Ribosomal synthesis of dehydrobutyrine- and methyllanthionine-containing peptides.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report here the ribosomal synthesis of methyllanthionine-containing cyclic peptides involving a site-specific incorporation of vinylglycine under the reprogrammed genetic code, followed by the isomerization of the vinylglycine to dehydrobutyrine, and the subsequent intramolecular Michael addition of a cysteine residue placed at a downstream position of the vinylglycine.

Mechanistic Understanding of Lanthipeptide Biosynthetic Enzymes
Lanthipeptides are ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) that display a wide variety of biological activities, from antimicrobial to antiallodynic. Lanthipeptides that display antimicrobial activity are called lantibiotics. The post-translational modification reactions of lanthipeptides include dehydration of Ser and Thr residues to dehydroalanine and dehydr...
متن کاملChemical Synthesis and Biological Activity of Analogues of the Lantibiotic Epilancin 15X
Lantibiotics are a large family of antibacterial peptide natural products containing multiple post-translational modifications, including the thioether structures lanthionine and methyllanthionine. Efforts to probe structure-activity relationships and engineer improved pharmacological properties have driven the development of new methods to produce non-natural analogues of these compounds. In t...

T he amalgamation of conformationally restricted, nonprotein amino acids by chemical synthesis has led to triumphant designs of secondary and super secondary structures that mimic proteins. In this regard, the incorporation of a,b-dehydroresidues in peptide sequences comes in useful. Till about two decades back, this field of research received little attention. However, with the isolation of ma...

A novel series of indole and quinoline tricarboxamides were synthesized using simple and efficient one-pot pseudo-five-component reactions of 2-formylindole or 2-chloro-3-formyl quinolines, isocyanides, amines, and Meldrum’s acid as a CH-acid in CH2Cl2 at room temperature. This conversion has been achieved via the construction of new bonds including two C-C bonds, two ...
متن کاملDesign, Synthesis and Labeling of Tripeptide Derivatives with 99mTc as Hypoxia Imaging Agents
Background: Many diseases, including cancer, ischemia and tumors show degrees of tissue hypoxia.Therefore, it is useful to detect tissue hypoxia with compounds that can penetrate and remain in hypoxic cells in order to diagnose cancer at early stages. Peptides with low molecular weight, susceptible to redox environment, with easier penetration into tissues and low antigenic characteristics are ...
