Design, Synthesis, and Photochemical Validation of Peptide Linchpins Containing the S,S-Tetrazine Phototrigger
文摘
The design, solid-phase synthesis, and photochemical validation of diverse peptide linchpins, containing the S,S-tetrazine phototrigger, have been achieved. Steady state irradiation or femtosecond laser pulses confirm their rapid photofragmentation. Attachment of peptides to the C- and N-termini will provide access to diverse constrained peptide constructs that hold the promise of providing information about early peptide/protein conformational dynamics upon photochemical release.
