蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用（质子泵抑制剂）起到最生物过程的关键作用，从细胞内的信号转导至细胞死亡1。因此，针对生产者价格指数是具有根本的重要性，以基础研究和治疗应用。质子泵抑制剂可以通过特定的和稳定的抗体来调节，但抗体是昂贵的并且难以制造，并且具有生物利用度差。另外，质子泵抑制剂可通过小分子靶向。小分子更容易合成和廉价相比抗体;然而，它们是相对不灵活和更适合于细孔比大的蛋白质-蛋白质界面2,3。多样的研究表明，肽，它们比抗体简单和更便宜，比小分子更加灵活，可以结合蛋白接口和调节质子泵抑制剂4,5。全球治疗肽市场总值约1,500十亿美元在2013年增长10.5％禾LLY 6。此外，有50多个市售的肽，周围270肽在临床试验的不同阶段，和大约400肽在先进的临床前阶段7。尽管众多的肽被用作药物，肽仍然构成限制其广泛的应用，包括生物利用度差和稳定性，低效率在交叉细胞膜，和构象柔性8,9-几个挑战。一个替代方案克服这些缺点是应用不同的修改，例如本地（D-氨基酸和N-烷基化）和全局（环化）约束8,10-12。这些修改也自然出现。例如，环孢菌素A，免疫抑制剂的环肽天然，包含一个单一的D-氨基酸和经历N-烷基化修饰13,14。 修饰的天然氨基酸以诱导本地约束，如D-和N-烷基化，通常会影响所述肽9氏生物活性。然而，环化，其中感兴趣的序列可以保持不变，是更可能保留生物活性。环化是一个非常有吸引力的方式通过减少不同的构象之间的平衡，以限制肽构象的空间。它通常通过限制肽与活性构象，其介导只有一个函数增加生物活性和选择性。环化也通过保持肽在较少受到降解酶识别的构象提高肽的稳定性。事实上，环肽均表现相比相应的线性15-17具有改善的代谢稳定性，生物利用度，和选择性。 然而，环化可以是一把双刃剑，因为在某些情况下，限制可能阻止肽从达到的生物活性构象。为了克服这一障碍，集中库中的所有肽具有相同的主sequencË因此不断的药效可以合成。在库中的肽的不同在于，影响其结构参数，如环的大小和位置，以便随后筛选最生物活性的构象9,18。 肽可以既在溶液中并通过固相肽合成（SPPS）的方式，也就是现在的更普遍的肽合成方法，并将进一步讨论的合成。 SPPS是通过该化学转化通过接头连接在固体载体上进行，以制备多种合成化合物19的方法。 SPPS使组装肽由氨基酸连续耦合在从C末端，其连接到一个固体支持物以逐步的方式，以N-末端。的N-α-氨基酸侧链必须与保护是稳定在期间延伸肽使用的反应条件组，以确保在加入每ST一个氨基酸被掩蔽EP。在最后的步骤中，将肽从树脂释放，侧链保护基团伴随除去。而该肽被合成，所有的可溶性试剂可以通过过滤从肽 - 固体载体基质被移除，并在每个偶联步骤的末尾冲走。有了这样的系统，在高浓度的大过量的试剂可以驱动偶合反应至完成，所有的合成步骤可以在同一个容器中无材料 20的任何传输来执行。 虽然SPPS具有如生产不完全反应，副反应，不纯的试剂，以及困难监测反应21的一些局限，SPPS的优点已经使它的"金标准"的肽合成。这些优点包括选项掺入非天然氨基酸，自动化，容易纯化，最小化物理损失，以及使用过量的试剂，导致高收益。 SPPS已被证明是在困难的序列21,22，荧光修饰23，和肽文库24,25的合成极为有用。 SPPS也是其他聚链组件，例如寡核苷酸26,27，寡糖28,29，和肽核酸30,31非常有用的。有趣的是，在某些情况下，SPPS被证明是有利的，用于合成被在溶液32,33传统上制成的小分子。 SPPS可以用在小规模的研究和教学34,35以及大规模产业36-38。 这主要应用于SPPS方法为肽合成两种合成策略是氧羰基（BOC）和9-芴基（Fmoc）。引入SPPS原始策略是Boc时，这需要强酸条件从第r除去侧链保护基团和裂解肽ESIN。将Fmoc-基于肽合成，不过，使用中等强度的碱的条件，是对酸不稳定的Boc协议39较温和的替代方案。将Fmoc策略利用了设置在合成的最后步骤中除去而裂解从在酸性条件下的树脂肽正交叔丁基（TBU）侧链保护。 对于在固体载体上的肽合成的一般原则是在图1的初始氨基酸，通过在N-α-末端的临时保护基团掩盖，被装载到从C末端的树脂。甲半永久性保护基掩蔽侧链还用于在必要时（图1，步骤1）。靶肽的合成是从C末端组装到N末端 ​​的N-α-临时保护基的脱保护的重复循环（图1，步骤2）和耦合下一保护的氨基酸（图1 </str<html>翁&gt;，步骤3）。