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.

<div><div><div><p>Chemoselective ligation reactions, such as native chemical ligation (NCL), enable the assembly of synthetic peptides into proteins. However, the scope of proteins accessible to total chemical synthesis is limited by ligation efficiency. Sterically hindered thioesters and poorly soluble peptides can undergo incomplete ligations, leading to challenging purifications with low yields. This work describes a new method, ClickAssisted NCL (CAN), which overcomes these barriers. In CAN, peptides are modified with traceless “helping hand” lysine linkers that enable addition of dibenzocyclooctyne (DBCO) and azide handles for strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) reactions. This cycloaddition templates the peptides to increase their effective concentration and greatly accelerate ligation kinetics. After ligation, mild hydroxylamine treatment tracelessly removes the linkers to afford the native ligated peptide. Although DBCO is incompatible with standard Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) due to an acid-mediated rearrangement that occurs during peptide cleavage, we demonstrate that copper(I) protects DBCO from this side reaction, enabling direct production of DBCO-containing synthetic peptides. Excitingly, low concentrations of triazole-linked model peptides reacted ~1,200-fold faster than predicted for non-templated control ligations, which also accumulated many side products due to the long reaction time. Using the E. coli ribosomal subunit L32 as a model protein, we further demonstrate that the SPAAC, ligation, desulfurization, and linker cleavage steps can be performed in a one-pot fashion. CAN will be useful for overcoming ligation challenges to expand the reach of chemical protein synthesis.</p></div></div></div>
