    Date of Patent: March 24, 2015
    Assignee: Aileron Therapeutics, Inc.
    Inventors: Vincent Guerlavais, Christopher R. Conlee, Scott Paul Lentini
  • Publication number: 20150051155
    Abstract: Provided herein are peptidomimetic macrocycles containing amino acid sequences with at least two modified amino acids that form an intramolecular cross-link that can help to stabilize a secondary structure of the amino acid sequence. Suitable sequences for stabilization include those with homology to the p53 protein. These sequences can bind to the MDM2 and/or MDMX proteins. Also provided herein are methods of using such macrocycles for the treatment of diseases and disorders, such as cancers or other disorders characterized by a low level or low activity of a p53 protein or high level of activity of a MDM2 and/or MDMX protein.
