Synthesis and conformational studies of poly(L-lysine) based branched polypeptides with Ser and Glu/Leu in the side
1Research Group of Peptide Chemistry, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, H-1518, Budapest, Hungary.
Abstract:
In a new group of polypeptides, the branches were composed of DL-Ala oligopeptide, L-serine and L-leucine or L-glutamic acid residues. The synthesis of eight different side-chain combinations is described. In the first group, Ser was attached directly to the epsilon-amino groups of polylysine, and Leu or Glu was situated at the side chain end (poly[Lys(X(i)-DL-Ala(m)-Ser(j))]). Alternatively, Leu or Glu was positioned next to the polylysine backbone (poly[Lys(Ser(j)-DL-Ala(m)-X(i))], where X=L-Leu or L-Glu and m approximately 3-6, i
