Abstract

α-Aminooxy pentapeptides were synthesized on solid support by a stepwise monomer assembly in 40-65% purity of crude products, using the phthaloyl protected monomers.

The natural tetrapeptide or α-aminooxy tetrapeptide in Tris-buffered saline (pH 7.4) containing 2% DMSO was incubated with trypsin at 37 °C. The retention time of natural tetrapeptide and α-aminooxy tetrapeptide (22.8 min and 24.1 min, respectively) was determined by analytic RP HPLC with a gradient of 5-95% CH3CN in water (0.1% TFA) over 40 min (flow rate, 1.0 mL/min). The digested Ac-Phe-Lys-OH and H-Phe-Leu-OH were eluted at 15.9 minutes and 17.9 minutes under the same elution conditions described above.
