Abstract
During the screening of a soluble library of cyclo(AXXXXXAE)K-CONH2, a cyclic peptide cyclo(AHPQFPAE)K-CONH2 was identified as a tight-bindi ng ligand (IC50 = 128 nM) and found to bind 1000-fold more tightly tha n its linear peptide to streptavidin. The results of this study sugges t that library screening of conformationally constrained cyclic peptid es can be an effective means for the discovery of high affinity ligand s.
