Novel tetrameric cell penetrating antimicrobial peptoids effective against mycobacteria and drug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2022
Background: Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are short, cationic, amphipathic molecules that have gained tremendous popularity as alternatives to traditional antibiotics due to their lower propensity to develop bacterial resistance.

Real‐Time Monitoring of Multitarget Antimicrobial Mechanisms of Peptoids Using Label‐Free Imaging with Optical Diffraction Tomography

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2023
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 ...

Solid-Phase Synthesis of N-Substituted Glycine Oligomers (α‑Peptoids) and Derivatives

open access: yesMolecules, 2010
Peptoids (N-substituted polyglycines and extended peptoids with variant backbone amino-acid monomer units) are oligomeric synthetic polymers that are becoming a valuable molecular tool in the biosciences.

Learning from host-defense peptides: cationic, amphipathic peptoids with potent anticancer activity.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Cationic, amphipathic host defense peptides represent a promising group of agents to be developed for anticancer applications. Poly-N-substituted glycines, or peptoids, are a class of biostable, peptidomimetic scaffold that can display a great diversity ...

Potent Antiviral Activity against HSV-1 and SARS-CoV-2 by Antimicrobial Peptoids

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2021
Viral infections, such as those caused by Herpes Simplex Virus-1 (HSV-1) and SARS-CoV-2, affect millions of people each year. However, there are few antiviral drugs that can effectively treat these infections.

Design, Synthesis, and Characterization of Heparin-Binding Peptoids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A series of N-substituted glycine oligomers (peptoids) of varying length and side chains was synthesized with the aim of producing peptidomimetics that would bind with high affinity to heparin and thereby neutralize its anticoagulant activity.

A Peptoid-Chelator Selective to Cu2+ That Can Extract Copper from Metallothionein-2 and Lead to the Production of ROS

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Copper is an essential metal ion that is involved in critical cellular processes, but which can also exhibit toxic effects through its ability to catalyze reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation. Dysregulation of copper homeostasis has been implicated in
