DOI: 10.1007/978-1-4939-9504-2_5
Abstract: Peptide cyclization can improve stability, conformational constraint, and compactness. However, apart from beta-turn structures, which are well incorporated into cyclic peptides (CPs), many primary peptide structures and functions are markedly altered by cyclization. Accordingly, to… read more here.
