Designing short antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), which are active against drug‐resistant bacteria, is a promising way to find new therapeutic agents. In this research, a novel short AMP, PL‐101‐WK, was designed based on PL‐101 (a derivative of plicatamide). Here, the substitution of Phe and His with Trp and Lys was considered. The antimicrobial activity and physicochemical properties of PL‐101‐WK were compared with PL‐101 by in silico analysis. The antimicrobial activity in the presence or absence of NaCl concentration, thermal stability, hemolytic activity, and selectivity of the peptides were determined. By substitution of Lys and Trp residues, positive charge, in vitro stability, and hydrophilicity of PL‐101‐WK were raised compared to the template. PL‐101‐WK had the best minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of 64 μg/ml against Staphylococcus aureus strains, which showed at least 16‐fold reduction when compared to the values of PL‐101. The MICs of PL‐101‐WK were retained toward S. aureus strains at physiological salt concentration. While PL‐101‐WK did not display acceptable thermal stability, it had desirable selectivity against bacteria. The maximum hemolytic activity of PL‐101‐WK was 1.65% at 512 μg/ml. Taken together, increasing positive charge and the presence of Trp residues were enhanced the potential of antibacterial activity of PL‐101.

设计对耐药细菌具有活性的短抗菌肽(AMPs)是寻找新的治疗药物的一种很有前途的方法。在这项研究中，基于PL‐101 (plicatamide的衍生物)设计了一种新的短AMP PL‐101‐WK。这里考虑用Trp和Lys取代Phe和His。通过硅分析比较了PL‐101‐WK与PL‐101的抑菌活性和理化性质。测定了在NaCl浓度存在或不存在情况下的抗菌活性、热稳定性、溶血活性和选择性。通过替换赖氨酸和色氨酸残基，与模板相比，PL‐101‐WK的正电荷、体外稳定性和亲水性都得到了提高。PL‐101‐WK对金黄色葡萄球菌的最低抑菌浓度(MIC)为64 μg/ml，比PL‐101降低了至少16倍。在生理盐浓度下，PL‐101‐WK对金黄色葡萄球菌的mic保持不变。虽然PL‐101‐WK没有表现出可接受的热稳定性，但它对细菌具有理想的选择性。在512 μg/ml浓度下，PL‐101‐WK的最大溶血活性为1.65%。综上所述，正电荷的增加和色氨酸残基的存在增强了PL‐101的抗菌活性。

C-terminal hydrazides are an important class of synthetic peptides with an ever expanding scope of applications, but their widespread application for chemical protein synthesis has been hampered due to the lack of stable resin linkers for synthesis of longer and more challenging peptide hydrazide fragments. We present a practical method for the regeneration, loading, and storage of trityl-chloride resins for the production of hydrazide containing peptides, leveraging 9-fluorenylmethyl carbazate. We show that these resins are extremely stable under several common resin storage conditions. The application of these resins to solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) is demonstrated through the synthesis of the 40-mer GLP-1R agonist peptide "P5". These studies support the broad utility of Fmoc-NHNH-Trt resins for SPPS of C-terminal hydrazide peptides.

C 端酰肼是一类重要的合成肽，其应用范围不断扩大，但由于缺乏稳定的树脂连接物来合成更长、更具挑战性的肽酰肼片段，其在化学蛋白质合成中的广泛应用一直受到阻碍。我们介绍了一种利用 9-芴基甲基肼酸盐再生、装载和储存三苯甲基氯树脂以生产含肼多肽的实用方法。我们的研究表明，在几种常见的树脂储存条件下，这些树脂都非常稳定。通过合成 40 聚体 GLP-1R 激动剂肽 "P5"，证明了这些树脂在固相肽合成 (SPPS) 中的应用。这些研究支持 Fmoc-NHNH-Trt 树脂在 C 端肼肽 SPPS 中的广泛应用。

Staphylococcus aureus is a highly adaptable pathogen that can rapidly develop resistance to conventional antibiotics such as penicillin. Recently, teixobactin was discovered from uncultivated soil bacteria by using the i-chip technology. This depsipeptide forms an ester bond between the backbone C-terminal isoleucine carboxylic acid and the hydroxyl group of threonine at position 8. Also, it contains multiple nonstandard amino acids, making it costly to synthesize. This study reports new peptides designed by linearizing teixobactin. After linearization and conversion to normal amino acids, teixobactin lost its antibacterial activity. Using this inactive template, a series of peptides were designed via hydrophobic patching and residue replacements. Three out of the five peptides were active. YZ105, only active against Gram-positive bacteria, however, showed the highest cell selectivity index. Different from teixobactin, which inhibits cell wall synthesis, YZ105 targeted the membranes of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) based on kinetic killing, membrane permeation, depolarization, and scanning electron microscopy studies. Moreover, YZ105 could kill nafcillin-resistant MRSA, Staphylococcal clinical strains, and disrupted preformed biofilms. Taken together, YZ105, with a simpler sequence, is a promising lead for developing novel anti-MRSA agents.

