          Abstract

          Carbonylative assembly of pyrazine based oligoamide alpha-helix mimetics.

          Abstract

          The design and synthesis of oligoamide α-helix peptidomimetics is reported. The oligoamide type systems are prepared in a modular fashion by coupling the monomers using palladium-catalyzed carbonylation chemistry. This enabled us to use substrates with a low nucleophilicity, leading to previously unreported pyrazine based oligoamide α-helix mimetics. The proof of principle is given by synthesizing a small set of compounds. Various end-capping groups were introduced and also a mixed multimer was successfully prepared.

            Inhibition of α-helix-mediated protein-protein interactions using designed molecules.

            Inhibition of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) represents a significant challenge because it is unclear how they can be effectively and selectively targeted using small molecules. Achieving this goal is critical given the defining role of these interactions in biological processes. A rational approach to inhibitor design based on the secondary structure at the interface is the focus of much research, and different classes of designed ligands have emerged, some of which effectively and selectively disrupt targeted PPIs. This Review discusses the relevance of PPIs and, in particular, the importance of α-helix-mediated PPIs to chemical biology and drug discovery with a focus on designing inhibitors, including constrained peptides, foldamers and proteomimetic-derived ligands. In doing so, key challenges and major advances in developing generic approaches for the elaboration of PPI inhibitors are highlighted. The challenges faced in developing such ligands as drug leads--and how criteria applied to these may differ from conventional small-molecule drugs--are summarized.
