Fmoc Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis


Book Description

Since the publication of Atherton and Sheppard's volume, the technique of Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis has matured considerably and is now the standard approach for the routine production of peptides. The focus of this new volume is much broader, and covers the essential procedures.




Solid-Phase Synthesis


Book Description

This volume provides the information needed to synthesize peptides by solid-phase synthesis (SPS) - employing polymeric support (resins), anchoring linkages (handles), coupling reagents (activators), and protection schemes. It presents strategies for creating a wide variety of compounds for drug discovery and analyzes peptides, DNA, carbohydrates,




Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis


Book Description

As thousands of individuals worldwide become involved with the study of peptides, and the demand for synthetic peptides rapidly increases, so too does the need for a practical, single-volume treatment of this growing field. This title is the first published account of an approach which has quickly been accepted as the industry standard. Written by the originators of this popular new method, the book provides readers with convenient, coverage of the practical considerations affecting solid phase peptide synthesis, and will be of great interest to students and researchers alike.




Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis


Book Description

The critically acclaimed laboratory standard for more than forty years, Methods in Enzymology is one of the most highly respected publications in the field of biochemistry. Since 1955, each volumehas been eagerly awaited, frequently consulted, and praised by researchers and reviewers alike. More than 275 volumes have been published (all of them still in print) and much of the material is relevant even today-truly an essential publication for researchers in all fields of life sciences. Key Features * Solid-phase peptide synthesis * Applications of peptides for structural and biological studies * Characterization of synthetic peptides







Chemical Approaches to the Synthesis of Peptides and Proteins


Book Description

Organic chemists working on the synthesis of natural products have long found a special challenge in the preparation of peptides and proteins. However, more reliable, more efficient synthetic preparation methods have been developed in recent years. This reference evaluates the most important synthesis methods available today, and also considers methods that show promise for future applications. This text describes the state of the art in efficient synthetic methods for the synthesis of both natural and artificial large peptide and protein molecules. Subjects include an introduction to basic topics, linear solid-phase synthesis of peptides, peptide synthesis in solution, convergent solid-phase synthesis, methods for the synthesis of branched peptides, formation of disulfide bridges, and more. The book emphasizes strategies and tactics that must be considered for the successful synthesis of peptides.







Methods of Non-a-Amino Acid Synthesis


Book Description

Although less common than a-amino acids, non-a-amino acids-where the amino group is not on the carbon immediately adjacent to the carboxyl group but is attached to another carbon in the chain (for example, the , d carbon)-are components of biologically important molecules, are significant in the pharmaceutical industry, and are useful starting ma
