摘要
The synthesis and X-ray structure of two diasteriomeric heptapeptides [Ac-Ala-Ala-Ala-(R/S)-Cage-Ala-Ala-Ala-NH2] with a trishomocubane amino acid as a beta-turn scaffold are reported. The amino acid was synthesized as a racemate and two diastereomeric peptides were obtained. The two peptides were separated by preparative high-pressure liquid chromatography and crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were grown for both diasteriomeric peptides. In general, both the peptides satisfy the criteria for beta-turn conformations. Five of the six Ala residues of both cage peptide crystals satisfy the criteria for 3(10)-helix characteristics and the cage amino acid residue satisfied the m-helix classification. These experimental results confirm previous theoretical studies in our laboratory which predicted that the cage moiety would be a strong/active beta-turn inducer.
