Sequential peptide ligation strategy becomes more and more important in large protein or long peptides chemical synthesis due to the limited peptide/protein size obtained by solid phase synthesis of individual peptides or even one-step peptide ligation. Herein, we developed an alternative method which could perform the sequential peptide ligation of several segments from N to C direction based on the combined use of thioacid capture ligation and native chemical ligation. The sweet protein monellin was produced through this strategy on a scale of multi-milligrams.

An in-depth study of the Fmoc-based solid phase peptide synthesis of N-Hnb-Cys crypto-thioester peptides, advantageous building blocks for the native chemical ligation-based synthesis of proteins, led to the identification of epimerized and imidazolidinone side products formed during a key reductive amination step. The understanding of the underlying reaction mechanisms was crucial for the developement of an automatable optimized synthetic protocol.

Aspartimide formation often complicates the solid phase synthesis of peptides. Much less discussed is the potential occurrence of this side-reaction during the coupling of peptide segments using chemoselective peptide bond forming reactions such as the native chemical ligation and extended methods. Here we describe how to manage this problem using bis(2-sulfenylethyl)amido (SEA)-mediated ligation and SUMO-2/SUMO-3 as protein targets.<br>

Strategies for one-pot peptide ligation enable chemists to access synthetic proteins at a high yield in a short time. Herein, we report a new one-pot multi-segments ligation strategy using N-terminal thiazolidine (Thz) peptide and a formaldehyde scavenger. Among our designed 2-aminobenzamide-based aldehyde scavengers, 2-amino-5-methoxy-N’,N’-dimethylbenzohydrazide showed a good ability to capture formaldehyde from Thz at pH 4.0. This scavenger had compatibility with the conditions of native chemical ligation at pH 7.5. Using this scavenger for a model peptide ligation system, we performed one-pot four-segment ligation at a high yield without significant side reactions.
