Display selection of peptide ligands for helical aromatic foldamers

Abstract

Helical aromatic oligoamide foldamers with a cluster of five biogenic side chains at their surface were designed and synthesized. Display selection of thioether macrocyclic peptides against these targets generated low micromolar binders that are highly selective for the side-chain arrangement.
