A (2R,3R)‐butanediol dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis (BsBDH) is engineered for the enantioselective synthesis of 2‐hydroxycyclohexanone. A PASS computational design strategy is proposed to enhance the thermostability of BsBDH. Moreover, ESM‐1v combined with ISM is utilized for enhancing and inverting its stereoselectivity.

Highly stable and tunable peptoid/hemin enzymatic mimetics with natural peroxidase-like activities
Peroxidase mimics are currently being investigated as catalysts for lignin depolymerisation. In this article, the authors investigate a class of self-assembled and highly stable peptoid/hemin nanomaterials as peroxidase mimics that are highly stable and ...

Pd(II)‐Catalyzed Strategies for the β‐Arylation of α‐Amino Acids: An Overview
The graphical abstract summarizes the review “Pd(II)‐Catalyzed Strategies for the β‐Arylation of α‐Amino Acids: An Overview”, highlighting representative Pd(II)‐catalyzed methods for the β‐arylation of α‐amino acids. Key mechanistic features, substrate diversity, and synthetic relevance of these transformations are showcased. Abstract Metal‐catalyzed C─

Exploiting protected maleimides to modify oligonucleotides, peptides and peptide nucleic acids [PDF]
This manuscript reviews the possibilities offered by 2,5-dimethylfuran-protected maleimides. Suitably derivatized building blocks incorporating the exo Diels-Alder cycloadduct can be introduced at any position of oligonucleotides, peptide nucleic acids ...

Peptoid special delivery [PDF]
Scientists at the University of Karlsruhe have designed peptoids that deliver therapeutics to intracellular targets without any toxic effects in vitro. The technique could produce carriers that deliver drugs exclusively to specific intracellular locations—if peptoids show as much promise in vivo.

Synthesis and Characterization of Glyco‐Decorated Silsesquioxane‐Metallosalen Complexes
Glyco‐decorated COSS‐metallosalen complexes were synthesized and characterized. Their metal ion‐dependent D4h or S4 geometry was experimentally verified by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction using model compounds with the same tetranuclear core. Ribonuclease activity of these complexes was studied, but it remained modest compared to other metal ion‐based

Cross Metathesis Assisted Solid-Phase Synthesis of Glycopeptoids [PDF]
A solid-phase synthesis of glycopeptoids was explored through olefin cross metathesis (CM). Peptoids and sugar derivatives with appropriate olefin moieties were coupled in the presence of an olefin metathesis catalyst to afford glycopeptoids in good ...

β-Peptoid Foldamers at Last [PDF]
For a long time, peptides were considered unsuitable for drug development due to their inherently poor pharmacokinetic properties and proteolytic susceptibility. However, this paradigm has changed significantly in the past decade with the approval of numerous antibodies and proteins as drugs.
