Heterodetic bicyclic decapeptide cyclo (Glu1-Leu2-Pro3-Gly4-Ser5-Ile6-Pro7-Ala8) cyclo-(1γ-5β) Phe9-Gly10 : synthesis and 2-D NMR conformational analysis
2009
Bicyclic peptides are useful model molecules that can mimic the constrained local folding of a great number of natural peptides and proteins, such as ionophoric peptides, enzyme active site, and ligand-receptor active site. The synthesis of the bicyclic title compound with the liquid phase method is described with experimental details. Of particular interest is the heterodetic closure of the second ring. The peptide showed a complexing activity with metal cations like Ba 2+ , Ca 2+ , and Mg 2+ . The free bicyclic peptide conformation in solution has been studied by means of NMR spectroscopy and a plausible structure model worked out with model building on NMR constraints is proposed