后最后一个氨基酸被加载（图1，步骤4），将肽从树脂载体切下并半永久性保护基团被除去（图1，步骤5）。 <img alt="图1" src="/files/ftp_upload/53589/53589fig1.jpg" /> 的固相肽合成图 1.常规 方案的 N-α-保护的氨基酸通过接头与树脂（步骤1）使用羧基锚定。所需的肽组装在从C末端到N末端通过从N-α（步骤2）和氨基酸耦合（步骤3）的临时保护基团（TPG）的脱保护的重复循环以线性方式。完成的合成（步骤4）后，将半永久性保护基（SPG）的过程中肽裂解（步骤5）去保护。获得="_空白"&gt;点击此处查看该图的放大版本。 完整的肽链的组装后，环化可以通过多种替代来实现:（A）的头-尾环化-这是一种方便的方式，但不限于，因为它仅提供一个用于环化（图2A）的选项，（B）的环化使用来自感兴趣序列中的氨基酸，包含生物活性官能团的-然而，使用这些氨基酸可通过，而不会干扰增加的氨基酸（或其他构件块）的影响的生物活性（图2B），和（C）环化生物活性序列。引入这些分子是普遍，因为它允许生产集中的库，而无需修改的兴趣（图2C）的序列。 <img alt="图2" src="/files/ftp_upload/53589/53589fig2.jpg" /> Figure 2. 可替代的肽环化法 （A）的头至尾环化，通过C末端和N末端 ​​之间的肽键。官能团之间（B）的环化，如半胱氨酸残基（1），或赖氨酸的侧链之间形成酰胺键之间的二硫键来天冬氨酸/谷氨酸（2），或侧链为N-或C-末端（3 -4）; （C）环化通过增加额外的氨基酸或氨基酸衍生物或小分子，例如前（R0）和（R7）的生物活性序列之后， <a href="https://www.jove.com/files/ftp_upload/53589/53589fig2large.jpg" target="_blank">请点击此处查看该图的放大版本。</a> 微波辅助合成采用微波辐射加热反应，从而加速有机化工转化40,41。微波化学是基于试剂/能力溶剂吸收所微波能量并将其转换成热42。前的技 ​​术变得普遍，主要缺点必须克服，包括可控性和合成协议再现性和缺乏可用的系统为适当的温度和压力控制的43,44。做使用厨房微波合成几个短肽（7-10个氨基酸）与显著提高耦合效率和纯度45的微波辅助肽合成的第一份报告。此外，微波能量被证明减少链聚集，降低副反应，限制了外消旋化，并提高连接速度，这是所有艰难和漫长的序列46-53的关键。 目前在固体载体上使用微波照射于肽或相关化合物的合成中是广泛的，包括（A）中合成的有机溶剂54的水代替; （B）的合成肽的同常见的翻译后修饰，如糖 ​​肽55-58或59-61磷酸，其合成通常是困难的，因为位阻氨基酸衍生物的低耦合效率; （C）的合成与修饰肽主链，如azapeptides，其可以由替换的氨基酸残基的C（α）与氮原子62，或拟肽，其侧链连接到被形成的酰胺氮而非Cα原子63,64; （d）合成环肽65-71的;和（E）的合成组合库51,72中。在许多情况下，作者报告更高的效率和降低的合成时间使用微波辐射相比于常规协议。 用合理的设计73-75，我们开发均来自支架大号 eishmania的受体FO抗寄生虫肽- [R激活C-激酶（LACK）。拉克起着利什曼原虫属感染76的早期阶段发挥重要作用。寄生虫表达缺乏较低水平不缺乏参与必不可少的寄生虫信号传导过程和蛋白质的合成78寄生甚至免疫缺陷小鼠77。因此，缺乏的是一个关键的支架蛋白79和宝贵的药物靶点。重点放在中保守的寄生虫，但不是在宿主哺乳动物同系物的RACK在拉克序列，我们确定了一个8个氨基酸的肽（RNGQCQRK），在培养降低利什曼原虫属的生存能力。 在这里，我们描述了一种协议，用于从上述的LACK蛋白序列衍生骨架的环肽的合成。合成使用微波加热通过SPPS方法用Fmoc / TBU协议的坚实支持的肽。肽是通过酰胺键缀合到一个TAT 47-57（YGRKKRRQRRR）载体肽在SPPS的一部分。的各种货物到细胞中的TAT-基于运输已经使用了超过15年，并输送货物到亚细胞器已经证实80。四种不同的接头，琥珀酸和戊二酸酐以及己二酸和庚二酸，被用来进行环化，以​​产生二至五个碳原子的羧酸的接头。已完成的环化利用微波能量，和没有微波能量被手动完成的最终裂解和侧链去保护步骤。使用一个自动化微波合成器中的改进的产品纯度，增加了产品的产量，并降低了合成的持续时间。这是一般的协议可以被应用到利用肽理解重要的分子机制在体外和体内 ，并进一步发展潜力的药物用于人类疾病的其他研究。

