Chem Commun (Camb). 2009 Jul 7:(25):3693-5. doi: 10.1039/b902455g. Epub 2009 May 29.

Abstract

We report the design, synthesis, membrane activity, biophysical characterization, and in vitro antibacterial activities of cationic cyclic D,L-alpha-glycopeptides bearing d-glucosamine (GlcNH(2)), D-galactose (Gal), or D-mannose (Man) glycosyl side chains.
