Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We report the synthesis of a cyclic analogue of epidermal growth factor sequence 33-42 with substitution of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid for glycine at position 39 (N-acetyl-Cys-Val-Ile-Gly-Tyr-Ser-ACPCA-Asp-Arg-Cys-NH2). The analogue was synthesised by solid-phase methods, using t-Boc chemistry and acid-labile side-chain protecting groups. The use of the 4-methoxybenzyl protecting group for C- and N-terminal cysteine residues resulted in the spontaneous formation of the desired intramolecular disulfide bond after HF deprotection.
