Metallo-foldamers with backbone-coordinative oxime peptides: control of secondary structures.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Metal-mediated secondary structures of peptide-based foldamers were constructed using artificial backbone-coordinative oxime peptides. Complexation of the peptides with Pd(II) afforded several mononuclear and dinuclear secondary structures such as helices and hairpins as confirmed by single-crystal XRD and NMR analyses.

Synthesis and Structure of a/d-Hybrid Peptides—Access to Novel Helix Patterns in Foldamers
The generation of new systems by using non-natural polymers provides an excellent opportunity to test the rules that govern protein folding and function. Proteins carry out diversified functions in biological systems by adopting compact and well-defined three-dimensional folding patterns. Thus, the creation of novel structural diversity by designing new scaffolds allows us to obtain systems wit...
متن کاملFoldamers: from Design to Protein Recognition
Proteins and nucleic acids perform a wide range of complex functions in biological systems. Nearly all of these molecular operations require the biopolymer chain to adopt a compact and specific folding pattern. The conformational behavior of biopolymers is usually analyzed hierarchically: secondary structure reflects local features of the backbone (helix and sheet are the secondary structures w...
متن کاملHomochirality of β‐Peptides: A Significant Biomimetic Property of Unnatural Systems
Homochirality, an interesting phenomenon of life, is mainly an unresolved problem and was thought to be a property of living matter. Herein, we show that artificial β-peptides have the tendency toward homochiral diastereoselective chain elongation. Chain-length-dependent stereochemical discrimination was investigated in the synthesis of foldamers with various side chains and secondary structure...
متن کاملHexagonal Lyotropic Liquid Crystal from Simple “Abiotic” Foldamers
The motivation of foldamer chemistry is to identify novel building blocks that have the potential to imitate natural species. Peptides and peptide mimetics can form stable helical conformations and further self-assemble into diverse aggregates in water, where it is difficult to isolate a single helix. In contrast, most "abiotic" foldamers may fold into helical structures in solution, but are di...
متن کاملA post-modification approach to peptide foldamers.
Hydrophilic/hydrophobic patterning is a powerful strategy to control folding in non-natural polymers/oligomers. In this contribution, we present a novel strategy for the preparation of alternating hydrophilic/hydrophobic patterned non-natural peptide foldamers. This strategy relies on the post-modification of a reactive peptide precursor that can be prepared via standard solid phase peptide syn...
