Glycosylated peptides with glycosylation at or near the C-terminal domain of the peptide have an enhanced ability to cross the blood brain barrier (BBB) and/or enhanced half-lives. These glycosylated peptides may be used as drugs. For example, a PACAP peptide with a C-terminal glycosylation, e.g., in lieu of the terminal leucine, functions as a PAC1 agonist with enhanced ability to cross the BBB and with enhanced half-life. The peptides can have a pseudoproline residue with glycosylation at or near the C-terminal domain.
在肽的 C 端或 C 端附近糖基化的糖基化肽具有更强的穿越血脑屏障(BBB)的能力和/或更长的半衰期。这些糖基化
多肽可用作药物。例如,具有 C-末端糖基化的
PACAP 肽(如代替末端亮
氨酸)可作为
PAC1 激动剂,具有更强的穿过 BBB 的能力和更长的半衰期。这种
多肽可以在 C 端结构域或其附近具有糖基化的假脯
氨酸残基。
