In this paper, a straightforward and generic protocol is presented to label the C-terminus of a peptide with any desired moiety that is functionalized with a primary amine. Amine-functional molecules included are polymers (useful for hybrid polymers), long alkyl chains (used in peptide amphiphiles and stabilization of peptides), propargyl amine and azido propyl-amine (desirable for 'click' chemistry), dansyl amine (fluorescent labeling of peptides) and crown ethers (peptide switches/hybrids). In the first part of the procedure, the primary amine is attached to an aldehyde-functional resin via reductive amination. To the secondary amine that is produced, an amino acid sequence is coupled via a standard solid-phase peptide synthesis protocol. Since one procedure can be applied for any given amine-functional moiety, a robust method for C-terminal peptide labeling is obtained.  相似文献

We have designed, synthesized and evaluated the CB(1) binding affinity of a number of new conformationally restricted lipopeptides (1-17). All of them present some of the AEA key structural elements incorporated in a hairpinlike peptide framework. Among them, compounds 1-3 and 8 showed CB(1) affinities in competitive binding assays with K(i) values in the micromolar range (K(i) of AEA = 0.8 microM in the same assay). The remaining pseudopeptides showed little binding to the CB(1) receptor (with K(i) values >or= 50 microM). Conformational analysis on two representative compounds, performed by a combination of NMR studies, restrained molecular dynamics and QM calculations, allowed us to shed light on the structure-activity relationships (SAR), pointing to a correlation between the predominance of the hairpin-like structural motif and the CB(1) binding affinity. In a more general context, the present study may also prove useful in gaining additional insight into the biological relevance of the various AEA conformations.  相似文献

Objective: The administration of the growth hormone (GH) secretagogue GH‐releasing peptide (GHRP)‐2, like ghrelin, increases food intake (FI) in lean healthy men. The aim of this study was to investigate whether this effect occurs in obese subjects and whether it is dose‐dependent. Research Methods and Procedures: Nineteen subjects (10 lean and nine obese), all healthy and weight stable, received a double‐blind randomized subcutaneous infusion of GHRP‐2 at high dose (HD; 1 μg/kg per hour), low dose (0.1 μg/kg per hour), or placebo for 270 minutes over three study visits. Blood for hormone assays was collected through an intravenous forearm catheter. Hunger and fullness were rated on visual analog scales before and after a fixed breakfast (320 kcal at 120 minutes) and a buffet lunch at 240 minutes. Before lunch, subjects received taped instructions to eat as much as they wanted. Results: GHRP‐2 infusion significantly increased ad libitum FI in a dose‐dependent manner by 10.2 ± 3.9% at low dose (p = 0.011) and by 33.5 ± 5.8% at HD (p = 0.000) compared with placebo. Obesity status did not influence the effect of GHRP‐2 on FI. All subjects had greater ratings of appetite before but similar levels of fullness after the meal with the HD GHRP‐2. Serum GH levels increased dose dependently in all subjects. Discussion: The dual stimulatory effect of GHRP‐2 on FI and human GH is dose dependent. Obese individuals retain their ability to respond to GHRP‐2 both in terms of FI and human GH.  相似文献

Peptide/boronic acid conjugates are attractive scaffolds for chemical probe discovery and drug design. There are only a few reactions that allow for rapid incorporation of boron into peptides. Herein, we report a new approach towards the synthesis of peptide β‐aminoboronic acids on solid support using 2‐chlorotrityl resin and solid‐phase peptide synthesis techniques with only one purification required. Evaluation of model compounds demonstrate the stability of peptide boronic acids toward degradation at physiological pH. This straightforward conjugation process should allow access to a wide range of peptide boronic acid scaffolds for both synthetic and medicinal use.  相似文献

Five bombesin analogs with different functional groups at the C-terminus were synthesized using a solid-phase strategy. The protocols were optimized using 4-(hydroxymethyl)benzoic acid (HMBA) resin to synthesize a common precursor followed by nucleophilic cleavage of the base sensitive peptide ester linkage. The C-terminal modifications included ethylamide, butylamide, methyl ester, propyl ester and hydrazide. Cleavage from the resin was possible with the fully protected or deprotected precursor peptide; however, higher purity of the final products was achieved when cleavage protocols were conducted after side-chain deprotection. The synthesized peptides were analyzed and characterized using reverse phase HPLC and ESI-MS. The peptides were obtained in 13-32% overall recovery, calculated from the coupling efficiency of the first amino acid residue, and in 91-97% purity.  相似文献

