Diaminodiacid‐Based Solid‐Phase Synthesis of Peptide Disulfide Bond Mimics

Abstract

The antimicrobial peptide tachyplesin I was used as a model to apply the title strategy, which was developed for the preparation of peptidic macrocycles with double disulfide surrogates. The folding and activity of the tachyplesin I analogues were found to be sensitive to the structure of the disulfide surrogates, thus underlining the necessity of a flexible synthetic route for generating disulfide bond surrogates with high structural diversity.
