1. Peptide synthesis catalyzed by the Glu/Asp-specific endopeptidase. Influence of the ester leaving group of the acyl donor on yield and catalytic efficiency

J Bongers, W Liu, T Lambros, K Breddam, R M Campbell, A M Felix, E P Heimer Int J Pept Protein Res. 1994 Aug;44(2):123-9.

We recently described a two-step enzymatic semisynthesis of the superpotent analog of human growth hormone releasing factor, [desNH2Tyr1,D-Ala2,Ala15]-GRF(1-29)-NH2 (4), from the precursor, [Ala15,29]-GRF(4-29)-OH (1). C-Terminal amidation of 1 to form [Ala15]-GRF(4-29)-NH2 (2) was achieved by carboxypeptidase-Y-catalyzed exchange of Ala29-OH for Arg-NH2. The target analog 4 was then obtained by acylation of segment 2 with desNH2Tyr-D-Ala-Asp(OH)-OR (3) (R = CH3CH2- or 4-NO2C6H4CH2-) catalyzed by the V8 protease. In this paper we report on the use of the recently isolated Glu/Asp-specific endopeptidase (GSE) from Bacillus licheniformis, which is shown to be an efficient catalyst for the segment condensation of 2 and 3. GSE is more stable than the V8 protease under the conditions employed (20% DMF, pH 8.2, 37 degrees C). The extent of conversion of 2 into 4 is limited by proteolyses at Asp3-Ala4 and Asp25-Ile26. However, this proteolysis is virtually eliminated by use of the appropriate ester leaving group, R. A systematic study of the kinetics of the GSE-catalyzed segment condensations of 2 and a series of tripeptide esters, desNH2Tyr-D-Ala-Asp(OH)-OR (3) [R = CH3CH2- (3a), CH3- (3b), ClCH2CH2- (3c), C6H5CH2- (3d), 4-NO2C6H4CH2- (3e)] revealed that rate of aminolysis versus proteolysis, and hence the conversion of 2 into 4, increase with increasing specificity (Vmax/Km) of GSE for the tripeptide ester.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

2. Enzymatic semisynthesis of a superpotent analog of human growth hormone-releasing factor

J Bongers, T Lambros, W Liu, M Ahmad, R M Campbell, A M Felix, E P Heimer J Med Chem. 1992 Oct 16;35(21):3934-41. doi: 10.1021/jm00099a022.

A superpotent analog of human growth hormone-releasing factor, [desNH2Tyr1,D-Ala2,Ala15]-GRF(1-29)-NH2 (4), was prepared from the precursor, [Ala15,29]-GRF(4-29)-OH (1), by a two-step enzymatic semisynthesis. The amidated C-terminus, essential for high biological potency, was obtained via a carboxypeptidase Y-catalyzed exchange of Ala29-OH for Arg29-NH2 to produce [Ala15]-GRF(4-29)-NH2 (2). The N-terminal desNH2Tyr-D-Ala moiety, which greatly increases in vivo duration of action, was then incorporated by V8 protease-catalyzed condensation of segment 2 with desNH2Tyr-D-Ala-Asp(OH)-OR [R = CH3CH2- (3a) or 4-NO2C6H4CH2-(3b)]. The main focus of this report was to develop conditions to use the V8 protease-catalyzed coupling while avoiding a competing cleavage of the proteolytically-sensitive Asp25-Ile26 bond in GRF. Conversion of 2 to 4 in couplings employing the alpha-ethyl ester of the acyl component 3a was limited to about 60% by competing proteolysis at Asp25-Ile26. This system was adequate for preparing, isolating, and fully characterizing the target analog 4 and identifying the side products. The 4-nitrobenzyl ester 3b proved to be a superior substrate, resulting in 90% conversion of 2 to 4 with no detectable loss to proteolysis and requiring significantly lesser amounts of catalyst. These results demonstrate that enzymatic semisynthesis of a biologically-active peptide amide which contains unnatural amino acids at the N-terminus can be achieved from a biosynthetic precursor in good yield and purity.

3. Nitrogen balance and mineral excretion in growing male pigs injected with a human growth hormone-releasing factor analog

P Dubreuil, T Abribat, P Brazeau, H Lapierre Can J Vet Res. 1998 Jan;62(1):9-13.

A human growth hormone-releasing factor analog ([Desamino-Tyr1,D-Ala2,Ala15] hGRF(1-29) NH2) has been reported to reduce feed intake and increase growth and feed efficiency in a dose-dependent manner in growing pigs. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of this analog on nitrogen (N) balance and mineral excretion. Fifteen castrated male Yorkshire x Landrace pigs (45.9 +/- 1.4 kg) were randomly allotted to 2 groups: control (saline, n = 7) and GRF (6.66 micrograms/kg sc, TID, n = 8). The animals were injected for 20 consecutive days: feces and urine were collected during the last 10 d of injection. The animals had free access to water and food until satiety (approximately 15 min) at 07:00, 11:00, 15:00, 19:00, 23:00 and 07:00 h. The diet consisted of a hog fattening ration (18.0% crude protein). Blood samples were collected on the last day of the study by venipuncture. This analog increased (P < 0.05) insulin-like growth factor-1 and glucose serum concentrations and decreased (P < 0.05) serum urea nitrogen concentration and feed intake. The GRF-treated animals ingested less N, excreted less N in urine and feces to retain a similar amount of N than controls. The apparent coefficient of digestibility of the N has been slightly increased (P < 0.05) by GRF. Urinary excretion of P, K, and Cl decreased (P < 0.01) with GRF treatment. In conclusion, this GRF analog increased N digestibility and retention relative to N ingestion and reduced urinary N, P, K, and Cl excretion.
