Antimicrobial and antitumor activity of peptidomimetics synthesized from amino acids

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/j.bioorg.2020.104506

Thirteen cationic peptidomimetics derived from amino acids bearing an alkyl or ethynylphenyl moiety that mimic the structure of cationic antibacterial peptides were designed and synthesized using a simple coupling reaction of an amino acid with a substitu
