The Application of Nα-Formyl Amino Acid Esters in the Enzyme-Catalyzed Peptide Synthesis

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/BF00808313

The synthesis of N^α-formyl protected amino acid esters and their use in kinetically controlled α-chymotrypsin-, trypsin- and carboxypeptidase Y-catalyzed peptide synthesis is described.Using the synthesis of H-Tyr-Ala-OH as example it is demons
