Abstract
Rational design of unnatural amino acid building blocks capable of stabilizing predictable secondary structures similar to protein fragments is pivotal for foldamer chemistry/catalysis. Here, we introduce novel β-amino acid building blocks: [1S,2R,4R]exoCDA and [1S,2S,4R]endoCDA, derived from the abundantly available R(+)-camphor, which is traditionally known for its medicinal value. Further, we demonstrate that the homooligomers of exoCDA adopt 6-strand conformation, which switches to a robust 10/12-helix simply by inserting flexible β-hGly spacer at alternate positions (1 : 1 β-hGly/exoCDA heterooligomers), as evident by DFT-calculations, solution-state NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of crystalline-state structure of left-handed 10/12-mixed helix, that is free from the conventional approach of employing β-amino acids of either alternate chirality or alternate β2/β3 substitutions, to access the 10/12-helix. The results also show that the homooligomers of heterochiral exoCDA don't adopt helical fold, instead exhibit banana-shaped strands, whereas the homodimers of the other diastereomer endoCDA, nucleate 8-membered turns. Furthermore, the homo-exoCDA and hetero-[β-hGly-exoCDA] oligomers are found to exhibit self-association properties with distinct morphological features. Overall, the results offer new possibilties of constructing discrete stable secondary and tertiary structures based on CDAs, which can accommodate flexible residues with desired side-chain substitutions.

Abstract
Developing unique mechanisms of action are essential to combat the growing issue of antimicrobial resistance. Supramolecular assemblies combining the improved biostability of non-natural compounds with the complex membrane-attacking mechanisms of natural peptides are promising alternatives to conventional antibiotics. However, for such compounds the direct visual insight on antibacterial action is still lacking. Here we employ a design strategy focusing on an inducible assembly mechanism and utilized electron microscopy (EM) to follow the formation of supramolecular structures of lysine-rich heterochiral β3-peptides, termed lamellin-2K and lamellin-3K, triggered by bacterial cell surface lipopolysaccharides. Combined molecular dynamics simulations, EM and bacterial assays confirmed that the phosphate-induced conformational change on these lamellins led to the formation of striped lamellae capable of incising the cell envelope of Gram-negative bacteria thereby exerting antibacterial activity. Our findings also provide a mechanistic link for membrane-targeting agents depicting the antibiotic mechanism derived from the in-situ formation of active supramolecules.

Versatile Post-synthetic Modifications of Helical β-Peptide Foldamers Derived from a Thioether-Containing Cyclic β-Amino Acid. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202305196. [PMID: 37309575 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202305196] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2023] [Revised: 05/30/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
We introduce a novel cyclic β-amino acid, trans-(3S,4R)-4-aminotetrahydrothiophene-3-carboxylic acid (ATTC), as a versatile building block for designing peptide foldamers with controlled secondary structures. We synthesized and characterized a series of β-peptide hexamers containing ATTC using various techniques, including X-ray crystallography, circular dichroism, and NMR spectroscopy. Our findings reveal that ATTC-containing foldamers can adopt 12-helical conformations similar to their isosteres and offer the possibility of fine-tuning their properties via post-synthetic modifications. In particular, chemoselective conjugation strategies demonstrate that ATTC provides unique post-synthetic modification opportunities, which expand their potential applications across diverse research areas. Collectively, our study highlights the versatility and utility of ATTC as an alternative to previously reported cyclic β-amino acid building blocks in both structural and functional aspects, paving the way for future research in the realm of peptide foldamers and beyond.

