Catch-enrich-release approach for amine-containing natural products

Chem Commun (Camb). 2022 Nov 10;58(90):12560-12563. doi: 10.1039/d2cc04905h.

Abstract

Amine-containing natural products are an important class of therapeutic compounds. Herein, we report a chemoselective approach to catch and enrich amine-containing natural products, and release them as underivatized compounds. The strategy exploits the selectivity of the enzyme legumain for the specific release of amine-containing natural products.
