Abstract:
Invited for the cover of this issue is the group of Andrew D. Hamilton and Sam Thompson at the University of Oxford (UK). The image depicts a new class of conformationally constrained β-strand mimetics mediating the interaction between two subunits of a protein that controls transcription.

Protein Folding

Proteins are chains of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. Upon synthesis, a protein folds into a three-dimensional conformation, critical to its biological function. Interactions between its constituent amino acids guide protein folding, and hence the protein structure is primarily dependent on its amino acid sequence.
