    Preparation of 'side-chain-to-side-chain' cyclic peptides by Allyl and Alloc strategy: Potential for library synthesis

    No full text
    Automated and manual deprotection methods for allyl/allyloxycarbonyl (Allyl/Alloc) were evaluated for the prepn. of side-chain-to-side-chain cyclic peptides. Using a std. Allyl/Alloc deprotection method, a small library of cyclic peptides with lactam bridges (with seven amino acids) was prepd. on an automatic peptide synthesizer. We demonstrate that the Guibe method for removing Allyl/Alloc protecting groups under specific neutral conditions [Pd(PPh3)4/PhSiH3/DCM] can be a useful, efficient and reliable method for prepg. long cyclic peptides on a resin. We have also manually synthesized a cyclic glucagon analog contg. 24 amino acid residues. These results demonstrated that properly controlled palladium-mediated deprotection of Allyl/Alloc protecting groups can be used to prep. cyclic peptides on the resin using an automated peptide synthesizer and cyclic peptides with a long chain

    Structure-Activity Relationships of alpha-MSH Analogues at the Human Melanocortin MC3, MC4, and MC5 Receptors. Discovery of Highly Selective hMC3R, hMC4R, and hMC5R Analogues.

    It has been shown by extensive studies that melanotropin bioactivities are critically dependent on the core or central tetrapeptide sequence, His-Phe-Arg-Trp, and in R-MSH it has been demonstrated further that a reverse-turn type conformation exists at this pharmacophore. To probe the receptor active conformation of the pharmacophore His-Phe-Arg-Trp in ç-MSH, two different series of ç-MSH analogues have been designed and synthesized and their biological activities determined at hMC3R, hMC4R, and hMC5R. The 1st series consists of a cyclic scan using different disulfides or lactam bridges. It was found that cyclization of the native ç-MSH around the highly conserved sequence can lead to shifts in affinity and selectivity for hMC4R instead of the hMC3R as seen in the native peptide. Furthermore, a 23-membered ring is desirable for potency (e.g., analogues 6 and 10) whereas a 26-membered ring (analogue 1, H-Tyr- Val-c[Cys-Gly-His-Phe-Arg-Trp-Cys]-Arg-Phe-Gly-NH2 with Gly4) is more important for selectivity. The 2nd series is made of D-2-naphthylalanine (D-Nal(2¢)) scan of the ç-MSH sequence at position 6 and 8 and the replacement of His5 with Pro (analogue 13). Analogue 12, H-Tyr-Val- Nle-Gly-His-Phe-Arg-D-Nal(2¢)-Asp-Arg-Phe-Gly-NH2, is a potent and selective antagonist at the hMC4R, and analogue 15, H-Tyr-Val-Nle-Gly-Aib-Phe-Arg-D-Nal(2¢)-Asp-Arg-Phe-Gly-NH2, is a highly selective and potent agonist of the hMC5R. A most promising analogue is 13, H-Tyr- Val-Nle-Gly-Pro-D-Nal(2¢)-Arg-Trp-Asp-Arg-Phe-Gly-NH2, which is a very potent agonist of the hMC4R, and this analogue can be further evaluated for feeding behavior and the regulation of fat stores

    A 2 h periodic variation in the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1

    No full text
    Spectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1 using the Gran Telescopio Canarias have revealed a ?2 h periodic variability that is present in the three strongest emission lines. We tentatively interpret this variability as due to orbital motion, making it the first indication of the orbital period of Ser X-1. Together with the fact that the emission lines are remarkably narrow, but still resolved, we show that a main-sequence K dwarf together with a canonical 1.4 M? neutron star gives a good description of the system. In this scenario, the most likely place for the emission lines to arise is the accretion disc, instead of a localized region in the binary (such as the irradiated surface or the stream-impact point), and their narrowness is due instead to the low inclination (?10°) of Ser X-1