Preparation of Silica Nanoparticles Through Microwave-assisted Acid-catalysis

Microwave-assisted synthetic techniques were used to quickly and reproducibly produce silica nanoparticle sols using an acid catalyst with nanoparticle diameters ranging from 30-250 nm by varying the reaction conditions. Through the selection of a microwave compatible solvent, silicic acid precursor, catalyst, and microwave irradiation time, these microwave-assisted methods were capable of overcoming the previously reported shortcomings associated with synthesis of silica nanoparticles using microwave reactors. The siloxane precursor was hydrolyzed using the acid catalyst, HCl. Acetone, a low-tan &#948; solvent, mediates the condensation reactions and has minimal interaction with the electromagnetic field. Condensation reactions begin when the silicic acid precursor couples with the microwave radiation, leading to silica nanoparticle sol formation. The silica nanoparticles were characterized by dynamic light scattering data and scanning electron microscopy, which show the materials&#39; morphology and size to be dependent on the reaction conditions. Microwave-assisted reactions produce silica nanoparticles with roughened textured surfaces that are atypical for silica sols produced by St&#246;ber&#39;s methods, which have smooth surfaces.

Silica nanoparticles were prepared using acid-catalysis of a siloxane precursor and microwave-assisted synthetic techniques resulting in the controlled growth of nanomaterials ranging from 30-250 nm in diameter. The growth dynamics can be controlled by varying the initial silicic acid concentration, time of the reaction, and temperature of reaction.

Split-and-pool Synthesis and Characterization of Peptide Tertiary Amide Library

Peptidomimetics are great sources of protein ligands. The oligomeric nature of these compounds enables us to access large synthetic libraries on solid phase by using combinatorial chemistry. One of the most well studied classes of peptidomimetics is peptoids. Peptoids are easy to synthesize and have been shown to be proteolysis-resistant and cell-permeable. Over the past decade, many useful protein ligands have been identified through screening of peptoid libraries. However, most of the ligands identified from peptoid libraries do not display high affinity, with rare exceptions. This may be due, in part, to the lack of chiral centers and conformational constraints in peptoid molecules. Recently, we described a new synthetic route to access peptide tertiary amides (PTAs). PTAs are a superfamily of peptidomimetics that include but are not limited to peptides, peptoids and N-methylated peptides. With side chains on both &#945;-carbon and main chain nitrogen atoms, the conformation of these molecules are greatly constrained by sterical hindrance and allylic 1,3 strain. (Figure 1) Our study suggests that these PTA molecules are highly structured in solution and can be used to identify protein ligands. We believe that these molecules can be a future source of high-affinity protein ligands. Here we describe the synthetic method combining the power of both split-and-pool and sub-monomer strategies to synthesize a sample one-bead one-compound (OBOC) library of PTAs.

By using inline monitoring, it is possible to optimize reactions performed using continuous-flow processing in a simple and rapid way. It is also possible to ensure consistent product quality over time using this technique. We here show how to interface a commercially available flow unit with a Raman spectrometer. The Raman flow cell is placed after the back-pressure regulator, meaning that it can be operated at atmospheric pressure. In addition, the fact that the product stream passes through a length of tubing before entering the flow cell means that the material is at RT. It is important that the spectra are acquired under isothermal conditions since Raman signal intensity is temperature dependent. Having assembled the apparatus, we then show how to monitor a chemical reaction, the piperidine-catalyzed synthesis of 3-acetylcoumarin from salicylaldehyde and ethyl acetoacetate being used as an example. The reaction can be performed over a range of flow rates and temperatures, the in-situ monitoring tool being used to optimize conditions simply and easily.

