The results from the extensive investigation of ten crystal structures and their NMR conformations in the solution state provide a clear idea about the conformational characteristics of the Ant-Pro reverse turn. The Ant and Pro residues, which form the turn segment, maintain a perfect antiperiplanar orientation throughout, leaving little possibility for the formation of the otherwise possible six-membered hydrogen-bonding that requires a coplanar disposition of the two amino acid residues, as clearly evident from investigation of several crystal structures. The closed hydrogen-bonded network observed in the Ant-Pro reverse turn motif, formed in the forward direction of the sequence (12 amino acid interactions) involving only two amino acid residues, is in stark contrast to the native -turns that involve four residues to form hydrogen-bonded network featuring backward 14 amino acid interactions. The readily available two-residue Ant-Pro motif raises the possibility of a practical utility, particularly in the application of rigidifying flexible peptide backbones by inserting the robust Ant-Pro reverse turn motifs into their backbone.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">17</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.154

When the H-bonding interactions deviate from regularity at the termini, peptide chains tend to ``fray apart''. However, the individual contributions of C-terminal esters in causing peptide chain end-fraying goes often unnoticed, particularly due to diverse competing effects emanating from large peptide chains. Herein, we describe a striking case of a comparison of the individual contributions of C-terminal ester vs. amide carbonyl as a H-bonding acceptor in the folding of a peptide. A simple two-residue peptide fold has been used as a testing case to demonstrate that amide carbonyl is far superior to ester carbonyl in promoting peptide folding, alienating end-fraying. This finding would have a bearing on the fundamental understanding of the individual contributions of stabilizing/destabilizing non-covalent interactions in peptide folding.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">48</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;3.487&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nair, Roshna V.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kheria, Sanjeev</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rayavarapu, Suresh</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kotmale, Amol S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jagadeesh, Bharatam</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gonnade, Rajesh G.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Puranik, Vedavati G.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rajamohanan, Pattuparambil R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sanjayan, Gangadhar J.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Synthetic zipper peptide motif orchestrated via co-operative interplay of hydrogen bonding, aromatic stacking, and backbone chirality</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of the American Chemical Society</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AUG</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">31</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AMER CHEMICAL SOC</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1155 16TH ST, NW, WASHINGTON, DC 20036 USA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">135</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11477-11480</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Here, we report on a new class of synthetic zipper peptide which assumes its three-dimensional zipper-like structure via a co-operative interplay of hydrogen bonding, aromatic stacking, and backbone chirality.

The emergence of diverse classes of unnatural amino acid building blocks has unleashed countless opportunities to design, develop and explore the structural and functional aspects of synthetic peptides. One current trend in foldamer chemistry is the heterofoldamer approach, which involves systematic stoichiometric variation of various natural/unnatural amino acid residues, leading to conformational ordering with intriguing structural architectures. In this regard, the incorporation of aromatic amino acids provides efficient structural rigidification and tunability to the molecular scaffolds, which can exhibit a range of secondary structural features. Recent times have witnessed an upsurge of foldamers featuring aliphatic-aromatic residues with diverse structural propensities. This review is an effort to cover this rapidly developing field of foldamer science and also to envisage its future perspectives.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.13</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nair, Roshna V.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Baravkar, Sachin B.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ingole, Tukaram S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sanjayan, Gangadhar J.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Synthetic turn mimetics and hairpin nucleators: quo vadimus?</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chemical Communications</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OCT</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">90</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">THOMAS GRAHAM HOUSE, SCIENCE PARK, MILTON RD, CAMBRIDGE CB4 0WF, CAMBS, ENGLAND</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">50</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">13874-13884</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Structural mimicry of peptides has witnessed perceptible progress in the last three decades.

The practice of mimicking, without altering the function of the bioactive core, ranges from conformational locking of the basic skeleton to total replacement of structural architecture using synthetic analogues. Development of heterogeneous backbones - using unnatural residues in place of natural ones - has broadened further opportunities for efficient structural rigidification.
