Abstract:
Provided herein are methods for synthesis of peptides. In particular, provided herein are methods of synthesis for therapeutic antiviral peptides.
Abstract:
The formation of inactive, insoluble forms of peptide can be minimized or, alternatively, inactive, insoluble forms of peptide compounds, if present, can be converted into more physiologically active, soluble forms by dissolving peptide samples in aqueous base and then acidifying the aqueous mixture to precipitate the peptide in the presence of at least one of a salt and a co-solvent. Preferably, both a salt and co-solvent are present. By carrying out the precipitation relatively rapidly (at least in a first stage of acidifying in which the pH of the alkaline medium is reduced to a pH in the range of 6 to 7.5, after which acidification to a final desired pH, e.g., 3 to 6, can occur more slowly) at relatively low temperature, the dissolution characteristics of the resultant precipitated peptide are even further improved. The process is robust, consistent, and suitable for commercial scale manufacture of peptides.
Abstract:
This invention relates to methods for producing phenyl guanidine salts having pharmacological activity, as well as to the identification and synthesis of compounds useful as intermediates for producing phenyl guanidine salts having pharmacological activity.
Abstract:
Provided are peptide fragments which may be used in a method of producing a synthetic peptide, or a conjugate comprised of the synthetic peptide operatively linked to fatty acid, wherein the method comprises chemically coupling 2 or more peptide fragments together in a process of assembly to produce the synthetic peptide or conjugate.
Abstract:
A generally trapezoidal fin (22) is pivotally fastened to a casing which can receive the entire fin, permitting total retraction of the fin. The casing is formed with at least one notch (42) for selectively positioning the fin relative to the casing. In a preferred embodiment, the fin is operated by a lever member (26) which has a knob (50) at its distal end for use in positioning the fin (22) from above.
