Patent ID: 8853149

Claim:
A cyclic compound comprising a recognition sequence and a non-recognition sequence, wherein said recognition sequence is joined to said non-recognition sequence by a first linker and a second linker, wherein said non-recognition sequence is five amino acids selected from KLKLK (SEQ ID NO:27), KLQLK (SEQ ID NO:28), QLKLK (SEQ ID NO:29), KLKLQ (SEQ ID NO:281), KQKLK (SEQ ID NO:30), KLKQK (SEQ ID NO:282), KXKXK (SEQ ID NO:31), or ELKLK (SEQ ID NO:32), where X=sarcosine and said recognition sequence is five amino acids selected from MVVSW (SEQ ID NO:33), MVVSA (SEQ ID NO:34), MVVAW (SEQ ID NO:35), MVASW (SEQ ID NO:36), MAVSW (SEQ ID NO:37), AVVSW (SEQ ID NO:38), N*VVSW (SEQ ID NO:39), N*VVYW (SEQ ID NO:40), N*VVAW (SEQ ID NO:41), AVVAW (SEQ ID NO:42), N*AVAW (SEQ ID NO:43), N*VAAW (SEQ ID NO:44), N*VLAW (SEQ ID NO:45), N*VIAW (SEQ ID NO:46), N*VFAW (SEQ ID NO:47), or WSVVW (SEQ ID NO:48), where N*=norleucine, and where said first linker and said second linker are independently selected from the structures: (D-Pro-L-Pro); (methylsulfonamido aminoethylglycine); or ((pyrrolidin-2-ylmethoxy)acetate, wherein no more than one of said first linker and said second linker is D-Pro-L-Pro.
