Insights into the conformational stability & pharmacology of peptides through side chain and backbone modification
The first part of the work presented in the thesis deals with CH-pi interaction, which is a lesser-known non-covalent interaction in proteins. We identified several CH-pi donor-acceptor pairs involving amino acids side ...
Design, Synthesis, and Bioactivity of Thioamidated Macrocyclic Peptides
The work presented in this thesis describes the comprehensive study related to thioamidated macrocyclic peptides. We study the underexplored class of peptide bond isostere; thioamides in the context of small macrocyclic ...
Engineering Reverse Turns: Implications in Conformation, Stability and Bioactivity of Peptides and Proteins
The work presented in this thesis provides an overview of the potential role of N-methylation in inducing reverse turns. Backbone N-methylation is one of the common modifications designed by nature and exploited by humans ...
