MeSH definition : Polymers of N-SUBSTITUTED GLYCINES containing chiral centers at the a-position of
their side chains. These oligomers lack HYDROGEN BONDING donors, preventing formation
of the usual intrachain hydrogen bonds but can form helices driven by the steric influence
of chiral side chains.;