Abstract
The concept of chemically evolvable replicators is central to abiogenesis. Chemical evolvability requires three essential components: energy-harvesting mechanisms for nonequilibrium dissipation, kinetically asymmetric replication and decomposition pathways, and structure-dependent selective templating in the autocatalytic cycles. We observed a UVA light-fueled chemical system displaying sequence-dependent replication and replicator decomposition. The system was constructed with primitive peptidic foldamer components. The photocatalytic formation-recombination cycle of thiyl radicals was coupled with the molecular recognition steps in the replication cycles. Thiyl radical-mediated chain reaction was responsible for the replicator death mechanism. The competing and kinetically asymmetric replication and decomposition processes led to light intensity-dependent selection far from equilibrium. Here, we show that this system can dynamically adapt to energy influx and seeding. The results highlight that mimicking chemical evolution is feasible with primitive building blocks and simple chemical reactions.

Abstract
Ladder-type pentaphenyl chromophores have a rigid, planar π-system and show bright fluorescence featuring pronounced vibrational structure. Such moieties are ideal for studying interchromophoric interactions and delocalization of electronic excitations. We report the synthesis of helical polymers with a rigid square structure based on spiro-linked ladder-type pentaphenyl units. The variation of circular dichroism with increasing chain length provides direct evidence for delocalization of electronic excitations over at least 10 monomeric units. The change in the degree of circular polarization of the fluorescence across the vibronic side bands shows that vibrational motion can localize the excitation dynamically to almost one single unit through breakdown of the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. The dynamic conversion between delocalized and localized excited states provides a new paradigm for interpreting circular dichroism in helical polymers such as proteins and polynucleic acids.

Abstract
S100 proteins are small, typically homodimeric, vertebrate-specific EF-hand proteins that establish Ca2+-dependent protein-protein interactions in the intra- and extracellular environment and are overexpressed in various pathologies. There are about 20 distinct human S100 proteins with numerous potential partner proteins. Here, we used a quantitative holdup assay to measure affinity profiles of most members of the S100 protein family against a library of chemically synthetized foldamers. The profiles allowed us to quantitatively map the binding promiscuity of each member towards the foldamer library. Since the library was designed to systematically contain most binary natural amino acid side chain combinations, the data also provide insight into the promiscuity of each S100 protein towards all potential naturally occurring S100 partners in the human proteome. Such information will be precious for future drug design to interfere with S100 related pathologies.

Abstract
Peptide soft materials belong to an emerging branch of materials sciences due to their growing importance as responsive materials in diagnostics, therapeutics, and biomedical applications. The diversity provided by easily modifiable peptide sequences can be further increased by introducing nonnatural amino acids such as cyclic β-amino acids, leading to the formation of foldamers. Moreover, it is possible to combine peptide chains with other polymers, aromatic compounds, etc. to create hybrids with completely new properties and applications. In this review, we focus on the cis/trans enantiomers of three cyclic β-amino acids: 2-aminocyclobutane-1-carboxylic acid (ACBC), 2-aminocyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid (ACPC) and 2-aminocyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid (ACHC). The peptides discussed here either contain exclusively β-amino acids or are α,β-peptides, and they undergo self-assembly by forming different interactions that lead to the creation of well-defined nanostructures.

Abstract
The conformational preferences of oligomers of δ-amino acid (δAc5 a) with a cyclopentyl constraint in the Cβ -Cγ bond of the backbone were investigated by using DFT methods in the gas phase and in solution. The folded structures with C10 H-bonded pseudocycles were most preferred for dimer and tetramer of δAc5 a residues both in chloroform and water. However, for the hexameric Ac-(δAc5 a)6 -NHMe, the mixed H16/14 helical structure was found to be most preferred in chloroform (populated at 68 %), whereas the H14 helical structure was the most dominant conformation in water (populated at 60 %). The stability of the former was ascribed to the intrinsic conformational energy, whereas the solvation free energy was crucial to stabilize the latter. Pyrrolidine-substituted analogues of the hexameric Ac-(δAc5 a)6 -NHMe, with adjacent amine diads that are almost exactly one turn apart with two nitrogen atoms separated by ca. 5.5 Å, adopted helical structures. They are potential catalysts in nonpolar and polar solvents as they have similar structures to a helical 1 : 2 α:β-heptapeptide that exhibited good catalytic performance in the crossed aldol condensation.

