## Abstract Novel Nโterminusโtoโsideโchain cyclic analogs of the opioid peptide dynorphin (Dyn) Aโ(1โ11)NH~2~ were prepared that retain the basicity of the Nโterminal amine and restrict the backbone conformation around the important Tyr^1^ residue. Cyclic peptides were synthesized in which the Nโte

Following up on the observation that the dynorphin analog [Pro(3)]Dyn A(1-11)-NH(2) 2 possesses high affinity and selectivity for the kappa opioid receptor, a number of related peptides were prepared and characterized by radioligand binding and [(35)S]GTPgammaS assays. While incorporation of 2-azeti
A series of 11 asparagines substituted on N4 was prepared and evaluated for their ability to inhibit the growth of L5178Y leukemia cell cultures. These cells require an exogenous source of L-asparagine and should be sensitive to an asparagine antimetabolite. The compounds were prepared by reaction o
Two phosphono desmuramyldipeptide analogs, 6 and 11, were synthesized and evaluated for immunomodulatory activity. Phthalimido-and adamantyl-substituted side chains as a replacement for the N-acetylmuraminic acid were coupled with appropriate dipeptides using DPPA as the coupling reagent. Introducti
