  5. Prolines with Hydrophobic Substituents

    Prolines are key elements positioned at the edge of β-turns in peptides. With modified prolines these positions can be used for either covalent amide or disulfide bonds – as we have demonstrated in many examples – or for filling hydrophobic pockets, whenever the pyrrolidine ring is substituted with groups like Methyl or Phenyl.

  6. Product of the Month: Fmoc-L-Cys(Dpm)-OH

    Any amino acid can be functionalized on the N-terminus with oxalic acid and on the C-terminus with hydrazine, in order to form a so-called NXO building block. Through this double modification N and C terminus will be inverted, which provides interesting structural options for peptidomimetics.

  9. Alpha-Sulfo-beta-Alanine

    alpha-Sulfo-beta-Alanine has been used to couple to hydrophobic labels like Cyanine and Rhodamine dyes and other hydrophobic residues to increase their solubility in water. As di- or tripeptide a further increase of hydrophilicity can be achieved. Fmoc-beta-Ala(SO3H)-OH can be coupled in SPPS by standard phosphonium or uronium based coupling reagents. In high throughput technologies for DNA sequencing and genomics charge-modified dye-labeled dideoxynucleoside-5’-triphosphates were synthesized for ‘direct-load’ applications in DNA sequencing.

  10. Green Advantages of using Phacm for Cystein Protection

    PGA (Penicillin G Amidase, Penicillin Acylase, Penicillin Amidohydrolase from E.coli on acrylic resin, Systematic name: Penicillin amidohydrolase, E.C. 3.5.1.11) has an active pocket, which is very specific for phenyl acetic acid. The prominent commercial use is hydrolysis of a phenylacetamid bond during production of the penicillin API 6-APA (De Martin et al., J. Mol. Catal. B:Enzymatic 1999; 6: 437). The high specifity of PGA towards the Phenylacetyl moiety makes the use of Phacm as new alternative for Acm very promising. The principle use already was discovered by Albericio et al in 1995 using native PGA. Today PGA is available as immobilized preparation, so by simple filtration process PGA can be removed from the reaction mixture and reused many times.