Abstract
Complementary to hydrophobic five membered ring β-amino acids (e.g. ACPC), β-sugar amino acids (β-SAAs) have found increasing application as hydrophilic building blocks of foldamers and α/β chimeric peptides. Fmoc-protected β-SAAs [e.g. Fmoc-RibAFU(ip)-OH] are indeed useful Lego elements, ready to use for SPPS. The removal of 1,2-OH isopropylidene protecting group increasing the hydrophilicity of such SAA is presented here. We first used N3-RibAFU(ip)-OH model compound to optimize mild deprotection conditions. The formation of the 1,2-OH free product N3-RibAFU-OH and its methyl glycoside methyl ester, N3-RibAFU(Me)-OMe were monitored by RP-HPLC and found that either 50% TFA or 8 eqv. Amberlite IR-120 H+ resin in MeOH are optimal reagents for the effective deprotection. These conditions were then successfully applied for the synthesis of chimeric oligopeptide: -GG-X-GG- [X=RibAFU(ip)]. We found the established conditions to be effective and-at the same time-sufficiently mild to remove 1,2-O-isopropylidene protection and thus, it is proposed to be used in the synthesis of oligo- and polypeptides of complex sequence combination.

Abstract
The fragment-centric design promises a means to develop complex xenobiotic protein surface mimetics, but it is challenging to find locally biomimetic structures. To address this issue, foldameric local surface mimetic (LSM) libraries were constructed. Protein affinity patterns, ligand promiscuity and protein druggability were evaluated using pull-down data for targets with various interaction tendencies and levels of homology. LSM probes based on H14 helices exhibited sufficient binding affinities for the detection of both orthosteric and non-orthosteric spots, and overall binding tendencies correlated with the magnitude of the target interactome. Binding was driven by two proteinogenic side chains and LSM probes could distinguish structurally similar proteins with different functions, indicating limited promiscuity. Binding patterns displayed similar side chain enrichment values to those for native protein-protein interfaces implying locally biomimetic behavior. These analyses suggest that in a fragment-centric approach foldameric LSMs can serve as useful probes and building blocks for undruggable protein interfaces.

Abstract
Different classes of foldamers, which are synthetic oligomers that adopt well-defined conformations in solution, have been the subject of extensive studies devoted to the elucidation of the forces driving their secondary structures and their potential as bioactive molecules. Regardless of the backbone type (peptidic or abiotic), the most important features of foldamers are the high stability, easy predictability and tunability of their folding, as well as the possibility to endow them with enhanced biological functions, with respect to their natural counterparts, by the correct choice of monomers. Foldamers have also recently started playing a starring role in the self-assembly of higher-order structures. In this review, selected articles will be analyzed to show the striking number of self-assemblies obtained for foldamers with different backbones, which will be analyzed in order of increasing complexity. Starting from the simplest self-associations in solution (e.g., dimers of β-strands or helices, bundles, interpenetrating double and multiple helices), the formation of monolayers, vesicles, fibers, and eventually nanostructured solid tridimensional morphologies will be subsequently described. The experimental techniques used in the structural investigation, and in the determination of the driving forces and mechanisms underlying the self-assemblies, will be systematically reported. Where applicable, examples of biomimetic self-assembled foldamers and their interactions with biological components will be described.

