Utilizing Constrained Bicyclic Peptides for In Vitro Diagnostics. Acs Nano, 2026 Cited by PubMed Abstract: Constrained bicyclic peptides () with high affinity for biological targets have emerged as potentially powerful therapeutic agents, particularly for the targeting of cancer receptors. However, their antibody-mimetic properties have yet to be explored for use in diagnostic immunoassays. These synthetically derived compounds serve as biorecognition scaffolds that allow for facile site-selective modification and large-scale production. A phage display screen against various constructs of the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid (N) protein identified several molecules with binding affinities ranging from the micromolar to the low nanomolar range. These molecules were validated in the development of enzyme- and nanozyme-linked immunosorbent assays, as well as enzymatic and colorimetric nanoparticle-based lateral flow immunoassays (LFIA) for the detection of ultralow concentrations of the SARS-CoV-2 N protein. We envision that these moieties enable robust, cost-effective, and large-scale development of ultrasensitive biosensors for a diverse range of biomarkers by leveraging their high binding affinity, minimalistic scaffold, and synthetic accessibility.
