摘要
Based on theoretical arguments, 2,6,3',5'-substituted biphenyl analogues are proposed as protein alpha-helix mimetics superimposing the side chains of the residues i, i + 1, i + 3 and i + 4. Knowing that many protein-protein interactions of therapeutical relevance involve alpha-helix contacts, the communication outlines how this novel category of scaffolds might potentially open access to such targets.
