Design, Synthesis, and Application of an Optimized Monofluorinated Aliphatic Label for Peptide Studies by Solid-State 19FNMR Spectroscopy
A conformationally restricted monofluorinated [alpha]-amino acid, (3-fluorobicyclo[1.1.1]pentyl)glycine (F-Bpg), was designed as a label for the structural analysis of membrane-bound peptides by solid-state 19F NMR spectroscopy. The compound was synthesized and validated as a 19F label for replacing...

Summary: | A conformationally restricted monofluorinated [alpha]-amino acid, (3-fluorobicyclo[1.1.1]pentyl)glycine (F-Bpg), was designed as a label for the structural analysis of membrane-bound peptides by solid-state 19F NMR spectroscopy. The compound was synthesized and validated as a 19F label for replacing natural aliphatic [alpha]-amino acids. Calculations suggested that F-Bpg is similar to Leu/Ile in terms of size and lipophilicity. The 19F NMR label was incorporated into the membrane-active antimicrobial peptide PGLa and provided information on the structure of the peptide in a lipid bilayer. |
