Peptoid Inhibitors of RNA-Protein Interactions

Peptoid hbraries have also yielded compounds active in the disruption of RNA-protein interactions. Compounds not derived from library syntheses are discussed in Section 1.4.1. A peptoid 9-mer with a number of cationic groups was discovered (Fig. 1.4) after several rounds of mixture deconvolution, that was able to block the interaction of HIV-1 Tat protein with TAR RNA at nanomolar concentra-
