Discovering covalent cyclic peptide inhibitors of peptidyl arginine deiminase 4 (PADI4) using mRNA-display with a genetically encoded electrophilic warhead

Abstract Covalent drugs can achieve high potency with long dosing intervals. However, concerns remain about side-effects associated with off-target reactivity. Combining macrocyclic peptides with covalent warheads provides a solution to minimise off-target reactivity: the peptide enables highly spec...
