H. Sekizaki et al., TRYPSIN-CATALYZED PEPTIDE-SYNTHESIS WITH VARIOUS P-GUANIDINOPHENYL ESTERS AS ACYL DONORS, Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 44(8), 1996, pp. 1585-1587
Trypsin-catalyzed peptide synthesis has been studied by using p-guanid
inophenyl esters of N-alpha-(tert-butyloxycarbonyl)amino acid and pept
ide as acyl donor components, The reaction conditions were optimized f
or organic solvents, pH, and concentration of acceptor, The method was
especially useful for the preparation of various peptides containing
D-amino acids, The enzymatic hydrolysis of the resulting products was
negligible.