金黄色葡萄球菌是一种适应性很强的病原体，能迅速对青霉素等传统抗生素产生抗药性。最近，利用 i 芯片技术从未培育的土壤细菌中发现了 teixobactin。这种去肽在骨架 C 端异亮氨酸羧酸和第 8 位苏氨酸的羟基之间形成一个酯键。此外，它还含有多个非标准氨基酸，因此合成成本较高。本研究报告了通过线性化 Teixobactin 设计的新肽。在线性化并转化为正常氨基酸后，teixobactin 失去了抗菌活性。利用这种非活性模板，通过疏水修补和残基替换设计出了一系列肽。五种肽中有三种具有活性。YZ105 只对革兰氏阳性菌有活性，但却显示出最高的细胞选择性指数。与抑制细胞壁合成的teixobactin不同，根据动力学杀灭、膜渗透、去极化和扫描电子显微镜研究，YZ105靶向耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MRSA）的膜。此外，YZ105 还能杀灭耐纳西林的 MRSA 和葡萄球菌临床菌株，并破坏已形成的生物膜。综上所述，YZ105 的序列更简单，是开发新型抗 MRSA 药物的一个很有前景的先导物。

We report the development of a β‐turn mimic that allows the direct formation of cyclic peptides through a spontaneous cyclisation under standard solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) cleavage conditions. The mimic is formed via an acylhydrazone, which is either reduced in situ by triisopropylsilane‐trifluoroacetic acid, or which can be isolated and reduced in a separate step. This method uses commercially available reagents and is compatible with manual and automated SPPS methods. The cyclisation is tolerant of polar residues at the C‐terminal position, with the exception of asparagine, for which a subsequent structural rearrangement similar to aspartimide formation was observed. The cyclisation method has been shown to tolerate ring sizes equivalent to 5–10 amino acid residues. We have used this method to design and synthesise potential selective integrin binding sequences with controlled conformations.

我们报道了一种β - turn模拟物的开发，该模拟物允许在标准固相肽合成(SPPS)裂解条件下通过自发环化直接形成环状肽。模拟物是通过酰基腙形成的，它可以被三异丙基硅烷-三氟乙酸原位还原，或者可以在单独的步骤中分离和还原。该方法使用市售试剂，可与手动和自动SPPS方法兼容。环化对C末端的极性残基是耐受的，但天冬酰胺除外，其随后的结构重排类似于阿斯巴胺的形成。环化方法已被证明可以容忍相当于5-10个氨基酸残基的环大小。我们已经使用这种方法来设计和合成具有控制构象的潜在选择性整合素结合序列。

Synoeca‐MP is a 14‐residue amidated peptide, belongs to the mastoparan family and it is found in the venom of the wasp Synoeca surinama and has antibacterial and antifungal activity. The low cytotoxicity of the peptide also makes it an excellent candidate for drug development. To better understand its selectivity and interaction with the membrane, the peptide behavior in membrane‐like environments was studied here and the peptide structure in SDS micelles was determined by NMR spectroscopy. The behavior of the peptide in hydrophobic media and in different pH ranges was studied by CD spectroscopy. The incorporation of residues into the anionic micelles was studied by hydrogen‐deuterium exchange. The peptide stability and insertion in the micelles was studied by molecular dynamics simulations. Synoeca‐MP, bound to SDS micelles, exhibits a partial α‐helix conformation, with the first five residues and the last two unfolded. H/D exchange showed that the peptide has a slow exchange rate. After 164 h, four residues had not yet completed H/D substitution, suggesting parallel alignment of the peptide with the micelle, mainly due to the hydrophobic interface. This may indicate a carpet interaction model of the peptide with micelles. The molecular simulation study of peptide showed that the peptide consists of a well‐folded alpha‐helix core and unfolded extremities, which are responsible for the nature of the peptide interaction. The biophysical analyses can improve the atomic understanding of the mode of action of the peptide and help in future improvements of the peptide for clinical usage.

