Front Cover : In article number 2100250, Naoya Kanbayashi, Kiyotaka Onitsuka, and co‐workers present a reversible conformational switch of a non‐natural polypeptide with an aromatic ring in its peptide backbone, referred to as an “arylopeptide”, between two distinct helical structures. On this cover, the structural change of arylopeptide in the solvent is shown. In addition, a continuation of the spiral staircase upward represents the development of arylopeptide as new peptides.
