description

Selenocysteine (Sec) is a natural amino acid and this building block can be used to incorporate it into a peptide sequence. Sec has also been used successfully for native chemical ligation (NCL), as selenium shows higher nucleophilicity than sulfur. Acylation with an amino acid will result in a selenium ester as intermediate. After Se-to-N acyl shift the thermodynamically more stable amid will result forming a natural amide bond. Deselenification can be carried out with reductive agents yielding alanine at this position in the peptide sequence.
