K. Krajewski et al., Pro-pro amide bond configuration and the immunosuppressive activity of cyclolinopeptide A, POL J CHEM, 75(10), 2001, pp. 1441-1448
The comparison of conformational preferences of cyclolinopeptide A (CLA) an
alogues containing the twisted cis-amide bond mimetics, based on CD, molecu
lar modeling, and their immunosuppressive activity was performed. The resul
ts suggest that there exists a twisted cis-amide bond between two proline r
esidues in the biologically active conformation of CLA.
