Three model tripeptides, N-acetyl-Tyr-Pro-azaGly-NH2 (NYPaG), Tyr-Pro- azaGly-NH2 (YPaG), and Tyr-Pro-Gly-NH2(YPG), were subjected to a systematic degradation study to get information about the degradation of the azaglycinamido residue The degradation products were characterized with LC- MS. Main degradation products of NYPaG possess partially or totally eliminated azaglycinamido residues, while YPaG and YPG are exhibit cyclo(Tyr- Pro) formation, a diketopiperazine. The influence of the pH on the degradation rate constant k(obs) was investigated for NYPaG and YPaG in the pH range 0.4-11. An U-shaped profile with an inflexion around pH 9 was found for NYPaG while the degradation rate of YPaG was independent of the pH. NYPaG apparently was subject to proton-, solvent-, and hydroxyl-catalyzed degradation reactions whereas YPaG only underwent solvent-catalyzed reactions. Some influence of acetate and phosphate ions on k(obs) was found for YPaG. Arrhenius plots of NYPaG and YPaG were found to be linear. (C) 2000 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

The selective reduction of the amide carbonyl group of the lithium salt of N-t-butoxycarbonyl (S)-O-benzyltyrosyl (S)-proline was carried out with 2 tool equivalents of BH3 in tetrahydrofuran at r.t., providing a selectively reduced dipeptide i

Immunization with segments (117-137 and 121-137) of the surface antigen of hepatitis B virus (HBsAg) had been reported to protect against HB infection.Therefore in addition to these peptides, HBsAg(124-137) and the three C-terminally amidated derivatives
