Abstrakt: A collection of complementary peptide caricatures that closely mimic low-energy (presumably highly populated) conformations of amino acids of interest would constitute a valuable tool set to study the interactions of small peptide ligands with their biological targets. Our general strategy for the design, synthesis and application of peptidomimetics is presented. An illustration of how structural information from mimetics combined with cutting edge biophysical data can be used to derive a model for the bound conformation of an 11-mer peptide antagonist with the IL-1 receptor is given.
