摘要

口服生物可用的高分子量大环肽可抑制难以用药的蛋白质与蛋白质之间的相互作用，具有很高的治疗价值，最近有人提出了大环肽的设计规则。在此，我们强调了这些规则的危险性，因为它们提供了临床候选药物所需亲油性的假象。

Beware of extreme calculated lipophilicity when designing cyclic peptides

Orally bioavailable, high molecular weight macrocyclic peptides that inhibit difficult-to-drug protein–protein interactions are of high therapeutic value, and rules for their design were proposed recently. Here, we emphasize the danger of rules that provide a false impression of the lipophilicity required of a clinical candidate.

期刊介绍： Nature Chemical Biology stands as an esteemed international monthly journal, offering a prominent platform for the chemical biology community to showcase top-tier original research and commentary. Operating at the crossroads of chemistry, biology, and related disciplines, chemical biology utilizes scientific ideas and approaches to comprehend and manipulate biological systems with molecular precision. The journal embraces contributions from the growing community of chemical biologists, encompassing insights from chemists applying principles and tools to biological inquiries and biologists striving to comprehend and control molecular-level biological processes. We prioritize studies unveiling significant conceptual or practical advancements in areas where chemistry and biology intersect, emphasizing basic research, especially those reporting novel chemical or biological tools and offering profound molecular-level insights into underlying biological mechanisms. Nature Chemical Biology also welcomes manuscripts describing applied molecular studies at the chemistry-biology interface due to the broad utility of chemical biology approaches in manipulating or engineering biological systems. Irrespective of scientific focus, we actively seek submissions that creatively blend chemistry and biology, particularly those providing substantial conceptual or methodological breakthroughs with the potential to open innovative research avenues. The journal maintains a robust and impartial review process, emphasizing thorough chemical and biological characterization.
