摘要:Synthesis of peptides R1-A-B-C-D-E-R2 wherein A, B, C, D and E represent amino acid residues coupled with peptide bonds and A is a omega -amino-or omega -guanidino substituted basic L- or D-amino acid residue or a desamino derivative thereof, B is a omega -amino- or omega -guanidino substituted basic L-amino acid residue, L-Pro or L-dehydroPro, preferably Asp or Glu, C is an acidic L- or D-amino acid residue, preferably Asp or Glu, D is an unpolar, hydrophobic aliphatic or aromatic aryl- or aralkyl group containing L-amino acid residue, preferably Val, Ile or Leu, E is an unpolar, hydrophobic aliphatic or aromatic aryl- or aralkyl group containing L- or D-amino acid residue or a decarboxy derivative thereof, preferably Tyr, Trp, Phe, His or Val, R1 is H or an alpha -amino substituting group, and R2 is OH or an alpha -carboxy substituting group, by sequential coupling of reactive derivatives of said amino acids and/or by fragment coupling of reactive oligopeptide derivatives on the basis of said amino acids. At least one of these coupling reactions is carried out in a completely or partly aqueous medium at pH 3-12, in the presence of a proteolytic enzyme capable of catalyzing the formation of a peptide which, if desired, is coupled with a reactive amino acid derivative or peptide derivative in the presence of the same or another proteolytic enzyme, further enzymatic or chemical coupling reactions being carried out, if necessary. The process, which is particularly suited for synthesizing the immunomodulating pentapeptides thymopentin and spleninopentin and their analogues, comprises several coupling strategies, the preferred enzymes for use in these strategies i.a. including thermolysin, trypsin, subtilisin, carboxypeptidase Y, elastase and bromelain. The process i.a. uses the intermediates Z1ABOR, Z1ABC(OR min )(OR sec ) and Z1ABC(OR)OH, wherein Z1 has the same meaning as R1, and R is alkyl or benzyl.
