Sortase A catalyzed ligation of ultra-short peptides leads to inter/intra-molecular transpeptidation to form either linear or cyclic oligomers dependent upon the peptide length. Cyclic peptides were the main products for peptides with more than 15aa. However, for ultra-short (<15aa) peptides, cyclic oligomers became predominant in prolonged reactions. Peptides with 1-3 aminoglycines were equally active but peptide oligomers from peptide containing more than one aminoglycine were prone to hydrolysis.
分选酶A催化的超短肽连接导致分子间/分子内转肽作用,形成线性或环状寡聚物,这取决于肽的长度。对于超过15个氨基酸的肽,环状肽是主要产物。然而,对于超短(<15个氨基酸)肽,在延长反应中环状寡聚物占主导地位。含有1-3个氨基甘氨酸的肽具有同等活性,但含有多个氨基甘氨酸的肽形成的肽寡聚物易于水解。
