Resumo

The benzodiazepine (BZD) peptidomimetic I has been substituted for the naturally occurring four amino acid beta-turn in cyclo-(Gly-Pro-dPhe-dAla)2 and shown by NMR structural analysis to retain the double beta turn conformation in the resulting cyclic octapeptide, cyclo-(Gly-Pro-dPhe-dAla-BZD). This supports the proposal that the benzodiazepine scaffold is a useful beta-turn mimetic that preserved both the geometry of the turn and the positioning of the sidechains.
