    Abstract Among the many methods available for accessing conformationally diverse cyclic peptides, the derivatization of macrocyclic iminopeptides has remained notably underexplored. Now, a relevant complexity-generating method expands the repertoire of synthetic strategies exploiting the reactivity of an imino bond embedded in the cyclic peptide skeleton. Here we highlight a recent report describing the on-resin construction of a new family of macrocyclic peptide/natural product-inspired hybrids, namely "PepNats", by derivatization of cyclic iminopeptides through 1,3-cycloaddition reactions. A proof-of-concept with PepNats bearing peptide sequences that mimic protein hot loops demonstrated the potential of this strategy to create novel macrocyclic peptide ligands capable of modulating protein-protein interactions.

    Abstract In the past decade, multicomponent reactions have experienced a renaissance as powerful peptide macrocyclization tools enabling the rapid creation of skeletal complexity and diversity with low synthetic cost. This review provides both a historical and modern overview of the development of the peptide multicomponent macrocyclization as a strategy capable to compete with the classic peptide cyclization methods in terms of chemical efficiency and synthetic scope. We prove that the utilization of multicomponent reactions for cyclizing peptides by either their termini or side chains provides a key advantage over those more established methods; that is, the possibility to explore the cyclic peptide chemotype space not only at the amino acid sequence but also at the ring-forming moiety. Owing to its multicomponent nature, this type of peptide cyclization process is well-suited to generate diversity at both the

    Abstract The chemical modification of biopolymers like peptides and proteins is a key technology to access vaccines and pharmaceuticals. Similarly, the tunable derivatization of individual amino acids is important as they are key building blocks of biomolecules, bioactive natural products, synthetic polymers, and innovative materials. The high diversity of functional groups present in amino acid-based molecules represents a significant challenge for their selective derivatization Recently, visible light-mediated transformations have emerged as a powerful strategy for achieving chemoselective biomolecule modification. This technique offers numerous advantages over other methods, including a higher selectivity, mild reaction conditions and high functional-group tolerance. This review provides an overview of the most recent methods covering the photoinduced modification for single amino acids and site-selective functionalization in peptides and proteins under mild and even biocompatible conditions. Future challenges and perspectives are discussed beyond the diverse types of photocatalytic transformations that are currently available.

    Abstract In the past decade, multicomponent reactions have experienced a renaissance as powerful peptide macrocyclization tools enabling the rapid creation of skeletal complexity and diversity with low synthetic cost. This review provides both a historical and modern overview of the development of the peptide multicomponent macrocyclization as a strategy capable to compete with the classic peptide cyclization methods in terms of chemical efficiency and synthetic scope. We prove that the utilization of multicomponent reactions for cyclizing peptides by either their termini or side chains provides a key advantage over those more established methods; that is, the possibility to explore the cyclic peptide chemotype space not only at the amino acid sequence but also at the ring-forming moiety. Owing to its multicomponent nature, this type of peptide cyclization process is well-suited to generate diversity at both the endo- and exo-cyclic fragments formed during the ring-closing step, which stands as a distinctive and useful characteristic for the creation and screening of cyclic peptide libraries. Examples of the novel multicomponent peptide stapling approach and heterocycle ring-forming macrocyclizations are included, along with multicomponent methods incorporating macrocyclization handles and the one-pot syntheses of macromulticyclic peptide cages. Interesting applications of this strategy in the field of drug discovery and chemical biology are provided.

    Abstract Multicomponent reactions (MCRs) are recently expanding the plethora of solid-phase protocols for the synthesis and derivatization of peptides. Herein, we describe a solid-phase-compatible strategy based on MCRs as a powerful strategy for peptide cyclization and ligation . We illustrate, using Gramicidin S as a model peptide, how the execution of on-resin Ugi reactions enables the simultaneous backbone N-functionalization and cyclization, which are important types of derivatizations in peptide-based drug development or for incorporation of conjugation handles, or labels.

    Abstract Macrocyclization of peptides is typically used to fix specific bioactive conformations and improve their pharmacological properties. Recently, macrobicyclic peptides have received special attention owing to their capacity to mimic protein structures or be key components of peptide-drug conjugates. Here, we describe the development of novel synthetic strategies for two distinctive types of peptide macrobicycles. A multicomponent macrocyclo-dimerization approach is introduced for the production of interconnected β-turns, allowing two macrocyclic rings to be formed and dimerized in one pot. Also, an on-resin double stapling strategy is described for the assembly of lactam-bridged macrobicycles with stable tertiary folds.

    Abstract In this study, the characteristic growth of Cladobotryum virescens on nine culture media was analyzed. The growing behavior of this fungus was dependent on the culture medium. In vitro analysis showed that oat agar was better than other media tested with the highest conidia production. The antifungal activity against Fusarium chlamydosporum and Alternaria brassicicola was evaluated by the Dual Culture method. C. virescens displayed high activity against both pathogens acting through antibiosis and mycoparasitism. This effect was increased by a higher competitiveness of the strain for the substrate. Furthermore, the crude ethyl acetate extract of the culture broth was tested in vitro against Botrytis cinerea and Septoria tritici, as well as the hemibiotrophic oomycete Phytophthora infestans using a microtiter plate assay at different concentrations. The extract showed excellent inhibition even below 5 ppm. According to these results, we concluded that C. virescens can be considered as a potential biological control agent in agriculture. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate C. virescens as a biocontrol agent for different diseases caused by five relevant pathogens that affect cereals and vegetables.
