Pyrrolinone–Pyrrolidine Oligomers as Universal Peptidomimetics
摘要:
Peptidomimetics 1-3 were prepared from amino acid-derived tetramic acids 7 as the key starting materials. Calculations show that preferred conformations of 1 can align their side-chain vectors with amino acids in common secondary structures more effectively than conformations of 3. A good fit was found for a preferred conformation of 2 (an extended derivative of 1) with a sheet/beta-turn/sheet motif.
Provided herein are compounds and methods of using same for the perturbation and/or inhibition of protein-protein interactions. Also provided herein is a data mining method useful for the identification of protein-protein interactions that may be inhibited by these compounds.
