1.Synthesis and structural characterization of sialic acid-glutamic acid hybrid foldamers as conformational surrogates of alpha-2,8-linked polysialic acid.
Saludes JP1, Ames JB, Gervay-Hague J. J Am Chem Soc. 2009 Apr 22;131(15):5495-505. doi: 10.1021/ja808286x.
Surface expression of alpha-(2,8)-linked polymers of sialic acid in adult tissues has been correlated with metastasis of several human cancers. One approach to chemotherapeutic intervention against the spread of these cancers involves the development of immunogenic molecules that elicit an antibody response against alpha-(2,8)-linked polysialic acids. Naturally occurring polysialic acids are not viable candidates because they are present during embryonic development and are recognized as self by the immune system. These natural polymers also have poor pharmacokinetic properties because they are readily degraded by neuraminidase enzymes. We have been interested in developing structural surrogates of polysialic acids in an effort to overcome these limitations. Reported herein are microwave-assisted solid-phase peptide syntheses and structural characterization studies of a series of alpha/delta hybrid peptides derived from Fmoc-Neu2en and Fmoc-Glu(OtBu)-OH.
2.Solid-Phase Total Synthesis of Bacitracin A.
Lee J1, Griffin JH, Nicas TI. J Org Chem. 1996 Jun 14;61(12):3983-3986.
An efficient solid-phase method for the total synthesis of bacitracin A is reported. This work was undertaken in order to provide a general means of probing the intriguing mode of action of the bacitracins and exploring their potential for use against emerging drug-resistant pathogens. The synthetic approach to bacitracin A involves three key features: (1) linkage to the solid support through the side chain of the L-asparaginyl residue at position 12 (L-Asn(12)), (2) cyclization through amide bond formation between the alpha-carboxyl of L-Asn(12) and the side chain amino group of L-Lys(8), and (3) postcyclization addition of the N-terminal thiazoline dipeptide as a single unit. To initiate the synthesis, Fmoc L-Asp(OH)-OAllyl was attached to a PAL resin. The chain of bacitracin A was elaborated in the C-to-N direction by sequential piperidine deprotection/HBTU-mediated coupling cycles with Fmoc D-Asp(OtBu)-OH, Fmoc L-His(Trt)-OH, Fmoc D-Phe-OH, Fmoc L-Ile-OH, Fmoc D-Orn(Boc)-OH, Fmoc L-Lys(Aloc)-OH, Fmoc L-Ile-OH, Fmoc D-Glu(OtBu)-OH, and Fmoc L-Leu-OH.
3.Efficient Fmoc/solid-phase synthesis of Abu(P)-containing peptides using Fmoc-Abu(PO3Me2)-OH.
Perich JW1. Int J Pept Protein Res. 1994 Sep;44(3):288-94.
The synthesis of the two 4-phosphono-2-aminobutanoyl-containing peptides, Leu-Arg-Arg-Val-Abu(P)-Leu-Gly-OH.CF3CO2H and Ile-Val-Pro-Asn-Abu(P)-Val-Glu-Glu-OH.CF3CO2H was accomplished by the use of Fmoc-Abu(PO3Me2)-OH in Fmoc/solid-phase peptide synthesis. The protected phosphoamino acid, Fmoc-Abu(PO3Me2)-OH, was prepared from Boc-Asp-OtBu in seven steps, the formation of the C-P linkage being effected by the treatment of Boc-Asa-OtBu with dimethyl trimethylsilyl phosphite. Peptide synthesis was performed using Wang Resin as the polymer support with both peptides assembled by the use of PyBOP for the coupling of Fmoc amino acids and 20% piperidine for cleavage of the Fmoc group from the Fmoc-peptide after each coupling cycle. Cleavage of the peptide from the resin and peptide deprotection was accomplished by the treatment of the peptide-resin with 5% thioanisole/TFA followed by cleavage of the methyl phosphonate group by 1 M bromotrimethylsilane/1 M thioanisole in TFA.
4.A 'conovenomic' analysis of the milked venom from the mollusk-hunting cone snail Conus textile--the pharmacological importance of post-translational modifications.
Bergeron ZL1, Chun JB, Baker MR, Sandall DW, Peigneur S, Yu PY, Thapa P, Milisen JW, Tytgat J, Livett BG, Bingham JP. Peptides. 2013 Nov;49:145-58. doi: 10.1016/j.peptides.2013.09.004. Epub 2013 Sep 18.
Cone snail venoms provide a largely untapped source of novel peptide drug leads. To enhance the discovery phase, a detailed comparative proteomic analysis was undertaken on milked venom from the mollusk-hunting cone snail, Conus textile, from three different geographic locations (Hawai'i, American Samoa and Australia's Great Barrier Reef). A novel milked venom conopeptide rich in post-translational modifications was discovered, characterized and named α-conotoxin TxIC. We assign this conopeptide to the 4/7 α-conotoxin family based on the peptide's sequence homology and cDNA pre-propeptide alignment. Pharmacologically, α-conotoxin TxIC demonstrates minimal activity on human acetylcholine receptor models (100 μM, <5% inhibition), compared to its high paralytic potency in invertebrates, PD50 = 34.2 nMol kg(-1). The non-post-translationally modified form, [Pro](2,8)[Glu](16)α-conotoxin TxIC, demonstrates differential selectivity for the α3β2 isoform of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor with maximal inhibition of 96% and an observed IC50 of 5.
