Abstract
We synthesized stapled helical leucine-based peptides (DPI-01-07) containing 2-aminoisobutyric acid and a covalent cross-linked unit as inhibitors of vitamin D receptor (VDR)-coactivator interactions. The effects of these peptides on the human VDR were examined in an inhibition assay based on the receptor cofactor assay system, and one of them, DPI-07, exhibited potent inhibitory activity (IC50: 3.2 μM).
