Due to the hazardous nature of CH2Cl2, regulatory authorities have imposed restrictions to minimize or even stop its use. It has therefore become imperative to identify environmentally benign solvents to replace it. Here we report on a bio derived solvent, γ-valerolactone, for the incorporation of the first amino acid onto p-alkoxybenzyl alcohol resin in solid-phase peptide synthesis. Satisfactory loading values (by a spectrophotometric method) were achieved. Furthermore, racemization and dipeptide formation were also checked and found to be acceptable.

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