Real-time monitoring allows for fast optimization of reactions performed using continuous-flow processing. Here the preparation of 3-acetylcoumarin is used as an example. The apparatus for performing in-situ Raman monitoring is described, as are the steps required to optimize the reaction.

Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization of Functionalized Vinyl Monomers Using Perylene as a Visible Light Photocatalyst

A standardized technique for atom transfer radical polymerization of vinyl monomers using perylene as a visible-light photocatalyst is presented. The procedure is performed under an inert atmosphere using air- and water-exclusion techniques. The outcome of the polymerization is affected by the ratios of monomer, initiator, and catalyst used as well as the reaction concentration, solvent, and nature of the light source. Temporal control over the polymerization can be exercised by turning the visible light source off and on. Low dispersities of the resultant polymers as well as the ability to chain-extend to form block copolymers suggest control over the polymerization, while chain end-group analysis provides evidence supporting an atom-transfer radical polymerization mechanism.

A method for the atom transfer radical polymerization of functionalized vinyl monomers using perylene as a visible-light photocatalyst is described.

Peptide and Protein Quantification Using Automated Immuno-MALDI (iMALDI)

Mass spectrometry (MS) is one of the most commonly used technologies for quantifying proteins in complex samples, with excellent assay specificity as a result of the direct detection of the mass-to-charge ratio of each target molecule. However, MS-based proteomics, like most other analytical techniques, has a bias towards measuring high-abundance analytes, so it is challenging to achieve detection limits of low ng/mL or pg/mL in complex samples, and this is the concentration range for many disease-relevant proteins in biofluids such as human plasma. To assist in the detection of low-abundance analytes, immuno-enrichment has been integrated into the assay to concentrate and purify the analyte before MS measurement, significantly improving assay sensitivity. In this work, the immuno- Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization (iMALDI) technology is presented for the quantification of proteins and peptides in biofluids, based on immuno-enrichment on beads, followed by MALDI-MS measurement without prior elution. The anti-peptide antibodies are functionalized on magnetic beads, and incubated with samples. After washing, the beads are directly transferred onto a MALDI target plate, and the signals are measured by a MALDI-Time of Flight (MALDI-TOF) instrument after the matrix solution has been applied to the beads. The sample preparation procedure is simplified compared to other immuno-MS assays, and the MALDI measurement is fast. The whole sample preparation is automated with a liquid handling system, with improved assay reproducibility and higher throughput. In this article, the iMALDI assay is used for determining the peptide angiotensin I (Ang I) concentration in plasma, which is used clinically as readout of plasma renin activity for the screening of primary aldosteronism (PA).

Failure of Cleaning Verification in Pharmaceutical Industry Due to Uncleanliness of Stainless Steel Surface

The aim of this work is to identify the parameters that affect the recovery of pharmaceutical residues from the surface of stainless steel coupons. A series of factors were assessed, including drug product spike levels, spiking procedure, drug-excipient ratios, analyst-to-analyst variability, intraday variability, and cleaning procedure of the coupons. The lack of a well-defined procedure that consistently cleaned the coupon surface was identified as the major contributor to low and variable recoveries. Assessment of cleaning the surface of the coupons with clean-in-place solutions (CIP) gave high recovery (&#62;90%) and reproducible results (Srel&#8804;4%) regardless of the conditions that were assessed previously. The approach was successfully applied for cleaning verification of small molecules (MW &#60;1,000 Da) as well as large biomolecules (MW up to 50,000 Da).

The lack of a well-defined procedure that consistently cleaned coupon surfaces was identified as the major contributor to low and variable recoveries in cleaning verification. This manuscript describes the correct protocol of cleaning stainless steel coupons.

One-pot Microwave-assisted Conversion of Anomeric Nitrate-esters to Trichloroacetimidates

The goal of the following procedure is to provide a demonstration of the one-pot conversion of a 2-azido-1-nitrate-ester to a trichloroacetimidate glycosyl donor. Following azido-nitration of a glycal, the product 2-azido-1-nitrate ester can be hydrolyzed under microwave-assisted irradiation. This transformation is usually achieved using strongly nucleophilic reagents and extended reaction times. Microwave irradiation induces hydrolysis, in the absence of reagents, with short reaction times. Following denitration, the intermediate anomeric alcohol is converted, in the same pot, to the corresponding 2-azido-1-trichloroacetimidate.

