  • Acylation of hindered amines and functionalized bis-peptides obtained thereby
    Patent number: 8895739
    Abstract: Functionalized bis-peptides as well as other amide-containing compounds are obtained by acylation of hindered amines. The functionalized bis-peptides are useful as shape-programmable nanostructures that are immune to denaturation and that contain arrays of functional groups having designed catalytic, protein-binding and/or sensor capabilities.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 14, 2011
    Date of Patent: November 25, 2014
    Assignees: Temple University of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education, University of Pittsburgh of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education
    Inventors: Christian E. Schafmeister, Zachary Z. Brown
