Modular synthesis of supramolecular ureidopyrimidinone-peptide conjugates using an oxime ligation strategy

Chem Commun (Camb). 2012 Feb 1;48(10):1452-4. doi: 10.1039/c1cc14728e. Epub 2011 Oct 18.

Abstract

A convenient method to prepare supramolecular bioconjugates in a facile and scalable manner is by a modular approach, whereby self-assembling units and peptides are coupled using oxime chemistry. We here report syntheses of bioactive ureidopyrimidinone-based peptide conjugates, and their resultant self-assembly into fibrous structures.
