Abstract

A series of bipolar biphenyl compounds was synthesized as proteomimetic analogs of the LXXLL penta-peptide motif responsible for the binding of coactivator proteins to the nuclear hormone receptor coactivator binding domain. These compounds were subjected to multiple in vitro assays to evaluate their effectiveness as competitive binding inhibitors. The results from this initial study indicate that these proteomimetics possess the ability to inhibit this ...
