Soc. 2002, 124, 368) and Seebach et al. (Rueping, M.; Mahajan, Y.; Sauer, M.; Seebach D. ChemBioChem 2002, 2-3, 257) on the cellular uptake of β-peptides. The cellular translocation of β-peptides was also reported by Prof. D. Seebach in a lecture at the 17th American Peptide Symposium (San Diego, 9-14 June 2001) and at the Department Forschung Kantonsspital Basel and Zentrum für Pharmazeutische Wissenschaften (Basel, 29 November 2001).

31. Interestingly, these features were not observed previously for an heptamer of L-lysine, see ref 4. The change in the backbone seems to have in this case a positive effect on the translocation activity of the oligomer.