The anchoring of an alpha-amino-acid derivative by its amine function on to a solid support allows some chemical reactions starting from the carboxylic acid function. This paper describes the preparation of alpha-amino aldehydes linked to the support by their amine function. This was performed by reduction with LiAlH4 of the corresponding Weinreb amide linked to the resin. The aldehydes obtained were then involved in Wittig or reductive amination reactions. In addition, the linked Weinreb amide was reacted with methylmagnesium bromide to yield the corresponding ketone. After cleavage from the support, the compounds were obtained in good to excellent yields and characterized.  相似文献

Hirudin variant 1 (HV1), a small protein consisting of 65 amino acids and three disulfide bonds, was synthesized by using Fmoc-based convergent methods on 2-chlorotrityl resin (CLTR). The linear sequence was assembled by the sequential condensation of 7 protected fragments, on the resin-bound 55-65 fragment. The conditions of fragment assembly were carefully studied to determine the most efficient synthetic protocol. Crude reduced [Cys(16, 28)(Acm)]-HV1 thus obtained was easily purified to homogeneity by RP-HPLC. Disulfide bridges were successfully formed by a two-step procedure, involving an oxidative folding step to form Cys(6)-Cys(14) and Cys(22)-Cys(39) linkages, followed by iodine oxidation to form the Cys(16)-Cys(28) bond. The correct disulfide bond alignment was established by peptide mapping using Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease at pH 4.5.  相似文献

Solid-phase peptide synthesis has many advantages compared with solution peptide synthesis. However, this procedure requires a large amount of organic solvents. Since safe organic solvent waste disposal is an important environmental problem, a technology based on coupling reaction of suspended nanoparticle reactants in water was studied. Fmoc-amino acids are used widely, but most of them show low solubility in water. We prepared well-dispersible Fmoc-amino acid nanoparticles in water by pulverization using a planetary ball mill in the presence of poly(ethylene glycol). Leu-enkephalin amide was prepared successfully using the nanoparticulate Fmoc-amino acid on a poly(ethylene glycol)-grafted Rink amide resin in water.  相似文献

A rapid and efficient microwave-assisted solid-phase synthesis method is described for the preparation of the nonapeptide WDTVRISFK, using conventional Fmoc/Bu(t) orthogonal protection strategy. The synthesis protocol is based on the use of cycles of pulsed microwave irradiation with intermittent cooling of the reaction during the removal of the Fmoc protecting group and during the coupling. The desired nonapeptide was obtained in highest yield and purity by employing MicroKan technology. The chemical reactions were carried out in a single-mode microwave reactor, equipped with a fiber-optic probe to monitor the reaction temperature continuously.  相似文献

Overexpression of gonadotropin‐releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor in many tumors but not in normal tissues makes it possible to use GnRH analogs as targeting peptides for selective delivery of cytotoxic agents, which may help to enhance the uptake of anticancer drugs by cancer cells and reduce toxicity to normal cells. The GnRH analogs [d ‐Cys6, desGly10, Pro9‐NH2]‐GnRH, [d ‐Cys6, desGly10, Pro9‐NHEt]‐GnRH, and [d ‐Cys6, α‐aza‐Gly10‐NH2]‐GnRH were conjugated with doxorubicin (Dox), respectively, through N‐succinimidyl‐3‐maleimidopropionate as a linker to afford three new GnRH‐Dox conjugates. The metabolic stability of these conjugates in human serum was determined by RP‐HPLC. The antiproliferative activity of the conjugates was examined in GnRH receptor‐positive MCF‐7 human breast cancer cell line by MTT assay. The three GnRH‐Dox conjugates showed improved metabolic stability in human serum in comparison with AN‐152. The antiproliferative effect of conjugate II ([d ‐Cys6, desGly10, Pro9‐NHEt]‐GnRH‐Dox) on MCF‐7 cells was higher than that of conjugate I ([d ‐Cys6, desGly10, Pro9‐NH2]‐GnRH‐Dox) and conjugate III ([d ‐Cys6, α‐aza‐Gly10‐NH2]‐GnRH‐Dox), and the cytotoxicity of conjugate II against GnRH receptor‐negative 3T3 mouse embryo fibroblast cells was decreased in comparison with free Dox. GnRH receptor inhibition test suggested that the antiproliferative activity of conjugate II might be due to the cellular uptake mediated by the targeting binding of [d ‐Cys6‐des‐Gly10‐Pro9‐NHEt]‐GnRH to GnRH receptors. Our study indicates that targeting delivery of conjugate II mediated by [d ‐Cys6‐des‐Gly10‐Pro9‐NHEt]‐GnRH is a promising strategy for chemotherapy of tumors that overexpress GnRH receptors.  相似文献

