Abstract

Peptidomimetics are synthetic compounds designed to mimic the biological properties of peptides, including their ability to bind to specific receptors and enzymes. These compounds are used as tools for studying the structure and function of peptides, as well as for developing therapeutic agents with improved pharmacological properties. Peptidomimetics are a diverse class of molecules that can be designed to exhibit a range of biological activities, including enzyme inhibition, receptor agonism or antagonism, and protein-protein interaction modulation. They have been used in the development of drugs for a variety of diseases, including cancer, infectious diseases, and metabolic disorders. This study provides an overview on the field of peptidomimetics, including their design principles, synthesis strategies, and biological applications.

Keywords: Peptidomimetics, anticancer, Solid-phase peptide synthesis, Solution-phase peptide synthesis.
