TLDR
A potent non-opioid analgesic, epibatidine, has been isolated from skins of the Ecuadoran poison frog, Epipedobates tricolor, and its structure determined by MS, IR, and 1 H NMR analyses as exo-2-(6-chloro-3-pyridyl)-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane represents a unique new class of alkaloids.Abstract:

23 – stereochemical aspects of drug action i: conformational restriction, steric hindrance and hydrophobic collapse
TL;DR: The use of conformational restriction to probe the bioactive conformation of a molecule has been much more productive with peptides than with small molecules, and a large variety of highly sophisticated conformational constraints have been successfully applied to the design of peptidase inhibitors.
