Building Units for N-Backbone Cyclic Peptides. 3. Synthesis of Protected Nα-(ω-Aminoalkyl)amino Acids and Nα-(ω-Carboxyalkyl)amino Acids
摘要:
An improved synthesis of a family of amino acids that contain omega-aminoalkyl groups and of a new family containing omega-carboxyalkyl groups linked to the alpha-amine is described. The synthesis was performed by alkylation of suitably monoprotected alkylenediamines and protected omega-amino acids with triflates of alpha-hydroxy acid esters. The reaction proceeded with inversion of configuration yielding optically pure products. The N-alpha-(omega-aminoalkyl)amino acids and N-alpha-(omega-carboxyalkyl)amino acids were orthogonally protected to allow their incorporation into peptides by solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) methodology.

described a process of trypsin‐assisted peptidesplicing of analogs of trypsininhibitor SFTI‐1, that seems to be very similar to proteasome‐catalyzed peptidesplicing. Here, we show, for the first time, that a peptide–peptoid hybrid (peptomer) can also be spliced by trypsin. Incubation of a double sequence SFTI‐1 analog, containing two peptoid monomers, with equimolar amount of trypsin leads to formation

Novel remedies in the battle against multidrug-resistant bacterial strains are urgently needed, and one obvious approach involves antimicrobial peptides and mimics hereof. The impact of alpha- and beta-peptoid as well as beta(3)-amino acid modifications on the activity profile against beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli was assessed by testing an array comprising different types of cationic peptidomimetics obtained by a general monomer-based solid-phase synthesis protocol. Most of the peptidomimetics possessed high to moderate activity toward multidrug-resistant E. coli as opposed to the corresponding inactive peptides. Nevertheless, differences in hemolytic activities indicate that a careful choice of backbone design constitutes a significant parameter in the search for effective cationic antimicrobial peptidomimetics targeting specific bacteria.
