TransferRNA's role in protein translation is the prime example of an Informational Leaving Group (ILG). A simplified model produced oligophenylalanine with a modified uracil as an ILG in the presence of specific oligonucleotides. Our preliminary studies contribute to the importance of hybrid species in bridging the gap between peptides and nucleic acids.
NOVEL SEMI-SYNTHETIC GLYCOPEPTIDES AS ANTIBACTERIAL AGENTS
-
, (2015/03/06)
Semi-synthetic glycopeptides having antibacterial activity are described, in particular, the semi-synthetic glycopeptides described herein are made by chemical modification of the a glycopeptide (Compound A, Compound B, Compound H or Compound C) or the monosaccharide made by hydrolyzing the disaccharide moiety of the amino acid-4 of the parent glycopeptide in acidic medium to give the amino acid-4 monosaccharide; conversion of the monosaccharide to the amino-sugar derivative; acylation of the amino substituent on the amino acid-4 amino-substituted sugar moiety on these scaffolds with certain acyl groups; conversion of the amide group in amino acid-3 on these scaffolds to various acylamide, acylsulfonamide, acylsulfonylurea derivatives; aminomethylation with substituent containing sulfonamide or acylsulfonamide group on amino acid-7 through Mannich reaction; and conversion of the acid moiety on the macrocyclic ring of these scaffolds to certain substituted amides. Also provided are methods for the synthesis of the compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds, and methods of use of the compounds for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of diseases, especially bacterial infections.

Molecules were prepared with substituted nitrobenzyl groups covalently bonded to N-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzyl)acetamide (2) by ether or carbonate linkages. These compounds decomposed under irradiation at 363 nm. Those with carbonate linkages decomposed at
