We have been interested in the utilization of naturally occurring functionalized γ-amino acids such as statines 6 and α,β-unsaturated γ-amino acids 7 in the design of foldamers. from unnatural oligomers has been scarcely investigated. 5 However, design of highly organized protein supersecondary structures such as helix-turn-helix, β-meanders, Greek key motifs etc. 3 In addition to the helices, these unnatural oligomers have also been used to mimic β-sheets 4 and turns. 1,2 The homo and heterooligomers of β- and γ-amino acids have displayed a variety of helical patterns and based on the intramolecular H-bonding pseudocycles they are denoted as C n-helices, where n is 14, 13, 12 etc. Enormous efforts have been made in this regard to design novel folded architectures to mimic protein secondary structures using a variety of organic templates and synthetic backbone homologated β- and γ-amino acids. Engineering the folding of polypeptides into defined structures has a great significance from the perspective of medicinal chemistry, biology and materials science.

"His own father called him Kalamos (Calamus) : his father Maiandros (Maeander), lurking in the secret places with his water in the lap of earth-who rolls deep through the earth and drags his crooked stream towards the light, crawling unseen and travelling slantwise underground, until he leaps up quickly and lifts his neck above the ground."

" built the battlements that keep their founder's name where, as she strolled beside Maeander's winding banks, her father's stream, that turns so often back upon its course, he joined in love a Nympha of beauty rare, Cyanee." "Ankaios (Ancaeus) took to wife Samia, the daughter of the river Maiandros (Maeander)." "And they say that lawsuits are brought against the god Maiandros (Maeander) for altering the boundaries of the countries on his banks, that is, when the projecting elbows of land are swept away by him and that when he is convicted the fines are paid from the tolls collected at the ferries."

The River Maiandros had its headwaters the highlands of southern Phrygia and, flowing west through Karia, entered the Aegean Sea opposite the town of Miletos (Miletus).

MAIANDROS (Maeander) was a river-god of Karia (Caria) in Anatolia (modern Turkey).
