Abstract
Advancements in platform technologies have facilitated the production of libraries consisting of macrocyclic peptides composed of natural and non-canonical amino acids for more drug-like characteristics. Identification of macrocyclic peptide ligands against targets of interest can be accomplished using mRNA display. Despite numerous successful in vitro selections for macrocyclic peptide ligands against extracellular targets, identifying macrocyclic peptide hits that can reach intracellular targets continue to be a challenge. Breakthroughs in defining the features of a macrocyclic peptide that promote cell permeability have recently been disclosed. Here, we review the successful selections of non-standard macrocyclic peptide ligands using mRNA display in the last five years and chemical optimization of a drug-like macrocyclic peptide ligand for targeting intracellular KRAS.
期刊介绍:
The fledgling State of Israel began to publish its scientific activity in 1951 under the general heading of Bulletin of the Research Council of Israel, which quickly split into sections to accommodate various fields in the growing academic community. In 1963, the Bulletin ceased publication and independent journals were born, with Section A becoming the new Israel Journal of Chemistry.
The Israel Journal of Chemistry is the official journal of the Israel Chemical Society. Effective from Volume 50 (2010) it is published by Wiley-VCH.
The Israel Journal of Chemistry is an international and peer-reviewed publication forum for Special Issues on timely research topics in all fields of chemistry: from biochemistry through organic and inorganic chemistry to polymer, physical and theoretical chemistry, including all interdisciplinary topics. Each topical issue is edited by one or several Guest Editors and primarily contains invited Review articles. Communications and Full Papers may be published occasionally, if they fit with the quality standards of the journal. The publication language is English and the journal is published twelve times a year.
