  • &bgr;-polypeptide foldamers of well-defined secondary structure
    Patent number: 6613876
    Abstract: Disclosed are &bgr;-peptides containing cylcoalkyl, cycloalkenyl, and heterocylic substituents which encompass the &agr; and &bgr; carbons of the peptide backbone. The &bgr;-peptides adopt stable helical and sheet structures in both the solid state and in solution. Method of generating combinatorial libraries of peptides containing &bgr;-peptide residues and the libraries formed thereby are disclosed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 15, 1999
    Date of Patent: September 2, 2003
    Assignee: Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation
    Inventors: Samuel H. Gellman, Daniel H. Appella, Laurie A. Christianson, Daniel A. Klein, Susanne Krauthäuser, Yong Jun Chung, Xifang Wang
  • .beta.-polypeptide foldamers of well-defined secondary structure
    Patent number: 6060585
    Abstract: Disclosed are .beta.-peptides containing cylcoalkyl, cycloalkenyl, and heterocylic substituents which encompass the .alpha. and .beta. carbons of the peptide backbone. The .beta.-peptides adopt stable helical and sheet structures in both the solid state and in solution. Method of generating combinatorial libraries of peptides containing .beta.-peptide residues and the libraries formed thereby are disclosed.
