X marks the spot : The synthetic tricyclic amino acid X (see structure; C gray, H cyan, N blue, O red, double bond yellow) can be incorporated, without loss of binding ability, as a Pro‐Pro substitute into two peptides that bind to the proline‐rich motif‐recognizing domains Fyn‐SH3. The dipeptide analogue X , which is locked in a polyproline type II helix conformation, is created by stereoselective introduction of a vinylidene bridge into a diproline unit.
