Article Title: Oxo-ester mediated native chemical ligation: Concept and applications
Abstract: A direct oxo-ester peptide ligation method has been developed. Through the use of an activated C-terminal para nitrophenyl ester (1), it is possible to achieve direct cysteine ligations (1 + 2 → 4). Peptide substrates incorporating bulky C-terminal amino acids (1) can be accommodated with high reaction efficiency. Copyright © 2008 American Chemical Society.
