Antifouling Peptoid Biointerfaces

open access: yes, 2020
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

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 17, 20 April 2026.
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 multicomponent approach to N-methyl peptides: total synthesis of antibacterial (–)-viridic acid and analogues

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2012
Two syntheses of natural viridic acid, an unusual triply N-methylated peptide with two anthranilate units, are presented. The first one is based on peptide-coupling strategies and affords the optically active natural product in 20% overall yield over six

Cyclic β-Peptoids

open access: yesOrganic Letters, 2008
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.
