Abstract
The discovery of short peptide sequences that function as asymmetric catalysts for a variety of reactions is documented. The evolution of the project from an exercise in rational design to an endeavor that combines combinatorial screening with various mechanism-based experiments is presented. The specific development of catalysts for enantioselective acylation, phosphorylation, conjugate addition, and Morita-Baylis-Hillman reactions is described.Year: 2004 PMID: 15311959 DOI: 10.1021/ar030061c
