Convergent synthesis of proteins using peptide-aminothiazoline

Chem Commun (Camb). 2023 Nov 9;59(90):13510-13513. doi: 10.1039/d3cc04387h.

Abstract

Sequential peptide coupling plays a central role in chemical protein synthesis. This paper describes a new peptide derivative, peptide-aminothiazoline (At), whereof the C-terminus is functionalized with 2-aminothiazoline. Peptide-At streamlined the sequential peptide ligation in a one-pot manner and demonstrated the convergent synthesis of a circular protein and homogeneous glycoproteins.
