Peptoids are a unique class of peptidomimetics based on oligo-N-substituted glycine scaffolding. As a bioinspired material, the properties of peptoids lie in-between natural biopolymers and non-natural synthetic polymers. Like biopolymers, they are information-rich polymers, offering precise control of main chain length, side chain functionality, and monomer sequence. Synthetic elaborations as well as intra-/inter-molecular interactions in peptoid provided various secondary and tertiary structures, which have been further developed for various functional materials. In this presentation I will present general introduction of peptoid structures and functions. Afterwards our efforts to control peptoid structures to generate novel functional materials including biomimetic light-harvesting complexes and biologically active peptoid helices will be presented. |
