Systematic modification of the backbone of bioactive polypeptides through β-amino acid residue incorporation could provide a strategy for generating molecules with improved drug properties, but such alterations can result in lower receptor affinity and potency. Using an agonist of parathyroid hormone receptor-1 (PTHR1), a G protein-coupled receptor in the B-family, we present an approach for α→β residue replacement that enables both high activity and improved pharmacokinetic properties in vivo.
通过在生物活性多肽骨架中引入β-氨基酸残基进行系统修饰,可以为生成具有改善的药物性质的分子提供一种策略,但这种改变可能导致受体亲和力和效力降低。我们使用甲状旁腺激素受体 1(PTHR1)的激动剂,即 B 族 G 蛋白偶联受体,提出了一种α→β残基替换的方法,使体内具有高活性和改善的药代动力学性质。
