Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a major mediator in innate immunity and inflammation and a potential therapeutic target in multiple inflammatory, infectious and autoimmune diseases including cancer. Current therapeutic strategies for target ...
A method for the para-selective alkynylation of anilines is reported using AuCl as catalyst and triisopropylsilylethynyl-1,2-benziodoxol-3(1H)-one (TIPS-EBX) as an electrophilic acetylene equivalent. Para-alkynyl anilines substituted at positions 2 or 3 we ...
(-)-Quinocarcin (I) has been synthesized in a longest linear sequence of 22 steps from 3-hydroxybenzaldehyde in 16% overall yield. The Pictet-Spengler reaction of L-tert-butyl-2-bromo-5-hydroxy phenylalanate, synthesized according to Corey-Lygo's enantiose ...
Introduction of highly reactive vinyl ether moieties along a poly(ethylene-glycol) (PEG) backbone has been realized by copolymerization of the novel epoxide monomer ethoxy vinyl glycidyl ether (EVGE) with ethylene oxide (EO). A series of copolymers with va ...
Many biologically active peptides are protected from general proteolytic degradation by evolutionary conserved prolines (Pro), due to conformational constraints imposed by the Pro residue. Thus the biological importance of prolyl-specific peptidases points ...
This feature article provides a compilation of tools available for preparing well-defined peptide/protein–polymer conjugates, which are defined as hybrid constructs combining (i) a defined number of peptide/protein segments with uniform chain lengths and d ...
Peptide based and peptide hybrid materials represent two interesting and challenging classes of biomaterials. Both classes consist of and contain, respectively, one or more polypeptide blocks, endowing the resulting polymers with enhanced self-assembly pro ...
The covalent attachment of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) to therapeutically active proteins (PEGylation) has become an important method to deal with the pharmacological difficulties of these polypeptides, such as short body-residence times and immunogenicity ...
We report on the characteristics of the radical-ion-driven dissociation of a diverse array of beta-amino acids incorporated into alpha-peptides, as probed by tandem electron-capture and electron-transfer dissociation (ECD/ETD) mass spectrometry. The report ...
Hot alkyne! The in situ generation of Ethynyl-1,2-BenziodoXol-3(1H)-one (EBX) from the corresponding silyl protected reagent using TBAF is reported. EBX displayed exceptional acetylene transfer ability to stabilized enolates, even at –78 °C. The mild react ...
