Synthesis and evaluation of peptidic thrombin inhibitors bearing acid-stable sulfotyrosine analogues

Tyrosine sulfation is an important post-translational modification of peptides and proteins which underpins and modulates many protein-protein interactions. In order to overcome the inherent instability of the native modification, we report the synthesis of two sulfonate analogues and their incorpor...

Description
Summary:Tyrosine sulfation is an important post-translational modification of peptides and proteins which underpins and modulates many protein-protein interactions. In order to overcome the inherent instability of the native modification, we report the synthesis of two sulfonate analogues and their incorporation into two thrombin-inhibiting sulfopeptides. The effective mimicry of these sulfonate analogues for native sulfotyrosine was validated in the context of their thrombin inhibitory activity and binding mode, as determined by X-ray crystallography. We describe the incorporation of two acid-stable mimics of sulfotyrosine into thrombin-inhibiting peptides and assess their activity and binding mode.
