| Title |
Stapling mimics noncovalent interactions of γ-carboxyglutamates in conantokins, peptidic antagonists of N-methyl-D-aspartic acid receptors |

| Description |
Background: Can dicarba bridges (stapling) replace noncovalent interactions that stabilize helical conformation of neuroactivepeptides? Results: A rational design, synthesis, structural, and functional characterization of stapled conG analogs that target NMDAreceptors is reported. Conclusion: Stapled conG analogs are potent antagonists of NMDA receptors and anticonvulsant compounds. Significance: Stapling can be successfully applied to convert neuroactive peptides into drug leads. |
