Cyclicγ-aminoacids are molecular building blocks of great interest in peptide and foldamer chemistry, as they allow the preparation of new structures that are not found in Nature. In this paper, we describe the synthesis of cyclicγ-aminoacids that have a cis relationship between the amino and the carboxylic acid groups. This arrangement, in most cases, induces the resulting peptides to adopt a

A new class of self-assembling peptides based on cyclic peptides made of alternating 3-aminocyclohexanecarboxylic acid (gamma-Acc) and alpha-amino acids is described. The studied cylindrical assemblies are models for a new class of self-assembling peptide nanotubes (SPN) that present the particular property of having the C2 methylene group pointing toward the lumen of the cavity, modifying the properties of the inner surface of the assembly.
