Peptides derivation

FIGURE 5.20 Trypsin is a proteolytic enzyme, or protease, that specifically cleaves only those peptide bonds in which arginine or lysine contributes the carbonyl function. The products of the reaction are a mixture of peptide fragments with C-terminal Arg or Lys residues and a single peptide derived from the polypeptide s C-terminal end. [Pg.135]

Besides sensitive methods for the analysis of proteins, bioinformatics is one of the key components of proteome research. This includes software to monitor and quantify the separation of complex samples, e.g., to analyze 2DE images. Web-based database search engines are available to compare experimentally measured peptide masses or sequence ions of protein digests with theoretical values of peptides derived from protein sequences. Websites for database searching with mass spectrometric data may be found at http //www.expasy.ch/tools, http //prospector.ucsf. edu/ and http //www.matrixscience.com. [Pg.1029]

The method illustrated here does have, however, several excellent features.10 The peptide yields are very good even in the synthesis of asparaginyl and glutaminyl peptides, which are ordinarily very difficult to prepare in reasonable yield. Furthermore, the by-products are all water-soluble and, therefore, easily removed from the product peptide derivative. One recrystallization, even under conditions of almost... [Pg.93]

The magaiitins are a class of hnear, cationic, faciaUy amphipathic and hehcal antibacterial peptides derived from frog skin [51]. The magaiitins exhibit highly selective and potent antimicrobial activity against a broad spectrum of organisms [52, 53]. As these peptides are faciaUy amphipathic, the magainins have a cationic heli-... [Pg.19]

Lyim and co-workers carried out smdies of the Ap(io 35) peptide - derived from residues 10-35 of the p-amyloid responsible for Alzheimer s disease - which forms fibrils composed of parallel p-sheets [62]. The peptide was compared to its C-terminal PEG-derivatised analogue. TEM experiments showed that both formed fibrils [63] (Fig. 21) but the uranyl acetate stain was not found inside the peptide-PEG fibrils, indicating that PEG was at the outer edge of the fibril.

The first etCCR application has been reported for a partially C— N-labeled phosphotyrosine peptide derived from interleukin-4 receptor ligated to STAT-6 [107] and subsequent studies involve nucleotide cofactors ligated to human recombinant deoxycytidine kinase [108] and epothilone A bound to tubulin [109]. Since etCCR usually involves isotope-labeling schemes for the ligand, its applicability is limited to specific molecular classes. [Pg.234]

A group of peptide derivatives such as peptide arginals and boronic acid peptide derivatives belong to another class of reversible thrombin inhibitors. One such inhibitor is PPACK (D-Phe-Pro-Arg chloromethyl ketone), which functions as a powerful irreversible thrombin inhibitor by alkylating the histidine residue at the catalytic site of thrombin (58). It, however, is unstable in neutral solution, as it undergoes cyclization and inactivation. However, the D-methyl derivative of D-Phe-Pro-Arg-H (D-Mephe-Pro-Arg-H) called efegatran, with a molecular mass of 515 Da, is a stable selective reversible inhibitor of thrombin with a K. of approximately 100 nM. The basic amino terminus in this compound is responsible for promoting the specificity toward thrombin (63). [Pg.150]
