A peptidomimetic is a small protein-like chain designed to mimic a peptide. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] They typically arise either from modification of an existing peptide, or by designing similar systems that mimic peptides, such as peptoids and β-peptides .

Prohibitin-targeting peptide 1 (also known as prohibitin-TP01 and TP01; trade name Adipotide) is a peptidomimetic with sequence CKGGRAKDC-GG-D (KLAKLAK) 2.It is an experimental proapoptotic drug [1] that has been shown to cause rapid weight loss in mice [2] and rhesus monkeys. [3]
There are a number of different distinct classes of protein mimetics. Antibody mimetic - Molecules that mimic antigen binding activity of antibodies; Peptidomimetic - Small protein-like chains designed to mimic larger peptide.
A stapled peptide is a modified peptide (class A peptidomimetic), typically in an alpha-helical conformation, [2] that is constrained by a synthetic brace ("staple"). [3] The staple is formed by a covalent linkage between two amino acid side-chains, forming a peptide macrocycle. Staples, generally speaking, refer to a covalent linkage of two ...
Peptoids (root from the Greek πεπτός, peptós "digested"; derived from πέσσειν, péssein "to digest" and the Greek-derived suffix -oid meaning "like, like that of, thing like a _____," ), or poly-N-substituted glycines, are a class of biochemicals known as biomimetics that replicate the behavior of biological molecules. [1]
The 3C-like protease (3CL pro) or main protease (M pro), formally known as C30 endopeptidase or 3-chymotrypsin-like protease, [2] is the main protease found in coronaviruses.It cleaves the coronavirus polyprotein at eleven conserved sites.
Peptide deformylase removes the formyl group from the N terminus of nascent polypeptides as they are synthesized by the ribosome.The function of peptide deformylase can be described by the following equation, where formyl-L-methionyl peptide and water react under the formation of formate and methionyl peptide:
