Zemlyakov,Kur'yanov,Tsikalova,Chirva
, p. 568 - 570 (1997)
It is proposed to use a hydrazine "bridge" for obtaining conjugates of glycopeptides with biologically active carboxylic acids. Diacylhydrazines have been synthesized from glucofuranosylglycoloyl-L-alanine and β-butylmuramoyltripeptide.

The synthesis of novel pyrimidine nucleoside bioconjugates with amino acids is presented. The N4-amino acid-acylated 2′-deoxycytidine analogues, modified with various amino acids, were synthesized using a three-step synthesis and obtained in moderate overall yields. Novel amino acid-alkylated 2′-deoxycytidine derivatives were obtained during the rearrangement of amino acid-acylated derivatives that occurred during Boc deprotection.

Exploration of the full potential of thioamide substitution as a tool in the chemical biology of peptides and proteins has been hampered by insufficient synthetic strategies for the site-specific introduction of a thioamide bond into a peptide backbone. A novel ynamide-mediated two-step strategy for thiopeptide bond formation with readily available monothiocarboxylic acids as thioacyl donors is described. The α-thioacyloxyenamide intermediates formed from the ynamides and monothiocarboxylic acids can be purified, characterized, and stored. The balance between their activity and stability enables them to act as effective thioacylating reagents to afford thiopeptide bonds under mild reaction conditions. Amino acid functional groups such as OH, CONH2, and indole NH groups need not be protected during thiopeptide synthesis. The modular nature of this strategy enables the site-specific incorporation of a thioamide bond into peptide backbones in both solution and the solid phase.

Antibiotic chloramphenicol (CHL) binds with a moderate affinity at the peptidyl transferase center of the bacterial ribosome and inhibits peptide bond formation. As an approach for modifying and potentially improving properties of this inhibitor, we explored ribosome binding and inhibitory activity of a number of amino acid analogs of CHL. The L-histidyl analog binds to the ribosome with the affinity exceeding that of CHL by 10 fold. Several of the newly synthesized analogs were able to inhibit protein synthesis and exhibited the mode of action that was distinct from the action of CHL. However, the inhibitory properties of the semi-synthetic CHL analogs did not correlate with their affinity and in general, the amino acid analogs of CHL were less active inhibitors of translation in comparison with the original antibiotic. The X-ray crystal structures of the Thermus thermophilus 70S ribosome in complex with three semi-synthetic analogs showed that CHL derivatives bind at the peptidyl transferase center, where the aminoacyl moiety of the tested compounds established idiosyncratic interactions with rRNA. Although still fairly inefficient inhibitors of translation, the synthesized compounds represent promising chemical scaffolds that target the peptidyl transferase center of the ribosome and potentially are suitable for further exploration.

The present invention discloses chemical synthesis, anti-tumor and anti-metastatic effects of a dual functional conjugate as showed by formula I. In detail, paclitaxel or docetaxol is linked with muramyl dipeptide derivative to form a conjugate, thus dual anti-tumor and anti-metastatic effects are achieved by combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy. The present invention also discloses that paclitaxel or docetaxol and muramyl dipeptide derivative conjugate is synthesized by combination of solid-phase and solution-phase synthesis, and said conjugate can be used in manufacture of anti-tumor medicaments as proved by reliable bioassays.
N,O-Bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide/N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (BSA/NHS) as coupling agents for dipeptide synthesis
Huang, Ye,Feng, Wen-Hua
, p. 357 - 360 (2016/03/16)
A method using N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide/N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (BSA/NHS) as coupling agents for dipeptide synthesis is descried. The coupling reaction between N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) esters and amines could be performed under mild conditions with N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide (BSA) as coupling reagent and no additional acid/base is required. All byproducts and excessive reactants are water soluble or hydrolysable and easy to eliminate through water-washing at the purification stage. Moreover, all the reactants are inexpensive and widely used in conventional drug production.
Synthetic tripeptides as alternate substrates of murein peptide ligase (Mpl)
Hervé, Mireille,Kova?, Andreja,Cardoso, Cécile,Patin, Delphine,Brus, Boris,Barreteau, Hélène,Mengin-Lecreulx, Dominique,Gobec, Stanislav,Blanot, Didier

Murein peptide ligase (Mpl) is an enzyme found in Gram-negative bacteria. It catalyses the addition of tripeptide l-Ala-γ-d-Glu-meso-diaminopimelate to nucleotide precursor UDP-N-acetylmuramic acid during the recycling of peptidoglycan. Although not essential, this enzyme represents an interesting target for antibacterial compounds through the synthesis of alternate substrates whose incorporation into peptidoglycan might be deleterious for the bacterial cell. Therefore, we have synthesised 10 tripeptides l-Ala-γ-d-Glu-Xaa in which Xaa represents amino acids different from diaminopimelic acid. Tripeptide with Xaa = ε-d-Lys proved to be an excellent substrate of Escherichia coli Mpl in vitro. Tripeptides with Xaa = p-amino- or p-nitro-l-phenylalanine were poor substrates, while tripeptides with Xaa = d- or l-2-aminopimelate, dl-2-aminoheptanoic acid, l-Glu, l-norleucine, l-norvaline, l-2-aminobutyric acid or l-Ala were not substrates at all. Although a good Mpl substrate, the d-Lys-containing tripeptide was devoid of antibacterial activity against E. coli, presumably owing to poor uptake.

A facile, efficient and racemization-free method for the synthesis of N-protected β-amino alcohols and peptaibols using N-hydroxysuccinimide active esters is described. Using this method, dipeptide, tripeptide and pentapeptide alcohols were isolated in high yields. The conformations in crystals of β-amino alcohol, dipeptide and tripeptide alcohols were analysed, with a well-defined type III β-turn being observed in the tripeptide alcohol crystals. This method is found to be compatible with Fmoc-, Boc- and other side-chain protecting groups.
