Profiling primary protease specificity by peptide synthesis on a solid support

Reverse screening: A greatly simplified primary screening of protease specificity has been achieved by monitoring the fluorescence during the protease-catalyzed coupling of amino acids instead of peptide hydrolysis on a solid support (see picture, AA = amino acid). This approach paves the way for flexible, rapid, high-throughput identification and characterization of proteases without the need for expensively labeled peptide arrays.

Reaction of N-Fmoc aspartic anhydride with glycosylamines: a simple entry to N-glycosyl asparagines

The reaction of N-Fmoc-aspartic anhydride with glycosyl amines in DMSO selectively leads to the formation of β-substituted products, thus providing a simple and efficient route to N-glycosyl asparagine derivatives, the building blocks for glycopeptide synthesis.

A new polymer-supported reagent for the Fmoc-protection of amino acids

A new polymer-supported Fmoc-OSu (Fmoc-P-OSu) has been prepared from polymer-bound N-hydroxysuccinimide (P-HOSu), and used as a solid-supported reagent for the Fmoc-protection of amino groups. The residual P-HOSu generated after the protection reaction can be separated by simple filtration and reused.

MgI2-Mediated Chemoselective Cleavage of Protecting Groups: An Alternative to Conventional Deprotection Methodologies

The scope of MgI2 as a valuable tool for quantitative and mild chemoselective cleavage of protecting groups is described here. This novel synthetic approach expands the use of protecting groups, widens the concept of orthogonality in synthetic processes, and offers a facile opportunity to release compounds from solid supports. Amazing MgI2: Protecting groups have had a tremendous positive impact on the art of biomolecule synthesis. In a context in which the use of attractive protecting groups is often limited by harsh deprotection conditions and low chemoselective flexibility, MgI2 offers, by the execution of a very simple protocol, a fresh vision with extensive perspectives.

Ethyl substituted coumarin-4-yl derivatives as photoremovable protecting groups for amino acids with improved stability for SPPS

The synthesis, photochemical properties and chemical stability of 7-(N,N-diethylamino-coumarin-4-yl)-1-ethyl (DEACE) photoremovable protecting group for carboxylic acids are presented. We demonstrate that the ethyl substituent of DEACE improves the hydrolytic stability of the protected ester in basic conditions used in solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) and retains the good photochemical properties of the coumarin-4-yl methyl derivatives. DEACE allows the preparation of peptides with protected carboxylic side groups with high yield via SPPS.

New TFA-free cleavage and final deprotection in Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis: Dilute HCl in fluoro alcohol

A novel method for cleaving from resin and removing acid-labile protecting groups for the Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis is described. 0.1 N HCl in hexafluoroisopropanol or trifluoroethanol cleanly and rapidly removes the tert-butyl ester and ether, Boc, trityl, and Pbf groups and cleaves the common resin linkers: Wang, HMPA, Rink amide, and PAL. Addition of just 5-10% of a hydrogen-bonding solvent considerably retards or even fully inhibits the reaction. However, a non-hydrogen-bonding solvent is tolerated.

A microwave-assisted synthesis of (S)-N-protected homoserine γ-lactones from l-aspartic acid

A three-pot preparation of (S)-N-protected homoserine γ-lactones is presented. Conversion of N-protected l-aspartic acid to an oxazolidinone is followed by selective reduction/acid-catalyzed cyclization to deliver the lactones. Microwave irradiation proved valuable for improving the latter reaction steps in some cases.

Liquid-chromatography quantitative analysis of 20 amino acids after derivatization with FMOC-CI and its application to different origin Radix isatidis

We developed a simple, rapid and reliable method for determination of 20 common amino acids based on derivatization with 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (FMOC-CI) and RP-LC/UV, this method was first introduced into quantitative analysis of amino acids. The amino groups of amino acids were trapped with FMOC-CI to form amino acid-FMOC-Cl adducts which can be suitable for LC-UV. Chromatographic separation was performed on a C18 column with a mobile phase gradient consisting of acetonitrile and sodium acetate solution. This method was shown to be sensitive for 20 common amino acids. In the intra-day precisions assay, the range of RSDs was 3.21-7.67% with accuracies of 92.34-102.51%; for the inter-day precisions assay, the range of RSDs was 5.82-9.19% with accuracies of 90.25-100.63%. The results also indicated that solutions of amino acids-FMOC-Cl can be kept at room temperature for at least 24 h without showing significant losses in the quantified values. The validated method was successfully applied to the determination of major four kinds of amino acids in R. isatidis samples (Arg, Pro, Met and Val). The total content of amino acids in different origin R. isatidis was 13.32-19.16 mg/g. The differences between R. isatidis samples were large using HCA.

Identification of small peptides mimicking the R2 C-terminus of Mycobacterium tuberculosis ribonucleotide reductase

Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) is a viable target for new drugs against the causative agent of tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Previous work has shown that an N-acetylated heptapeptide based on the C-terminal sequence of the smaller RNR subunit can disrupt the formation of the holoenzyme sufficiently to inhibit its function. Here the synthesis and binding affinity, evaluated by competitive fluorescence polarization, of several truncated and N-protected peptides are described. The protected single-amino acid Fmoc-Trp shows binding affinity comparable to the N-acetylated heptapeptide, making it an attractive candidate for further development of non-peptidic RNR inhibitors.
