Amide-to-ester substitution as a stable alternative to N-methylation for increasing membrane permeability in cyclic peptides

Naturally occurring peptides with high membrane permeability often have backbone ester bonds. Here, the authors investigated the effect of an amide-to-ester substitution on membrane permeability of peptides and found the substitution is useful for improving membrane permeability of cyclic peptides.
