Abstract:Stapled peptides are a unique class of cyclic alpha-helical peptides that are conformationally constrained via their amino acid side-chains. They have been transformative to the field of chemical biology and peptide drug discovery through addressing many of the physicochemical limitations of linear peptides. However, there are several issues with current chemical strategies to produce stapled peptides. For example, two distinct unnatural amino acids (R8 and S5) are required for synthesis of i, i + 7 alkene sta… Show more
