Characterization of Novel Antimicrobial Peptoids [PDF]
ABSTRACT Peptoids differ from peptides in that peptoids are composed of N-substituted rather than alpha-carbon-substituted glycine units. In this paper we report the in vitro and in vivo antibacterial activities of several antibacterial peptoids discovered by screening combinatorial chemistry libraries for bacterial growth ...

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

Orthogonal protection of peptides and peptoids for cyclization by the thiol-ene reaction and conjugation [PDF]
Cyclic peptides and peptoids were prepared using the thiol-ene Michael-type reaction. The linear precursors were provided with additional functional groups allowing for subsequent conjugation: an orthogonally protected thiol, a protected maleimide, or an

Peptomer Linkers Enable Kinetic Control over Co‐Delivery of Multiple Chemotherapeutics
A key challenge in combinatorial chemotherapeutic drug delivery is independent control over release kinetics, especially with drugs of similar size and structure. Here, peptoid substitutions to proteolytically degradable peptides enabled the design of fast and slow‐releasing drug linkers.

Isotactic poly(cyclohexene carbonate) crystalizes both as enantiopure polymer and upon stereocomplexation of the two opposite enantiomers. Both structures are characterized by multiple H‐‐‐O═C tight attractive interactions, whereas in the stereocomplex a tight interdigitation of the two enantiomeric chains occurs due to additional intimate dipole ...

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising therapeutics in the fight against multidrug‐resistant bacteria. As a mimic of AMPs, peptoids with N‐substituted glycine backbone have been utilized for antimicrobials with resistance against proteolytic ...

Targeted Drug Delivery using Peptoid Based Nanospheres [PDF]
While medicine has improved greatly in the last couple of decades, there are negative side effects that accompany many drugs. Undesirable side effects could be greatly reduced if non-systemic drug delivery systems were used because the medicine would ...

Proteasome Inhibitors: Harnessing Proteostasis to Combat Disease [PDF]
The proteasome is the central component of the main cellular protein degradation pathway. During the past four decades, the critical function of the proteasome in numerous physiological processes has been revealed, and proteasome activity has been linked
