Stereorandomized Oncocins with Preserved Ribosome Binding andAntibacterial Activity

Stereorandomized Oncocins with Preserved Ribosome Binding andAntibacterial Activity

Check out our latest paper Stereorandomized Oncocins with Preserved Ribosome Binding andAntibacterial Activity in Journal of Medicinal Chemistry! Abstract We recently showed that solid-phase peptidesynthesis using racemic amino acids yields stereorandomizedpeptides comprising all possible diastereomers as homogeneous,single-mass products that can be purified by HPLC and thatstereorandomization modulates activity, toxicity,

Optimizing phosphate couplings for dolichyl diphosphochitobiose to enable protein N-glycosylation studies

Optimizing phosphate couplings for dolichyl diphosphochitobiose to enable protein N-glycosylation studies

Check out our latest paper Optimizing phosphate couplings for dolichyl diphosphochitobiose to enable protein N-glycosylation studies in HELVETICA! Abstract Herein we report an optimized synthesis for dolichyl diphosphochitobiose (GlcNAc2-PP-Dol25), a probe useful for biochemical and structural studies ofprotein N-glycosylation in eukaryotic cells. We improved three phosphate coupling steps in terms

Multistep retrosynthesis combining a disconnection aware triple transformer loop with a route penalty score guided tree search

Multistep retrosynthesis combining a disconnection aware triple transformer loop with a route penalty score guided tree search

Check out our latest paper Multistep retrosynthesis combining a disconnection aware triple transformer loop with a route penalty score guided tree search in Chemical Science! Abstract Computer-aided synthesis planning (CASP) aims to automatically learn organic reactivity from literature and perform retrosynthesis of unseen molecules. CASP systems must learn reactions sufficiently
