Chemical Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Unusual Sulfur-Containing Peptides and Efforts Toward Chemical Synthesis of Crocin
DownloadFall 2012
In order to minimize side reactions when preparing peptides containing a C-terminal cysteine residue, a method of protection of the carboxyl of the C-terminal cysteine as a cyclic ortho ester was developed. N-Fmoc-S-StBu cysteine cyclic ortho esters 31 (L) and 32 (D) were synthesized with...

Thuricin CD, a two-component bacteriocin produced by Bacillus thuringiensis DPC 6431, exhibits potent activity against the hospital superbug Clostridium difficile ribotype O27. The two peptides (Trn-α and Trn-β) that constitute thuricin CD operate synergistically to kill sensitive bacteria at...