A convergent synthesis for erythropoietin (EPO) 1‐28 N‐glycopeptide hydrazides was developed. In this approach, EPO 1‐28 peptides were synthesized on the solid phase and converted to C‐terminal hydrazides after cleavage from the resin. After selective deprotection of the Asp24 side chain, the desired glycosylamine was coupled by pseudoproline‐assisted Lansbury aspartylation. Although the initial yields of the EPO 1‐28 glycopeptides were satisfactory, they could be markedly improved by increasing the purity of the peptide using a reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography (RP‐HPLC) purification of the protected peptide.  相似文献

The degree of resin swelling in a particular solvent system is one of the critical parameters for solid‐phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) and for solid‐phase synthesis in general. Methods used for measuring the degree of resin swelling include microscopy‐based and volumetry‐based methods. This study describes and compares the use of both methods for a number of commercially available resins commonly used in SPPS, with a range of solvents, which have been identified in the literature as ‘greener’ than DCM, DMF and NMP. The results were analysed by statistical methods, and a significant correlation between the two distinct methods has been demonstrated for the first time. The results will likely be used, in conjunction with other literature methods, to help in choosing both the resin and solvent system for greener SPPS, as well as for continuous flow SPPS, which is of growing importance.  相似文献

The synthesis and biological activity of the marine cyclopeptide hymenamide C(1), showing an inhibitory effect on human neutrophil elastase degranulation release, were recently described. Based on this result, it was decided to undertake a systematic structure-activity relationship study of this cyclopeptide, based on the Ala-scan technique, in order to obtain useful information for the rational design of additional analogues. The synthesis and characterization of the seven Ala modified analogues are reported and their biological and pharmacological properties are described.  相似文献

Murray Valley encephalitis virus is a member of the flavivirus group, a large family of single‐stranded RNA viruses, which cause serious disease in all regions of the world. Unfortunately, no suitable antivirals are available, and there are commercial vaccines for only three flaviviruses. The solid‐phase synthesis of a library of 400 C‐terminal arginine peptide aldehydes and their screening against Murray Valley encephalitis virus protease are demonstrated. The library was utilised to elucidate several tripeptide sequences that can be used as inhibitors in further SAR studies.

Attracted by the possibility to optimize time and yield of the synthesis of difficult peptide sequences by MW irradiation, we compared Fmoc/tBu MW‐assisted SPPS of 1–34 N‐terminal fragment of parathyroid hormone‐related peptide (PTHrP) with its conventional SPPS carried out at RT. MWs were applied in both coupling and deprotection steps of SPPS protocol. During the stepwise elongation of the resin‐bound peptide, monitoring was conducted by performing MW‐assisted mini‐cleavages and analyzing them by UPLC‐ESI‐MS. Identification of some deletion sequences was helpful to recognize critical couplings and as such helped to guide the introduction of MW irradiations to these stages.

Peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) are DNA mimics with a neutral peptide backbone instead of the negatively charged sugar phosphates. PNAs exhibit several attractive features such as high chemical and thermal stability, resistance to enzymatic degradation, and stable binding to their RNA or DNA targets in a sequence‐specific manner. Therefore, they are widely used in molecular diagnosis of antisense‐targeted therapeutic drugs or probes and in pharmaceutical applications. However, the main hindrance to the effective use of PNAs is their poor uptake by cells as well as the difficult and laborious chemical synthesis. In order to achieve an efficient delivery of PNAs into cells, there are already many published reports of peptides being used for transport across the cell membrane. In this protocol, we describe the automated as well as cost‐effective semi‐automated synthesis of PNAs and PNA‐peptide constructs on an automated peptide synthesizer. The facile synthesis of PNAs will be helpful in generating PNA libraries usable, e.g. for high‐throughput screening in biomolecular studies. Efficient synthetic schemes, the automated procedure, the reduced consumption of costly reagents, and the high purity of the products are attractive features of the reported procedure.

The synthesis of ‘head‐to‐tail’ cyclized peptides requires orthogonal protecting groups. Herein, we report on the introduction of bis(2‐pyridylmethyl)amine (Bpa) as a new protecting group for carboxylic functions in SPPS. The synthesis of the Bpa‐protected aspartic acid was straightforward, and its utility was investigated under standard peptide synthesis conditions. The new protecting group was cleaved in a very mild way using Cu(OAc)2 and 2‐(trimethylsilyl)ethanol as nucleophile in a microwave oven without affecting other groups. Hence, the new group is ideally suited for the synthesis of ‘head‐to‐tail’ cyclic peptides, as demonstrated for a cyclic pentapeptide and cyclic hexapeptides.
