Antifouling Peptoid Biointerfaces
Recent advances in synthetic chemistry has led to the increasingly sophisticated design and preparation of biofunctional polymeric surfaces and materials. In this regard, synthetic poly-(N-substituted glycine) “peptoids” which mimic the structure and function of peptides play an important role, since they may attain functionalities similar to natural ...

Direct Selection of Functional De Novo Macrocycles for Activation of On‐Cellulo Insulin Receptor
A live‐cell screening platform, RaPID‐ExCells, integrates mRNA display‐derived macrocyclic peptide libraries with functional selection against native cell‐surface receptors. Application to the insulin receptor enabled de novo discovery of a macrocyclic agonist that activates endogenous signaling despite weak in vitro binding, highlighting the power of ...

The first synthesis of functionalized -peptoid macrocycles is reported. X-ray crystallographic structure of tetramer 9 reveals a C2-symmetrical derivative with unexpected all-cis-amide bonds and spatial disposition of the appendages toward the two opposite faces of the ring. Quantum calculations suggest that 9 is locked in this layout.
