Synthetic methodology has been developed for the generation of large, diverse libraries of "unnatural"carbamate oligomers using the "one bead, one peptide" method. Using a pool of 27 structurally and functionallydiverse monomers, one acyclic and two cyclic libraries were synthesized and screened for binding to theintegrin GPIIb/IIIa. Several classes of oligocarbamate ligands for GPIIb/IIIa were discovered, and two cyclicligands have activities that are within a factor of 3 of kistrin, a snake venom protein that effectively inhibitsplatelet aggregation. Preliminary pharmacokinetic characterization was performed on a linear oligocarbamateligand, which was cleared from plasma with a half-life of 3.6 min.