Synoeca‐MP是一种14个残基的酰胺化肽，属于乳突蛋白酶家族，存在于胡蜂鱼糜的毒液中，具有抗菌和抗真菌活性。该肽的低细胞毒性也使其成为药物开发的优秀候选者。为了更好地了解其选择性和与膜的相互作用，本文研究了肽在类膜环境中的行为，并通过NMR光谱测定了肽在SDS胶束中的结构。通过CD光谱研究了肽在疏水介质和不同pH范围内的行为。通过氢-氘交换研究了残留物在阴离子胶束中的结合。通过分子动力学模拟研究了肽在胶束中的稳定性和插入性。Synoeca‐MP与SDS胶束结合，呈现部分α螺旋构象，前五个残基和后两个未折叠。H/D交换表明该肽具有缓慢的交换速率。164之后 h、四个残基尚未完成h/D取代，这表明肽与胶束平行排列，主要是由于疏水界面。这可能表明肽与胶束的地毯式相互作用模型。肽的分子模拟研究表明，肽由折叠良好的α-螺旋核心和未折叠的末端组成，这是肽相互作用的本质。生物物理分析可以提高对肽作用模式的原子理解，并有助于未来临床使用肽的改进。

Plants subjected to phytopathogens can synthesize peptides with antimicrobial properties. In the last few decades, there has been an impressive increase in the prospection of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) due to continuous demand for the development and manufacture of new antibiotics. In this setting, plants have attracted scientific and pharmaceutical interest and are considered promising AMPs biofactories. However, it is a great challenge to explore the diversity of actions needed to obtain a pharmaceutical product with AMPs derived from plants on a large scale. This review presents the last 5 years main findings on plants used as AMPs biofactories. Published works in this period were reviewed, and perspectives are presented on recombinant AMPs for drug production that appear in a plant‐based system, as well as products available on the market.

Natural metalloenzymes stabilize metal centers by utilizing multiple imidazole moieties. Inspired by nature's design principles, the introduction of multiple azoles into ligands has been an effective method for constructing transition metal complexes. Herein, we describe a post‐synthetic modification of peptoids to incorporate multiple azoles on side chains. A simple substitution reaction between an azole (imidazole, pyrazole, 1,2,3‐triazole, and tetrazole) and a chloroalkyl‐containing peptoid provided access to a variety of azole‐containing peptoids. Ten azole‐containing peptoids were synthesized from a single chloroalkyl‐containing peptoid, and the efficiency of each azole for the substitution reaction was evaluated. We have identified that several of the azole‐containing peptoids are capable of binding with Cu(II) and Fe(III). Our synthetic approach can contribute to the expansion of peptoids' chemical diversity and the development of novel peptoids for metal recognition and catalysis.

Cyclic tungsten bis‐alkyne complexes derived from a 1,1′‐ferrocenyldialkyne (1 and 2) adopt a rigid conformation where the two alkynes are in a syn orientation and are likely positioned about 3.5 Å apart. Since intramolecular hydrogen bonding in protein secondary structures positions the donors and acceptors 3.3 Å apart, it is proposed that linking two peptides to the two alkynes in one of these complexes might be a way to generate a model system for generating peptide β‐sheets. To explore this question, a series of peptide derivatives of 1 were prepared. Attachment of peptides to the bimetallic ring system was achieved by reaction of peptide derivatives of 4‐iodobenzoic acid or 4‐iodoaniline with 1 via a Sonogashira coupling. Subsequent reaction of these dialkynes with W(CO)3(dmtc)2 (dmtc = dimethylditiocarbamate) afforded the desired cyclic tungsten bis‐alkyne complexes as a 1:1 mixture of diastereomers. The two diastereomers were not separable using typical chromatographic methods (TLC, HPLC and flash chromatography); however, their presence and relative amounts could be detected and measured in the 1H NMR spectra. The conformations of these peptide derivatives of 1 were examined using NMR and DFT methods. It was found that appending the peptides to the two alkynes did not alter the rigid conformation of the ferrocene‐tungsten bis‐alkyne ring system found in 1; the ring system remained rigid and retained the intramolecular hydrogen bond across the bimetallic ring system. Whether the amide and urethane NH protons in these complexes are involved in intramolecular hydrogen bonds was explored using a DMSO titration experiment and computational methods. Data from the DMSO titrations showed that there was only one robust intramolecular hydrogen bond, the hydrogen bond across the bimetallic ring; the other amide and urethane NH protons were accessible to the solvent. The DFT calculations showed the peptides attached to the bimetallic ring system can adopt a number of different orientations having similar energies, and that some of these conformations include cross‐strand hydrogen bonds. The data indicate that appending peptides to the bimetallic ring system via the two alkynes produces molecules where the two peptides are held in a parallel arrangement.

