A Peptoid-Based Fluorescent Sensor for Cyanide Detection
Peptoids, N-substituted glycine oligomers, are versatile peptidomimetics with diverse biomedical applications. However, strategies to the development of novel fluorescent peptoids as chemical sensors have not been extensively explored, yet.

Amphipathic peptoid transporters for protein and nanoparticle delivery [PDF]
The development of efficient intracellular delivery vectors requires a precise balance between cellular uptake and minimal cytotoxicity. Here, we describe a series of cationic amphipathic peptoids designed to evaluate how sequence variation controls cell

Topology-Dependent Antifreeze Properties of Biomimetic Linear and Star-Shaped Peptoids [PDF]
Developing safe and efficient cryoprotectants is critical for effective cryopreservation in biomedical applications. Inspired by natural antifreeze proteins (AFPs), a series of linear and star-shaped peptoids featuring isopropanol side chains to mimic ...

Applying a Hydrophilic Modified Hollow Fiber Membrane to Reduce Fouling in Artificial Lungs
Membranes for use in high gas exchange lung applications are riddled with fouling. The goal of this research is to create a membrane that can function in an artificial lung until the actual lung becomes available for the patient.

Cis-trans isomerization of peptoid residues in the collagen triple-helix
Cis-peptide bonds are rare in proteins, and building blocks less favorable to the trans-conformer have been considered destabilizing. Although proline tolerates the cis-conformer modestly among all amino acids, for collagen, the most prevalent proline ...

Peptoid microsphere coatings to improve performance in sandwich ELISA microarrays
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) microarray performance is limited by low assay sensitivity and dynamic range. Increasing the surface area for reagent binding can help to improve performance, but standard techniques such as roughening the ...

Sequence Changes Modulate Peptoid Self-Association in Water
Peptoids, N-substituted glycine oligomers, are a class of diverse and sequence-specific peptidomimetics with wide-ranging applications. Advancing the functional repertoire of peptoids to emulate native peptide and protein functions requires engineering ...

A Rapid and Efficient Building Block Approach for Click Cyclization of Peptoids
Cyclic peptide-peptoid hybrids possess improved stability and selectivity over linear peptides and are thus better drug candidates. However, their synthesis is far from trivial and is usually difficult to automate.
