Multipurpose isothiocyanyl alanine/lysine: Use as solvatochromic IR probes and in site specific labeling/ligation of short peptides
摘要:
The solvatochromic IR responsivity of small side chain-NCS in two unexplored unnatural amino acids, isothiocyanyl alanine ((NCS)Ala = Ita) and lysine ((NCS)Lys = Itl), without perturbing the conformation is demonstrated in two designed short tripeptide (BocAla-(NCS)Ala-Ala-OMe) and hexapeptide (BocLeu-ValPhe- Phe-(NCS)Lys-Gly-OMe). Demonstration of site specific fluorescent labeling in both the peptides and ligation type reaction in (NCS)Lys indicates the novelty of these two amino acids as alternative to the available canonical amino acids.

We employed a computational approach to design and synthesize a series of. fluorescently labeled hPEPT1 substrates. Five Alexa Fluor-350 (TM)-labeled peptides were assessed for their in vitro inhibitory activity in hPEPT1-transfected CHO cells. At least four labeled peptides show potent inhibitory activity toward hPEPT1-mediated uptake of [H-3]-GlySar and three compounds displayed a significant cellular uptake specifically mediated by hPEPT1.
