Silylated Tag-Assisted Peptide Synthesis: Continuous One-Pot Elongation for the Production of Difficult Peptides under Environmentally Friendly Conditions

Abstract

Addition of the silylated tag (STag) enables peptides to be highly soluble in CPME, allowing them to be used at high concentrations in a coupling reaction to enhance reactivity and achieve effective synthesis of sterically hindered peptides. We described the development of a continuous one-pot STag-assisted peptide synthesis platform as a method that provides near-stoichiometric, speedy, environmentally friendly, and scalable peptide synthesis.
