Synthesis of Cα methylated carboxylic acids: isosteres of arginine and lysine for use as N-terminal capping residues in polypeptides
摘要:
Replacement of the N-terminal alpha-amine with the isosteric methyl functionality in bioactive peptides can influence various pharmacokinetic parameters, including hydrophobicity and stability. C-alpha methylated amino acid analogues are thus of great interest to expand the repertoire of nonnatural synthons available as N-terminal 'capping' residues for peptide-based drug design. Several novel arginine and lysine analogues stereo selectively modified in the C-alpha position with a methyl group in place of the alpha-amine were prepared. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd.

An object of the present invention is to provide methods of discovering drugs effective for tough targets, which have conventionally been discovered only with difficulty. The present invention relates to novel methods for cyclizing peptide compounds, and novel peptide compounds and libraries comprising the same, to achieve the above object.
A set of three-armed urea-containing anion receptors was prepared. The receptors all have the same binding topology but differ in the level of conformational preorganisation with respect to the arrangement of the side-arms relative to the platform and within the side arms themselves. This is mirrored in a specific increase (x 2.5) in the binding constant for chloride and in a 12-fold increase in the chloride nitrate-selectivity.
