Selenocysteine in native chemical ligation and expressed protein ligation.
L-Selenocysteine (Sec or U) has been called the “21st amino acid”.1 Like the twenty common amino acids, selenocysteine is inserted during the translation of mRNA and has its own tRNASec and codon, UGA. This codon also serves as the opal stop codon. Decoding a UGA codon as one for selenocysteine requires a special structure in the 3′ untranslated region of the mRNA called a selenocysteine insert...
متن کاملSimplifying native chemical ligation with an N-acylsulfonamide linker.
We report a simplified procedure for the chemical ligation of peptides by using the sulfamylbutyryl linker as a mildly activating group capable of participating in ligation. When the peptidyl N-methylsulfonamide is directly added with excess thiols to ligation reactions, the speed of reaction is comparable to native chemical ligation.
متن کاملProtein-liposome conjugates using cysteine-lipids and native chemical ligation.
Liposomes have become popular drug delivery vehicles and have more recently also been applied as contrast agents for molecular imaging. Most current methods for functionalization of liposomes with targeting proteins rely on reactions of amine or thiol groups at the protein exterior, which generally result in nonspecific conjugation at multiple sites on the protein. In this study, we present nat...
متن کاملExamination of native chemical ligation using peptidyl prolyl thioesters.
Peptidyl prolyl thioesters, which have been regarded as too unreactive for practical use in native chemical ligations (NCLs), were proven to be versatile reagents in peptide coupling. Tuning the reactivity of prolyl thioesters enabled a one-pot/sequential NCL reaction based on kinetically controlled ligation.
متن کاملNative chemical ligation: a boon to peptide chemistry.
The use of chemical ligation within the realm of peptide chemistry has opened various opportunities to expand the applications of peptides/proteins in biological sciences. Expansion and refinement of ligation chemistry has made it possible for the entry of peptides into the world of viable oral therapeutic drugs through peptide backbone cyclization. This progression has been a journey of chemic...
