Article Title: Native chemical ligation at valine: A contribution to peptide and glycopeptide synthesis
Abstract: (Chemical Equation Presented) A Val-uable link: The title transformation is achieved by a two-step ligation, radicalbased desulfurization strategy (see scheme; NCL=native chemical ligation). After S→N acyl transfer, in which the acyl acceptor is a γ-thiol valine derivative, and site-specific dethiolation, a valine residue appears at the site of ligation. This method accomplishes ligations at Thr-Val and Pro-Val sites, and allows successful ligation of glycopeptide fragments. © 2008 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
