Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of a Characteristic Glycophosphopeptide from the Transactivation Domain of the Serum Response Factor

Abstract

Glycopeptides, phosphopeptides, and glycophosphopeptides can be synthesized efficiently by a strategy based on a combination of suitable enzyme-labile protecting groups. Thus, probes for biological studies can be accessed. An example is the glycosylated and phosphorylated heptapeptide 1 from the transactivation domain of the human serum response factor, which contains an additional biotin label for detection with streptavidin.
