Chloride-Assisted Peptide Macrocyclization

The role of the Cl- anion as a templating agent for the synthesis of cyclopeptides was assessed through the preparation of three new homocyclolysines and other six cyclic peptides by head-to-tail lactamization. Isolated yields of products obtai

Peptide bond formation by aminolysin-A catalysis: A simple approach to enzymatic synthesis of diverse short oligopeptides and biologically active puromycins

A new S9 family aminopeptidase derived from the actinobacterial thermophile Acidothermus cellulolyticus was cloned and engineered into a transaminopeptidase by site-directed mutagenesis of catalytic Ser491 into Cys. The engineered biocatalyst, designated aminolysin-A, can catalyze the formation of peptide bonds to give linear homo-oligopeptides, hetero-dipeptides, and cyclic dipeptides using cost-effective substrates in a one-pot reaction. Aminolysin-A can recognize several C-terminal-modified amino acids, including the l- and d-forms, as acyl donors as well as free amines, including amino acids and puromycin aminonucleoside, as acyl acceptors. The absence of amino acid esters prevents the formation of peptides; therefore, the reaction mechanism involves aminolysis and not a reverse reaction of hydrolysis. The aminolysin system will be a beneficial tool for the preparation of structurally diverse peptide mimetics by a simple approach.

Engineered transaminopeptidase, aminolysin-S for catalysis of peptide bond formation to give linear and cyclic dipeptides by one-pot reaction

Aminopeptidase from Streptomyces thermocyaneoviolaceus NBRC14271 was engineered into transaminopeptidase and used to catalyze an aminolysis reaction to give linear and cyclic dipeptides from cost-effective substrates such as the ester derivatives of amino

Retro Aza Diels-Alder Reactions of 2-Azanorbornenes: Improved Methods for the Unmasking of Primary Amines

The unmasking of primary amines via the heterocycloreversion of N-alkyl-2-azanorbornenes can be catalyzed by either copper(II) or a sulfonic acid based ion exchange resin which obviates the necessity of employing a reactive dienophile to trap the cyclopentadiene as it is produced.
