'O-Acyl isopeptide method' for the efficient preparation of amyloid beta peptide 1-42 mutants

Bioorg Med Chem. 2005 Nov 15;13(22):6167-74. doi: 10.1016/j.bmc.2005.06.037.

Abstract

Novel water-soluble isopeptides of Abeta1-42 mutants, '26-O-acyl isoAbeta1-42 (26-AIAbeta42) mutants', which were efficiently converted to intact Abeta1-42 mutants with no byproduct formation under physiological conditions, were synthesized. These isopeptides provide a new system useful for investigating the biological function of Abeta1-42 mutants.
