We report the design of bisarylmethylene bromides as a new class of rigid, distance-matching cysteine cross-linkers. By cross-linking a peptide dual inhibitor of Mdm2/Mdmx containing cysteines at i,i+7 positions, dramatic enhancement in cell permeability was achieved, along with increased helicity and biological activity.
我们报告了双芳基亚甲基溴化物的设计,将其作为一类新型刚性、距离匹配半胱氨酸交联剂。通过交联含有 i,i+7 位半胱氨酸的 Mdm2/Mdmx 肽双抑制剂,实现了细胞通透性的显著增强,同时增加了螺旋度和生物活性。
