Detailed conformational analyses of our previously reported cyclopropane-based peptidomimetics and conformational analysis-driven ligand optimization are described. Computational calculations and X-ray crystallography showed that the characteristic features of cyclopropane function effectively to constrain the molecular conformation in a three-dimensionally diverse manner. Subsequent principal component analysis revealed that the diversity covers the broad chemical space filled by peptide secondary structures in terms of both main-chain and side-chain conformations. Based on these analyses, a lead stereoisomer targeting melanocortin receptors was identified, and its potency and subtype selectivity were improved by further derivatization. The presented strategy is effective not only for designing non-peptidic ligands from a peptide ligand but also for the rational optimization of these ligands based on the plausible target-binding conformation without requiring the three-dimensional structural information of the target and its peptide ligands.