Abstract
Self-assembly of an acyclic β3-hexapeptide with alternating side chain chirality, into nanometer size oligomeric bundles showing membrane activity and hosting capacity for hydrophobic small molecules.
Self-assembling peptides offer a versatile set of tools for bottom-up construction of supramolecular biomaterials. Among these compounds, non-natural peptidic foldamers experience increased focus due to their structural variability and lower sensitivity to enzymatic degradation. However, very little is known about their membrane properties and complex oligomeric assemblies – key areas for biomedical and technological applications. Here we designed short, acyclic β3-peptide sequences with alternating amino acid stereoisomers to obtain non-helical molecules having hydrophilic charged residues on one side, and hydrophobic residues on the other side, with the N-terminus preventing formation of infinite fibrils. Our results indicate that these β-peptides form small oligomers both in water and in lipid bilayers and are stabilized by intermolecular hydrogen bonds. In the presence of model membranes, they either prefer the headgroup regions or they insert between the lipid chains. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations suggest the formation of two-layered bundles with their side chains facing opposite directions when compared in water and in model membranes. Analysis of the MD calculations showed hydrogen bonds inside each layer, however, not between the layers, indicating a dynamic assembly. Moreover, the aqueous form of these oligomers can host fluorescent probes as well as a hydrophobic molecule similarly to e.g. lipid transfer proteins. For the tested, peptides the mixed chirality pattern resulted in similar assemblies despite sequential differences. Based on this, it is hoped that the presented molecular framework will inspire similar oligomers with diverse functionality.

Abstract
Foldamers are non-natural oligomers that mimic the structural behaviour of natural peptides, proteins and nucleotides by folding into a well-defined 3D conformation in solution. Since their first description about two decades ago, numerous studies have been undertaken dealing with the design, synthesis, characterization and application of foldamers. They have huge application potential as antimicrobial, anticancer and anti-HIV agents and in materials science. Despite their importance, there is no publicly available web resource providing comprehensive information on these compounds. Here we describe FoldamerDB, an open-source, fully annotated and manually curated database of peptidic foldamers. FoldamerDB holds the information about the sequence, structure and biological activities of the foldamer entries. It contains the information on over 1319 species and 1018 activities, collected from more than 160 research papers. The web-interface is designed to be clutter-free, user-friendly and it is compatible with devices of different screen sizes. The interface allows the user to search the database, browse and filter the foldamers using multiple criteria. It also offers a detailed help page to assist new users. FoldamerDB is hoped to bridge the gap in the freely available web-based resources on foldamers and will be of interest to diverse groups of scientists from chemists to biologists. The database can be accessed at http://foldamerdb.ttk.hu/.

Abstract
Homochirality, an interesting phenomenon of life, is mainly an unresolved problem and was thought to be a property of living matter. Herein, we show that artificial β-peptides have the tendency toward homochiral diastereoselective chain elongation. Chain-length-dependent stereochemical discrimination was investigated in the synthesis of foldamers with various side chains and secondary structures. It was found that there is a strong tendency toward the synthesis of homochiral oligomers. The size of the side chain drastically influenced the selectivity of the stereodiscriminative chain-elongation reaction. It is noteworthy that water as the co-solvent increases the selectivity. Such behavior is a novel fundamental biomimetic property of foldamers with a potential of future industrial application.

Abstract
Unfolding of helical trans-β(2,3) -hybrid peptides with (α-β)n α composition, when executed by increasing solvent polarity or temperature, proceeded in a systematic manner with the turns unwinding sequentially; C-terminal region of these peptides were first to unwind and the process propagated towards N terminus with more and more β residues equilibrating from the gauche to the anti rotameric state across Cα-Cβ . This is evidenced by clear change in their Cβ H signal splitting, (3)JCαH-CβH values, and sequential disappearance of i,i+2 NOEs.

Abstract
Oligo-γ-peptides based on 2-aminocyclopentylacetic acid (γAc5a) with a cyclopentyl constraint on the Cβ–Cγ bond and homochiral (1S,2S) configurations preferentially adopt the right-handed 14-helix foldamers in the gas phase and in solution.

Abstract
Tetrameric H10/12 helix stabilization was achieved by the application of aromatic side-chains in β-peptide oligomers by intramolecular backbone-side chain CH-π interactions. Because of the enlarged hydrophobic surface of the oligomers, a further aim was the investigation of the self-assembly in a polar medium for the β-peptide H10/12 helices. NMR, ECD, and molecular modeling results indicated that the oligomers formed by cis-[1S,2S]- or cis-[1R,2R]-1-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-carboxylic acid (ATENAC) and cis-[1R,2S]- or cis-[1S,2R]-2-aminocyclohex-3-enecarboxylic acid (ACHEC) residues promote stable H10/12 helix formation with an alternating backbone configuration even at the tetrameric chain length. These results support the view that aromatic side-chains can be applied for helical structure stabilization. Importantly, this is the first observation of a stable H10/12 helix with tetrameric chain-length. The hydrophobically driven self-assembly was achieved for the helix-forming oligomers, seen as vesicles in transmission electron microscopy images. The self-association phenomenon, which supports the helical secondary structure of these oligomers, depends on the hydrophobic surface area, because a higher number of aromatic side-chains yielded larger vesicles. These results serve as an essential element for the design of helices relating to the H10/12 helix. Moreover, they open up a novel area for bioactive foldamer construction, while the hydrophobic area gained through the aromatic side-chains may yield important receptor-ligand interaction surfaces, which can provide amplified binding strength.

Abstract
In this work, we have examined the amide-I characteristics of three β-peptide oligomers in typical helical conformations (two in 14-helix and one in 12/10-helix), solvated in water, methanol, and chloroform, respectively. Local-mode frequencies and their distributions were computed using a molecular-mechanics force field based frequency map that was constructed on the basis of molecular dynamics simulations. The local-mode frequencies were found to be determined primarily by peptide backbone and side chain, rather by solvent, suggesting their local structural sensitivities. Intermode vibrational couplings computed using a transition dipole scheme were found to be very sensitive to peptide conformation, with their signs and magnitudes varying periodically along the peptide chain. Linear infrared absorption spectra of the three peptides, simulated using a frequency-frequency time-correlation function method, were found to be in fair agreement with experimental results. Normalized potential energy distribution analysis indicated that the amide-I mode can delocalize over a few amide units. However, the IR band structure appears to be more sophisticated in helical β-peptides than in helical α-peptides.

Abstract
Chirality of the monomeric residues controls and determines the prevalent folding of small oligopeptides (from di- to tetramers) composed of 2-aminocyclobutane-1-carboxylic acid (ACBA) derivatives with the same or different absolute and relative configuration. The cis-form of the monomeric ACBA gives rise to two conformers, namely, Z6 and Z8, while the trans-form manifests uniquely as an H8 structure. By combining these subunits in oligo- and polypeptides, their local structural preference remains, thus allowing the rational design of new short foldamers. A lego-type molecular architecture evolves; the overall look depends only on the conformational properties of the structural building units. A versatile and efficient method to predict the backbone folds of designed cyclobutane β-peptides is based on QM calculations. Predictions are corroborated by high-resolution NMR studies on selected stereoisomers, most of them being new foldamers that have been synthesized and characterized for the first time. Thus, the chiral expression of monomeric building units results in the defined secondary structures of small oligomers. As a result of this study, a new set of chirality controlled foldamers is provided to probe as biocompatible biopolymers.

Abstract
The synthesis of homochiral homo-oligomers of cis- and trans-3-aminotetrahydrofuran-2-carboxylic acids (parent cis- and trans-furanoid-β-amino acids, referred to as "cis-/trans-FAA") has been carried out to understand their secondary structures and their dependence on the ring heteroatom. The oligomers of two diastereomers have been shown to have a distinct left-handed helicity. The cis-FAA homo-oligomers show a 14-helix structure, in contrast to the homo-oligomers of cis-ACPC, which adopt a sheet like structure. The trans-FAA homo-oligomers were found to adopt a 12-helix structure, the same trend found in trans-ACPC homo-oligomers. With the help of ab initio calculations, the structural features of cis-ACPC and cis-FAA hexamers were compared. We believe that the more compact packing of the cis-FAA hexapeptide should be due to a more favorable interaction between the ring and the backbone amide hydrogen.
