We report a new method herein coined SP-CLipPA (solid-phase cysteine lipidation of a peptide or amino acid) for the synthesis of mono-S-lipidated peptides. This technique utilizes thiol-ene chemistry for conjugation of a vinyl ester to a free thiol of a semiprotected, resin-bound peptide. Advantages of SP-CLipPA include: ease of handling, conversions of up to 91 %, by-product removal by simple filtration, and a single purification step. Additionally, the desired lipidated products show high chromatographic separation from impurities, thus facilitating RP-HPLC purification. To showcase the utility of SP-CLipPA, we synthesized a potent calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonist peptide in excellent yield and purity. This peptide, selected from a series of lipidated analogues of CGRP and CGRP , has potential for the treatment of migraine.
我们在此报告一种新方法,称为 SP-CLipPA(肽或氨基酸的固相半胱氨酸脂化),用于合成单脂肽。该技术利用硫醇-烯反应将乙烯酯与半保护的树脂结合的肽的游离巯基连接。SP-CLipPA 的优点包括:易于处理、转化率高达 91%、通过简单过滤去除副产物以及单一的纯化步骤。此外,所需的脂化产物与杂质有很好的色谱分离,因此有利于反相高效液相色谱纯化。为了展示 SP-CLipPA 的实用性,我们以优异的收率和纯度合成了一种有效的降钙素基因相关肽(CGRP)受体拮抗剂肽。该肽是从一系列 CGRP 和 CGRP 的脂化类似物中筛选出来的,具有治疗偏头痛的潜力。
