Synthetic organic approaches for the covalent inhibition of protein-protein interactions
This thesis described the design and synthesis of non-peptidic scaffolds that mimic secondary protein structure, with the aim of developing potent and selective proof-of-principle protein-protein interaction (PPI) inhibitors. The scaffolds consisted of conformationally preorganised ⍺-helical or βsheet mimetics, with a boron-centred electrophilic warhead which can form reversible covalent interactions with N- or O-centred Lewis basic/nucleophilic amino acid residues at a protein binding interface

Abstract

This thesis described the design and synthesis of non-peptidic scaffolds that mimic secondary protein structure, with the aim of developing potent and selective proof-of-principle protein-protein interaction (PPI) inhibitors. The scaffolds consisted of conformationally preorganised ⍺-helical or βsheet mimetics, with a boron-centred electrophilic warhead which can form reversible covalent interactions with N- or O-centred Lewis basic/nucleophilic amino acid residues at a protein binding interface
