Synthesis of Fluorescent Amino Acids and Peptides with 2-Aminopyridine at the Carboxyl or Amino Terminus

Article abstract of DOI:10.1246/bcsj.61.4315

N-(2-Pyridyl) derivatives of glycine (1), DL-alanine (2), DL-valine (3), and DL-norleucine (4) were synthesized as fluorescence labeled amino acids.These amino acids were used for the synthesis of N-terminal fluorescence-labeled peptides.N-(2-Pyridyl)-1,2
