A model β-sheet interaction and thermodynamic analysis of β-strand mimetics

Abstract

β-Sheet mediated protein–protein interactions are involved in key signalling pathways in diseases such as cancer. We present small molecule β-strand mimetics and investigate their interactions with a model tripeptide. Using 1H NMR, the thermodynamic parameters for their binding are determined. These give insight into this biologically important interaction.
