AB - The mimicry of protein-sized β-sheet structures with unnatural peptidic sequences (foldamers) is a considerable challenge. In this work, the de novo designed betabellin-14 β-sheet has been used as a template, and α→β residue mutations were carried out in the hydrophobic core (positions 12 and 19). β-Residues with diverse structural properties were utilized: Homologous β3-amino acids, (1R,2S)-2-aminocyclopentanecarboxylic acid (ACPC), (1R,2S)-2-aminocyclohexanecarboxylic acid (ACHC), (1R,2S)-2-aminocyclohex-3-enecarboxylic acid (ACEC), and (1S,2S,3R,5S)-2-amino-6,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]heptane-3-carboxylic acid (ABHC). Six α/β-peptidic chains were constructed in both monomeric and disulfide-linked dimeric forms. Structural studies based on circular dichroism spectroscopy, the analysis of NMR chemical shifts, and molecular dynamics simulations revealed that dimerization induced β-sheet formation in the 64-residue foldameric systems. Core replacement with (1R,2S)-ACHC was found to be unique among the β-amino acid building blocks studied because it was simultaneously able to maintain the interstrand hydrogen-bonding network and to fit sterically into the hydrophobic interior of the β-sandwich. The novel β-sandwich model containing 25% unnatural building blocks afforded protein-like thermal denaturation behavior. Dissolving sandwiches: A water-soluble β-sandwich has been constructed by using cyclic β-amino acids in the hydrophobic core (see figure). The structural stability is highly dependent on the side-chain, and the destructuring effects of the β-residues could be minimized by using (1R,2S)-2-aminocyclohexanecarboxylic acid. The β-sandwich displays protein-like thermal denaturation behavior.

AB - The construction of bioactive peptides using β-amino acid-containing sequence patterns is a very promising strategy to obtain analogues that exhibit properties of high interest for medicinal chemistry applications. β-Amino acids have been shown to modulate the conformation, dynamics, and proteolytic susceptibility of native peptides. They can be either combined with α-amino acids by following specific patterns, which results in backbone architectures with well-defined orientations of the side chain functional groups, or assembled in de novo-designed bioactive β- or α,β-peptidic sequences. Such peptides display various biological functions, including antimicrobial activity, inhibition of protein-protein interactions, agonism/antagonism of GPCR ligands, and anti-angiogenic activity.

AB - The principles of beta-sheet folding and design for alpha-peptidic sequences are well established, while those for sheet mimetics containing homologated amino acid building blocks are still under investigation. To reveal the structure-function relations of beta-amino-acid-containing foldamers, we followed a top-down approach to study a series of alpha/beta-peptidic analogs of anginex, a beta-sheet-forming antiangiogenic peptide. Eight anginex analogs were developed by systematic alpha --> beta(3) substitutions and analyzed by using NMR and CD spectroscopy. The foldamers retained the beta-sheet tendency, though with a decreased folding propensity. beta-Sheet formation could be induced by a micellar environment, similarly to that of the parent peptide. The destructuring effect was higher when the alpha --> beta(3) exchange was located in the beta-sheet core. Analysis of the beta-sheet stability versus substitution pattern and the local conformational bias of the bulky beta(3)V and beta(3)I residues revealed that a mismatch between the H-bonding preferences of the alpha- and beta-residues played a minor role in the structure-breaking effect. Temperature-dependent CD and NMR measurements showed that the hydrophobic stabilization was scaled-down for the alpha/beta-peptides. Analysis of the biological activity of the foldamer peptides showed that four anginex derivatives dose-dependently inhibited the proliferation of a mouse endothelial cell line. The alpha --> beta(3) substitution strategy applied in this work can be a useful approach to the construction of bioactive beta-sheet mimetics with a reduced aggregation tendency and improved pharmacokinetic properties.