由1,1′-二茂铁二炔(1和2)衍生的环钨双炔配合物采用刚性构象，其中两个炔处于同步取向，可能相距约3.5 Å。由于蛋白质二级结构中的分子内氢键将供体和受体3.3 Å分开，因此提出将两个肽连接到其中一个络合物中的两个炔可能是生成生成肽β -片的模型系统的一种方法。为了探究这个问题，我们制备了一系列1的肽衍生物。通过Sonogashira偶联，4 -碘苯甲酸或4 -碘苯胺的肽衍生物与1发生反应，实现了肽与双金属环体系的附着。随后这些双炔与W(CO)3(dmtc)2 (dmtc =二甲双氨基甲酸酯)反应得到所需的环钨双炔配合物，为1:1的非对映体混合物。两种非对映体采用常规色谱方法(薄层色谱、高效液相色谱和闪蒸色谱)无法分离;然而，它们的存在和相对数量可以在1H NMR光谱中检测和测量。这些1的肽衍生物的构象用NMR和DFT方法进行了检测。结果发现，在两个炔上附加肽并不会改变2 -二茂铁-钨-双炔环体系的刚性构象;环体系保持刚性，并保留了跨双金属环体系的分子内氢键。通过DMSO滴定实验和计算方法，探讨了这些配合物中的酰胺和聚氨酯NH质子是否参与分子内氢键。DMSO滴定数据表明，分子内氢键只有一个，横跨双金属环的氢键;其他酰胺和氨基甲酸乙酯NH质子可被溶剂接触。DFT计算表明，附着在双金属环体系上的肽可以采用许多具有相似能量的不同取向，其中一些构象包括交叉链氢键。数据表明，通过两个炔将肽附加到双金属环系统中产生的分子中，两个肽保持平行排列。

Epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an important process leading to invasiveness of cancer cells and poor prognosis in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progression. Cilengitide (cyclo[RGDf(NMe)V]), a cyclic RGD pentapeptide, has been shown to enhance the inhibitory effect of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors on TGF‐β1‐induced mesenchymal marker expression and invasion by NSCLC A549 cells. In this study, we synthesized cilengitide and derivatives and evaluated their biological effects on TGF‐β1‐induced EMT phenotype marker expression and invasion in human NSCLC cells. Among the synthesized derivatives, R‐1 (cRGDwV) and R‐7 (cRGDyV) were found to be the most effective in inhibiting the growth of NSCLC cells. These cilengitide derivatives showed an inhibitory effect on the TGF‐β1‐induced EMT process and invasion through inhibition of Smad or non‐Smad signaling pathways in NSCLC A549 cells. Through this study, we demonstrated that cilengitide derivatives containing the RGD sequence and hydrophobic amino acids, such as cilengitide, exhibit inhibitory effects on NSCLC cell growth and EMT inhibition. In addition, the potential of these peptides as a drug that can be used to inhibit metastasis of various cancers accompanying the EMT process was suggested.

在非小细胞癌症（NSCLC）进展中，上皮-间质转化（EMT）是导致癌症细胞侵袭和预后不良的重要过程。Cilengitide（cyclo[RGDf（NMe）V]）是一种环状RGD五肽，已被证明可增强表皮生长因子受体（EGFR）抑制剂对TGF-β1诱导的NSCLC A549细胞间充质标志物表达和侵袭的抑制作用。在本研究中，我们合成了梭菌肽及其衍生物，并评估了它们对TGF-β1诱导的EMT表型标记物在人类NSCLC细胞中表达和侵袭的生物学作用。在合成的衍生物中，R‐1（cRGDwV）和R‐7（cRGDyV）被发现在抑制NSCLC细胞生长方面最有效。这些纤毛炎衍生物通过抑制NSCLC A549细胞中的Smad或非Smad信号通路，对TGF-β1诱导的EMT过程和侵袭表现出抑制作用。通过这项研究，我们证明了含有RGD序列和疏水性氨基酸的cileritide衍生物，如cileritie，对NSCLC细胞生长和EMT抑制具有抑制作用。此外，还提出了这些肽作为药物的潜力，可用于抑制伴随EMT过程的各种癌症的转移。
