Cyclic Peptides and Branched Peptides
Constraints by cyclization at either the backbone or side chain of the peptide are expected to reinforce and enhance the stability of the 3D-structure, such as α-helix, as well as the increment of the resistance to the enzymatic digestion.
Cyclized Peptides
cyclo(X1-X2——–Xn)
Head-to-tail cyclization
X = NH : polypeptide
X = O : depsipeptide
(including N-methyl amino acids)
Diketopiperazine
R=H : cyclo(X-Pro)
R=OH : cyclo(X-Hyp)
cyclo(X-X)
Staple peptide
site-specific ligation using olefin metathesis
Cyclization at side chain
Lactone/Thiolactone
X=O : lactone
X=S : thiolactone
Thioether
Deamino-dicarba
[Asu 1,6]-Oxytocin
(Deamino-Dicarba-Oxytocin)
Oxytocin
Branched Peptides(Isopeptides)
Branched at Asp/Glu
n=1 : Asp
n=2 : Glu
Branched at Lys
Branched at Ser/Thr
X=H : Ser
X=CH3 : Thr
We have lots of successful syntheses of the cyclic peptides as well as the branched peptides.
