A hydrogen-bonding interface between helical aromatic oligoamide foldamers has been designed to promote the folding of a helix-turn-helix motif with a head-to-tail arrangement of two helices of opposite handedness. This design complements an earlier helix-turn-helix motif with a head-to-head arrangement of two helices of identical handedness interface. The two motifs were shown to have comparable stability and were combined in a unimolecular tetra-helix fold constituting the largest abiotic tertiary structure to date.< Réduire
