- SYNTHETIC INNATE IMMUNE RECEPTOR LIGANDS AND USES THEREOF
-
An adjuvant formulation includes a monophosphoryl Lipid A (MPLA) analogue, a Pam3CSK4 analogue, or a muramyldipeptide (MDP) analogue, or combinations thereof. The adjuvant may be formulated in soluble form or in a nanoparticle, such as polylactic glycolic acid nanoparticles. A vaccine formulation comprises the adjuvant formulation and an immunogen. Methods of vaccinating an animal include delivering the vaccine formulation to the animal.

- Formyloxyacetoxyphenylmethane as an N-Formylating Reagent for Amines, Amino Acids, and Peptides
-
Formyloxyacetoxyphenylmethane is a stable, water-tolerant, N-formylating reagent for primary and secondary amines that can be used under solvent-free conditions at room temperature to prepare a range of N-formamides, N-formylanilines, N-formyl-α-amino acids, N-formylpeptides, and an isocyanide.

- Amino acid pyridoxyl esters in peptide synthesis
-
Pyridoxyl residue was suggested to be used as a multifunctional protective and modifying group in peptide synthesis. The modification was carried out by introducing the pyridoxyl residue in free or partially protected peptides or by the addition of amino

- Peptide-metal ion pharmaceutical preparation and method
-
Peptides containing a biological-function domain and a medically useful metal ion-binding domain are labeled with medically useful metal ions for use in diagnosis and treatment of a variety of pathologic conditions. The peptides have the amino acid sequence (R1)-[Y1 ]n -(R2), (R1)-[Y1 -(R2)-Y1 ]n -(R3) and (R1)-[Y1 -(R2)-Y2 ]n -(R3) wherein the medically useful metal ion-binding domain is [Y1 ]n, [Y1 -(R2)-Y1 ]n or [Y1 -(R2)-Y2 ]n in which n is a number between 1 and about 6 and Y1 and Y2 are amino acids with a sulfur, nitrogen or oxygen which is available for binding to metal ions, or can be made available for binding to metal ions; the biological-function domain is an amino acid sequence containing from 1 to about 20 amino acids located in any one or more of R1, R2 or R3 ; and those portions of R1, R2 and R3 which are not part of the biological-function domain are amino acid sequences containing from 0 to about 20 amino acids. The resulting product may be stored frozen or lyophilized, with labeling accomplished by the addition of the medically useful metal ions. The medically useful metal ion may be radioactive or paramagnetic, with diagnosis performed by gamma scintigraphy, specific photon emission computerized tomography, positron emission tomography or magnetic resonance imaging.

- N-BENZHYDRYL-GLYCOLAMIDE ESTERS (OBg ESTERS) AS CARBOXYL PROTECTING GROUPS IN PEPTIDE SYNTHESIS
-
N-benzhydryl-glycolamide esters (OBg esters) of various N-protected amino acids have been synthesized.In order to demonstrate their usefulness in peptide chemistry, the syntheses of For-Met-Leu-Phe-OH (chemiotactic peptide) and Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2 (MIF) have been carried out.OBg esters are compatible with commonly used protecting groups and are cleanly and selectively removed in mild alkaline conditions without any side reaction, except for β-benzyl aspartyl containing sequences.
