Abstract: The disclosure provides GLP-1 receptor agonist compounds having stabilized regions corresponding to alpha-helical regions of the natural peptide compounds. The disclosure also provides benzamide-containing exendin-4 analogs and alkene-constrained exendin-4 analogs, both of which have stabilized regions corresponding to alpha-helical regions of exendin-4.

Abstract: The disclosure provides N-terminus conformationally constrained compounds, which may comprise peptide mimetics and/or amino acid substitutions, which may be used in peptides, such as GLP-1 receptor agonist compounds, to induce ?-turn secondary structure at the N-terminus. The N-terminus conformationally constrained compounds may be used for research purposes; to produce GLP-1 receptor agonist compounds having improved GLP-1 receptor binding activity, enzymatic stability, or in vivo glucose lowering activity; and to develop GLP-1 receptor agonist compounds which have fewer amino acid residues. The disclosure also provides GLP-1 receptor agonist compounds, such as exendins, exendin analogs, GLP-1(7-37), GLP-1(7-37) analogs, comprising the N-terminus conformationally constrained compounds. The compounds are useful for treating various diseases, such as diabetes and obesity. The disclosure also provides methods for chemically synthesizing the N-terminus conformationally constrained compounds.
