Peptide Synthesis and Modification as a ersatileV Strategy for Probes Construction Abstract Peptide synthesis and modification is a ersatilev chemical biology strategy to construct probes and sensors of a variety of types of biological activity, including protein/protein interactions, protein localization, and proteolysis. In my thesis work, I have made probes for three distinct biological applications. To do so, I have used a combination of solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), native chemical ligation (NCL), protein expression, and S-alkylation to construct probes with desired functional groups, while minimizing the perturbation to the native structure. In the first project, I constructed photo- crosslinking probes to study the difference in protein-protein interactions of N-terminal acetylated (N-ac) histone H4 peptide versus non-acetylated histone H4 peptide. One protein was identified yb Western blot with binding preference to N-Ace histone H4 peptide. In the second separate project, I constructed probes to study the toxicity mechanism of proline/arginine dipeptide PRx from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) associated gene C9ORF72.

    molecules Review Synthesis, Characterization and Evaluation of Peptide Nanostructures for Biomedical Applications Fanny d’Orlyé, Laura Trapiella-Alfonso , Camille Lescot, Marie Pinvidic, Bich-Thuy Doan and Anne Varenne * Chimie ParisTech PSL, CNRS 8060, Institute of Chemistry for Life and Health (i-CLeHS), 75005 Paris, France; [email protected] (F.d.); [email protected] (L.T.-A.); [email protected] (C.L.); [email protected] (M.P.); [email protected] (B.-T.D.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +33-1-8578-4252 Abstract: There is a challenging need for the development of new alternative nanostructures that can allow the coupling and/or encapsulation of therapeutic/diagnostic molecules while reducing their toxicity and improving their circulation and in-vivo targeting. Among the new materials using natural building blocks, peptides have attracted significant interest because of their simple structure, relative chemical and physical stability, diversity of sequences and forms, their easy functionalization with (bio)molecules and the possibility of synthesizing them in large quantities. A number of them have the ability to self-assemble into nanotubes, -spheres, -vesicles or -rods under mild conditions, which opens up new applications in biology and nanomedicine due to their intrinsic biocompatibility and biodegradability as well as their surface chemical reactivity via amino- and carboxyl groups. In order to obtain nanostructures suitable for biomedical applications, the structure, size, shape and surface chemistry of these nanoplatforms must be optimized. These properties depend directly on Citation: d’Orlyé, F.; the nature and sequence of the amino acids that constitute them.

  • And Light-Directed Peptide Microarray Synthesis
    Development of Chip-Based Electrochemically- and Light-Directed Peptide Microarray Synthesis by Pallav Kumar A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved October 2013 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Neal Woodbury, Chair James Allen Stephen Johnston ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY December 2013 ABSTRACT Peptide microarrays may prove to be a powerful tool for proteomics research and clinical diagnosis applications. Fodor et al. and Maurer et al. have shown proof-of- concept methods of light- and electrochemically-directed peptide microarray fabrication on glass and semiconductor microchips respectively. In this work, peptide microarray fabrication based on the abovementioned techniques were optimized. In addition, MALDI mass spectrometry based peptide synthesis characterization on semiconductor microchips was developed and novel applications of a CombiMatrix (CBMX) platform for electrochemically controlled synthesis were explored. We have investigated performance of 2-(2-nitrophenyl)propoxycarbonyl (NPPOC) derivatives as photo-labile protecting group. Specifically, influence of substituents on 4 and 5 positions of phenyl ring of NPPOC group on the rate of photolysis and the yield of the amine was investigated. The results indicated that substituents capable of forming a π-network with the nitro group enhanced the rate of photolysis and yield. Once such properly substituted NPPOC groups were used, the rate of photolysis/yield depended on the nature of protected amino group indicating that a different chemical step during the photocleavage process became the rate limiting step. We also focused on electrochemically-directed parallel synthesis of high-density peptide microarrays using the CBMX technology referred to above which uses electrochemically generated acids to perform patterned chemistry.

Received: 29 December 2012; in revised form: 25 February 2013 / Accepted: 7 March 2013 / Published: 14 March 2013 Abstract: Despite the advances in molecular biology and biochemistry, the prognosis of patients suffering from tumor diseases remains poor. The limited therapeutic success can be explained by the insufficient performance of the common chemotherapeutic drugs that lack the ability to specifically target tumor tissues. Recently peptide radiopharmaceuticals have been developed that enable the concurrent imaging and therapy of tumors expressing a specific target. Here, with a special emphasis on the synthesis of the building blocks required for the complexation of metallic radioisotopes, the requirements to the design and synthesis of radiolabeled peptides for clinical applications are described. Keywords: radionuclides; chelator; prosthetic groups; carrier molecules; peptides; medicinal application; radiopharmaceutical; diagnostic imaging; radiotherapeutics 1. Introduction The incidence of human malignant tumor diseases is still increasing worldwide. Generally, cancer treatment can be performed using one or a combination of the following methods: surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Their side effects limit the efficiency of chemo- and radiotherapeutic agents, but can be avoided and a much more effective therapy is possible if the drugs used have tumor selectivity.

  • Non-Ribosomal Peptide Synthesis
    Non-Ribosomal Peptide Synthesis In contrast to proteins produced by ribosomal synthesis, many small peptide natural products contain not only the common 20 amino acids but also hundreds of different amino acids. These peptidic natural products are assembled by large enzymes, referred to as nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPS). These produce both cyclic and linear polypeptides which can contain non-proteinogenic amino acids. Some examples are: O R R O Typical N N examples: O O R = CH3, H SH O S S -H2OOx. NH N N O O O Non-Ribosomal Peptide Synthesis: Initiation (A) Non-ribosomal peptide bio-synthesis requires A proper assembly and modification of a large multienzyme complexes including the addition of the prosthetic moiety 4'-phosphopantetheinyl cofactor (ppan) to a conserved serine residue of chain of peptidyl carrier protein (PCP). (B) The first step of peptide assembly is similar to ribosomal protein synthesis: an amino acid is B activated by trans-esterification with ATP to afford the corresponding aminoacyl-adenylate. The domains A1 and A2 each bind to a specific amino acid through non-covalent interactions and catalyze the trans-esterification to produce each aminoacyl- adenylate. “A” = adenylation domain. (C) Domain A also catalyzes the transfer of each C aminoacyl-adenylate onto the free thiol group of PCP- ppan within its module. This establishes a covalent linkage between enzyme and substrate. At this stage the substrate can undergo modifications such as epimerization or N-methylation by neighboring editing or “E” domains. Non-Ribosomal Peptide Synthesis: Elongation (D) Assembly of the product occurs by a series of D peptide bond formation steps (elongation) between the downstream building block with its free amine and the carboxy-thioester of the upstream substrate.