AB - Peptidic foldamers are known to exhibit increased diversity in the periodic secondary-structure space in comparison with their natural counterparts, but their higher-order self-organization has been studied less thoroughly. In theory, large-diameter peptide foldamer helices have the capability of self-recognition through axial helix-helix interactions (e.g., head-to-tail), but this phenomenon has previously been observed in only one instance. In this article we report on the discovery of the largest-diameter β-peptidic mixed helix to date, the H18/20P helix. Its formation is solvent-dependent and its folding occurs cooperatively through head-to-tail self-assembly in solution. These findings suggest that axial helix-helix interactions can serve as a new mode for the formation of tertiary/quaternary structures for peptide foldamers, which also show higher-order structural diversity than natural proteins. © 2013 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

AB - Background and AimsUnnatural self-organizing biomimetic polymers (foldamers) emerged as promising materials for biomolecule recognition and inhibition. Our goal was to construct multivalent foldamer-dendrimer conjugates which wrap the synaptotoxic β-amyloid (Aβ) oligomers with high affinity through their helical foldamer tentacles. Oligomeric Aβ species play pivotal role in Alzheimer's disease, therefore recognition and direct inhibition of this undruggable target is a great current challenge.
Methods and ResultsShort helical β-peptide foldamers with designed secondary structures and side chain chemistry patterns were applied as potential recognition segments and their binding to the target was tested with NMR methods (saturation transfer difference and transferred-nuclear Overhauser effect). Helices exhibiting binding in the µM region were coupled to a tetravalent G0-PAMAM dendrimer. In vitro biophysical (isothermal titration calorimetry, dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy and size-exclusion chromatography) and biochemical tests (ELISA and dot blot) indicated the tight binding between the foldamer conjugates and the Aβ oligomers. Moreover, a selective low nM interaction with the low molecular weight fraction of the Aβ oligomers was found. Ex vivo electrophysiological experiments revealed that the new material rescues the long-term potentiation from the toxic Aβ oligomers in mouse hippocampal slices at submicromolar concentration.
ConclusionsThe combination of the foldamer methodology, the fragment-based approach and the multivalent design offers a pathway to unnatural protein mimetics that are capable of specific molecular recognition, and has already resulted in an inhibitor for an extremely difficult target.

AB - Non-natural folded polymers (foldamers) display considerable versatility, and the design of such molecules is of great current interest. In this respect, peptidic foldamers are perhaps the best-characterized systems, as they populate a number of residue-controlled secondary structures, which have found various biological applications and have also led to the creation of nanostructured materials. This critical review covers recent developments related to diverse building blocks and modern foldamer design principles, such as the stereochemical patterning methods. The recent achievements concerning tertiary/quaternary structures and the self-assembling foldameric nanostructures are also addressed (176 references).

AB - Various patterns of foldameric oligomers formed by trans-ABHC ((1S,2S,3S, 5S)-2-amino-6,6-dimethylbicyclo-[3.3.1]heptane-3-carboxylic acid) and beta(3)-hSer residues were studied. NMR, ECD and molecular modelling demonstrated that octameric and nonameric sequences with multiple i-i+3 ABHC pair repulsions attain the beta-H18 helix in CD3OH. As a close relative of the alpha-helix, this helix type is stabilized by i-i+4 backbone H-bond interactions. The formation of the beta-H18 helix was found to be solvent-and concentration-dependent. Upon dilution, the beta-H18 -> beta-H12 helix transition was revealed by concentration-dependent ECD, DOSY-NMR and TEM measurements.

AB - The self-organizing beta-peptides have attracted considerable interest in the fields of foldamer chemistry and biochemistry. These compounds exhibit various stable secondary structure motifs that can be exploited to construct biologically active substances and nanostructured tertiary structures. The secondary structures can be controlled via the beta-amino acid sequence, and cyclic beta-amino acid residues play a crucial role in the design. The most important procedures for the preparation of cyclic beta-amino acid monomers and peptides are discussed in this tutorial review. Besides the secondary structure design principles, the methods of folded structure detection are surveyed.
