For the classical solution synthesis of human epidermal growth factor (h-EGF), four protected peptide derivatives, Boc-Lys(Cl-Z)-Trp-Trp-Glu(OcHex)-Leu-Arg(Tos)-OBzl (5), Boc-Glu(OcHex)-Arg(Tos)-Cys(MeBzl)-Gln-Tyr(Br-Z)-Arg(Tos)-Asp(OcHex)-Leu-OH (13), Boc-Tyr(Br-Z)-Ile-Gly-OH (16), and Boc-Cys(MeBzl)-Asn-Cys(MeBzl)-Val-Val-Gly-OH (22) were synthesized to build up the sequence corresponding to 31–53.

For the synthesis of bovine proinsulin, the S-sulfonate of the Leu–Glu–Gly–Pro–Pro–Gln–Lys[Z(2-Cl)]–Arg–A-chain, which was synthesized using the S-sulfonate of the A-chain of natural bovine insulin and which corresponds to positions 53–81 of bovine proinsulin, was coupled with Boc–Ala–Leu–Glu(OBut)–Leu–Ala–Gly–Gly–Pro–Gly–Ala–Gly–Gly–N3. After removal of the protecting groups from the resulting material
analogues of arginine-vasopressin (AVP), twohighly selective antidiuretic (V2) agonists, four vasopressor (V1) antagonists, and five V2/V1 antagonists. The parent AVP agonists are (1) AVP, (2) 1-deamino[8-D-arginine]vasopressin (dDAVP), and (3) its 4-valine analogue, dVDAVP. The parent V1 antagonists are (4) [1-(beta-mercapto-beta,beta-pentamethylenepropionic acid)] arginine-vasopressin (d(CH2)5AVP)

The nonatetracontapeptide corresponding to the revised amino acid sequence of thymopoietin II was synthesized by assembling ten peptide fragments in solution followed by deprotection with 1 M trifluoromethanesulfonic acid-thioanisole (molar ratio, 1 : 1) in trifluoroacetic acid in the presence of dimethylselenide and m-cresol. The synthetic nonatetracontapeptide was tested for effect on impaired T-lymphocyte transformation by phytohemagglutinin (PHA) in a uremic patient with pneumonia. The synthetic peptide was found to have restoring activity on the impaired PHA stimulation of T-lymphocytes; the minimum effective concentration was 1 μg/ml.
Amino acids and peptides. XXVIII. Synthesis of peptide fragments related to eglin c and studies on the relationship between their structure and effects on human leukocyte elastase, cathepsin G and .ALPHA.-chymotrypsin.
Various peptide fragments related to eglin c, which consists of 70 amino acid residues, were synthesized by a conventional solution method and their inhibitory effects on leukocyte elastase, cathepsin G and α-chymotrypsin were examined. Among them, H-Arg-Glu-Tyr-Phe-OMe (eglin c 22-25) and H-Ser-Pro-Val-Thr-Leu-Asp-Leu-Arg-Tyr-OMe (eglin c 41-49) inhibited cathepsin G and α-chymotrypsin but not leukocyte elastase, while H-Thr-Asn-Val-Val-OMe (eglin c 60-63) inhibited leukocyte elastase but not cathepsin G or α-chymotrypsin, although eglin c potently inhibited leukocyte elastase, cathepsin G and α-chymotrypsin. These results indicated that the interaction sites of eglin c with leukocyte elastase, cathepsin G and α-chymotrypsin might be different.
采用常规的溶液法合成了与来自家蚕血淋巴的抗蛋白酶eglin c(由70个氨基酸残基构成)相关的各种肽片段,并检验了它们对白细胞弹性蛋白酶、组织蛋白酶G和α-胰凝乳蛋白酶的抑制效应。其中,H-Arg-Glu-Tyr-Phe-OMe(eglin c 22-25)和H-Ser-Pro-Val-Thr-Leu-Asp-Leu-Arg-Tyr-OMe(eglin c 41-49)能抑制组织蛋白酶G和α-胰凝乳蛋白酶,但不能抑制白细胞弹性蛋白酶,而H-Thr-Asn-Val-Val-OMe(eglin c 60-63)能抑制白细胞弹性蛋白酶,但不能抑制组织蛋白酶G或α-胰凝乳蛋白酶,尽管eglin c对白细胞弹性蛋白酶、组织蛋白酶G和α-胰凝乳蛋白酶都具有强抑制作用。这些结果提示,eglin c与白细胞弹性蛋白酶、组织蛋白酶G和α-胰凝乳蛋白酶的相互作用部位可能各不相同。
