This book focuses on the development of stapled peptides, a novel
molecular modality used to regulate aberrant intracellular
protein-protein interactions (PPIs). The author designs and
presents a novel helical peptide stabilization methodology by
constructing a chiral cross-linker moiety, namely "chiral center
induced peptide helicity (CIH)". The book demonstrates that a
precisely positioned carbon chiral center on tether can decisively
determine the secondary structure of a peptide, and that the
R-configured peptide is helical, while the S-configured peptide is
non-helical. Further, it reports that helicity-enhanced R isomer
peptides displayed significantly enhanced cell permeability and
target binding affinity, as well as tumor inhibition efficiency, in
comparison to S isomer peptides. The book will not only advance
readers' understanding of the basic principle of stapled peptides,
but also accelerate the clinical transformation of stapled peptide
drugs.
