Abstract
We have accomplished the total synthesis, structure determination, and biological evaluation of pargamicin A and one of its diastereomers. Two key tripeptide segments were synthesized using a linear peptide elongation process that includes the direct coupling of a poorly nucleophilic piperazic acid derivative. The resulting tripeptides were coupled using triphosgene/collidine at ambient temperature leading to a precursor for the final cyclization step. T3P-promoted macrolactamization under high-dilution conditions, followed by the removal of the benzyl protecting group was used to furnish two putative structures of pargamicin A. Comparison of the 1 H and 13 C NMR spectra and the antibacterial activity of the natural and synthetic products successfully revealed that the absolute configuration of the N-hydroxy-Ile residue of pargamicin A is 2S,3S. A biological evaluation of synthetically obtained pargamicin A and its diastereomer suggested that the stereostructure of the cyclic peptide scaffold of the natural product plays a crucial role in determining the strength of its antibacterial activity.

Abstract
A post-nanotechnology concept has been assigned to an emerging concept, nanoarchitectonics. Nanoarchitectonics aims to establish a discipline in which functional materials are fabricated from nano-scale components such as atoms, molecules, and nanomaterials using various techniques. Nanoarchitectonics opens ways to form a more unified paradigm by integrating nanotechnology with organic chemistry, supramolecular chemistry, material chemistry, microfabrication technology, and biotechnology. On the other hand, biological systems consist of rational organization of constituent molecules. Their structures have highly asymmetric and hierarchical features that allow for chained functional coordination, signal amplification, and vector-like energy and signal flow. The process of nanoarchitectonics is based on the premise of combining several different processes, which makes it easier to obtain a hierarchical structure. Therefore, nanoarchitectonics is a more suitable methodology for creating highly functional systems based on structural asymmetry and hierarchy like biosystems. The creation of functional materials by nanoarchitectonics is somewhat similar to the creation of functional systems in biological systems. It can be said that the goal of nanoarchitectonics is to create highly functional systems similar to those found in biological systems. This review article summarizes the synthesis of biomimetic and biological molecules and their functional structure formation from various viewpoints, from the molecular level to the cellular level. Several recent examples are arranged and categorized to illustrate such a trend with sections of (i) synthetic nanoarchitectonics for bio-related units, (ii) self-assembly nanoarchitectonics with bio-related units, (iii) nanoarchitectonics with nucleic acids, (iv) nanoarchitectonics with peptides, (v) nanoarchitectonics with proteins, and (vi) bio-related nanoarchitectonics in conjugation with materials.