A 2-azido-1-nitrate-ester can be converted to the corresponding 2-azido-1-trichloroacetimidate in a one-pot procedure. The goal of the manuscript is to demonstrate utility of the microwave reactor in carbohydrate synthesis.

Using Cyclic Voltammetry, UV-Vis-NIR, and EPR Spectroelectrochemistry to Analyze Organic Compounds

Cyclic voltammetry (CV) is a technique used in the analysis of organic compounds. When this technique is combined with electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) or ultraviolet-visible and near-infrared (UV-Vis-NIR) spectroscopies, we obtain useful information such as electron affinity, ionization potential, band-gap energies, the type of charge carriers, and degradation information that can be used to synthesize stable organic electronic devices. In this study, we present electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical methods to analyze the processes occurring in active layers of an organic device as well as the generated charge carriers.

In this article, we describe electrochemical, electron paramagnetic resonance, and ultraviolet-visible and near-infrared spectroelectrochemical methods to analyze organic compounds for application in organic electronics.

A Microwave-Assisted Direct Heteroarylation of Ketones Using Transition Metal Catalysis

Heteroarylation introduces heteroaryl fragments to organic molecules. Despite the numerous available reactions reported for arylation via transition metal catalysis, the literature on direct heteroarylation is scarce. The presence of heteroatoms such as nitrogen, sulfur and oxygen often make heteroarylation a challenging research field due to catalyst poisoning, product decomposition and the rest. This protocol details a highly efficient direct &#945;-C(sp3) heteroarylation of ketones under microwave irradiation. Key factors for successful heteroarylation include the use of XPhos Palladacycle Gen. 4 Catalyst, excess base to suppress side reactions and the high temperature and pressure achieved in a sealed reaction vial under microwave irradiation. The heteroarylation compounds prepared by this method were fully characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H NMR), carbon nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (13C NMR) and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). This methodology has several advantages over literature precedents including broad substrate scope, rapid reaction time, greener procedure and operational simplicity by eliminating the preparation of intermediates such as silyl enol ether. Possible applications for this protocol include, but are not limited to, diversity-oriented synthesis for the discovery of biologically active small molecules, domino synthesis for the preparation of natural products and ligand development for new transition metal catalytic systems.

Heteroaryl compounds are important molecules utilized in organic synthesis, medicinal and biological chemistry. A microwave-assisted heteroarylation using palladium catalysis provides a rapid and efficient method to attach heteroaryl moieties directly to ketone substrates.

Using a Cyclic Ion Mobility Spectrometer for Tandem Ion Mobility Experiments

Accurate characterization of chemical structures is important to understand their underlying biological mechanisms and functional properties. Mass spectrometry (MS) is a popular tool but is not always sufficient to completely unveil all structural features. For example, although carbohydrates are biologically relevant, their characterization is complicated by numerous levels of isomerism. Ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) is an interesting complement because it is sensitive to ion conformations and, thus, to isomerism. 
Furthermore, recent advances have significantly improved the technique: the last generation of Cyclic IMS instruments offers additional capabilities compared to linear IMS instruments, such as an increased resolving power or the possibility to perform tandem ion mobility (IMS/IMS) experiments. During IMS/IMS, an ion is selected based on its ion mobility, fragmented, and reanalyzed to obtain ion mobility information about its fragments. Recent work showed that the mobility profiles of the fragments contained in such IMS/IMS data can act as a fingerprint of a particular glycan and can be used in a molecular networking strategy to organize glycomics datasets in a structurally relevant way. 
The goal of this protocol is thus to describe how to generate IMS/IMS data, from sample preparation to the final Collision Cross Section (CCS) calibration of the ion mobility dimension that yields reproducible spectra. Taking the example of one representative glycan, this protocol will show how to build an IMS/IMS control sequence on a Cyclic IMS instrument, how to account for this control sequence to translate IMS arrival time into drift time (i.e., the effective separation time applied to the ions), and how to extract the relevant mobility information from the raw data. This protocol is designed to clearly explain the critical points of an IMS/IMS experiment and thus help new Cyclic IMS users perform straightforward and reproducible acquisitions.

Ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) is an interesting complement to mass spectrometry for the characterization of biomolecules, notably because it is sensitive to isomerism. This protocol describes a tandem IMS (IMS/IMS) experiment, which allows the isolation of a molecule and the generation of the mobility profiles of its fragments.
