Hydroxamic Acids as HDAC Inhibitor Drug Leads for Malaria
ABSTRACT Malaria is a global health threat, with an estimated 282 million cases and 610,000 malaria‐associated deaths reported in 2024. Most mortality is due to infection by Plasmodium falciparum parasites, with the highest burden occurring in Sub‐Saharan Africa.

The degree of peptoid helicity can be effectively modulated by position-specific incorporation of alpha-chiral aromatic monomers. In this study, we report the structural role of each monomer position collected from 30 comprehensive model peptoid ...

In Vivo, In Vitro, and In Silico Characterization of Peptoids as Antimicrobial Agents. [PDF]
Bacterial resistance to conventional antibiotics is a global threat that has spurred the development of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and their mimetics as novel anti-infective agents.

Macrocyclic Tetramers—Structural Investigation of Peptide-Peptoid Hybrids
Outstanding affinity and specificity are the main characteristics of peptides, rendering them interesting compounds for basic and medicinal research. However, their biological applicability is limited due to fast proteolytic degradation.

A readily applicable strategy to convert peptides to peptoid-based therapeutics. [PDF]
Incorporation of unnatural amino acids and peptidomimetic residues into therapeutic peptides is highly efficacious and commonly employed, but generally requires laborious trial-and-error approaches.

Peptide‐enabled nanoplatforms offer multifunctional strategies for the treatment and diagnosis of malaria and leishmaniasis. Liposomal, polymeric, and metallic nanocarriers, together with cell‐penetrating peptides and parasite‐derived mimotopes, can improve targeted drug delivery, stability, bioavailability, and intracellular localization.

Inheritance of the apolipoprotein E4 (apoE4) genotype has been identified as the major genetic risk factor for late onset Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Studies have shown that apoE, apoE4 in particular, binds to amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides at residues 12-28 of ...

This work describes the study on a new recyclable reagent, based on a macrocyclic triazole–borane complex. It showed high chemoselectivity for aldehyde reduction and reductive amination over ketones. This selectivity is driven by a noncovalent hydride–proton interaction that stabilizes the transition state for aldehydes but is sterically inhibited in ...

Peptoid-peptide hybrids that bind syk SH2 domains involved in signal transduction
Peptoid-peptide hybrids are oligomeric peptidomimetics that contain one or more N-substituted glycine residues. In these hybrids, the side chains of one or several amino acids are shifted from the -carbon atom to the amide nitrogen atom.

Helical Folding of Abiotic Chiral Poly(phosphodiester)s
Design and structural analysis of a new class of phosphodiester foldamers are presented. These oligomers that fold into single helical architecture showed length and temperature stability dependence comparable to DNA duplexes. ABSTRACT Functions of biomolecules are intimately linked to their structures which result from the folding of a linear sequence
