Chemoselective fragment condensation between peptide and peptidomimetic oligomers

Abstract

We report the first example of chemoselective fragment condensation, through native amide bond formation, between peptoid and peptide oligomers. Peptoid oligomers bearing C-terminal salicylaldehyde esters were synthesized and ligated to peptides containing N-terminal serine or threonine residues. We investigate the ligation efficiency of peptoid oligomers varying in length, sequence, and C-terminal steric bulk. These protocols enhance accessibility of structurally complex peptoid–peptide hybrids and will facilitate the design new semi-synthetic proteins with unique attributes.
