The ShK toxin is a polypeptide that blocks the Kv1.3 potassium channel in T-lymphocytes and has been identified as a potential therapeutic for multiple sclerosis. ShK is well characterised in terms of structure and binding, offering an attractive target for the design of structural and functional mimetics. Building on our previous success in developing rationally designed peptidomimetics of ShK, we report a novel mimetic of the K22-Y23-R24 residues of the peptide. The mimetic was shown to inhibit the Kv1.3 channel with moderate activity.
Selective and Efficient Formylation of Indoles (C3) and Pyrroles (C2) Using 2,4,6-Trichloro-1,3,5-Triazine/Dimethylformamide (TCT/DMF) Mixed Reagent

This study introduces an efficient method for the selective formylation of indoles and pyrroles at the positions of C(3) and C(2), respectively. The mixture of three equivalents of N,N-dimethylformamide and one equivalent of 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine (cyanuric chloride) generates an easy handling formylating agent for the efficient formylation of these classes of compounds to give the corresponding aldehydes under mild reaction conditions. This procedure was highly efficient, and a range of formylated indoles and pyrroles were obtained in good to excellent yields.
