Can a consecutive double turn conformation be considered as a peptide based molecular scaffold for supramolecular helix in the solid state?
摘要:
Helices and sheets are ubiquitous in nature. However, there are also some examples of self-assembling molecules forming supramolecular helices and sheets in unnatural systems. Unlike supramolecular sheets there are a very few examples of peptide sub-units that can be used to construct supramolecular helical architectures using the backbone hydrogen bonding functionalities of peptides. In this report we describe the design and synthesis of two single turn/bend forming peptides (Boc-Phe-Aib-Ile-OMe 1 and Boc-Ala-Leu-Aib-OMe 2) (Aib: alpha-aminoisobutyric acid) and a series of double-turn forming peptides (Boc-Phe-Aib-IIe-Aib-OMe 3, Boc-Leu-Aib-Gly-Aib-OMe 4 and Boc-gamma-Abu-Aib-Leu-Aib-OMe 5) (gamma-Abu: gamma-aminobutyric acid). It has been found that, in crystals, on self-assembly, single turn/bend forming peptides form either a supramolecular sheet (peptide 1) or a supramolecular helix (peptide 2). unlike self-associating double turn forming peptides, which have only the option of forming supramolecular helical assemblages.

A single crystal X-ray diffraction study of the tripeptide Boc-Phe-Aib-Leu-OMe (Aib =
α-aminoisobutyric acid) reveals that it forms structurally one of the best type II β-turns so far reported in tripeptides, stabilized by 10 atom intramolecular hydrogen bonding. In contrast, the isomeric tripeptide Boc-Phe-Leu-Aib-OMe adopts a β-strand like conformation. Interestingly, a previously reported structure of another isomeric tripeptide, Boc-Leu-Aib-Phe-OMe, shows a double bend conformation without any intramolecular hydrogen bonding. These results demonstrate an example of the creation of structural diversities in the backbone of small peptides depending upon the co-operative steric interactions amongst the amino acid residues.

tripeptide-based low molecular weight super-organogelators were synthesized and characterized. Four tripeptides with diverse steric crowding at the central amino acid residue were studied. From this series, only sterically less hindered peptide 1 and peptide 3 formedorganogels in different saturated hydrocarbons, crude oil, and aromatic solvents. In diesel, the peptides formed gels at 1 wt%, i.e. they

Inverse Peptide Synthesis Using Transient Protected Amino Acids
C → N peptide chemical synthesis. The mandatory use of the Nα-protecting group invokes two additional operations for incorporating each aminoacid, resulting in poor step- and atom-economy. The burgeoning demand in the peptide therapeutic market necessitates cost-effective and environmentally friendly peptide manufacturing strategies. Inverse peptide chemical synthesis using unprotected amino acids
在过去的三十年里,肽疗法经历了快速复兴。虽然少数肽药物是生物生产的,但大多数是通过化学合成生产的。 α-氨基酸氨基的预先保护、羧基的活化、与不断增长的肽链的游离氨基的氨解、N末端的脱保护的循环构成了常规C→N肽的原理化学合成。强制使用 N α -保护基团需要两次额外的操作来掺入每个氨基酸,导致步骤经济性和原子经济性较差。肽治疗市场不断增长的需求需要具有成本效益且环保的肽生产策略。使用未受保护的氨基酸的逆肽化学合成已被认为是一种理想且有吸引力的策略。然而,由于N→C肽链延伸过程中严重的外消旋/差向异构化,该技术在60多年来一直没有成功。在此,这一挑战已通过采用瞬态保护策略的 ynamide 偶联试剂成功解决。活化、瞬时保护、氨解和原位脱保护在一锅中完成,从而提供了一种以未保护的氨基酸为起始原料的实用的肽化学合成策略。肽活性药物成分的合成证明了其稳健性。它还适用于片段缩合和反固相肽合成。与绿色
