Design of a substrate-tailored peptiligase variant for the efficient synthesis of thymosin-α1.

Abstract excerpt

The synthesis of thymosin-α1, an acetylated 28 amino acid long therapeutic peptide, via conventional chemical methods is exceptionally challenging. The enzymatic coupling of unprotected peptide segments in water offers great potential for a more efficient synthesis of peptides that are difficult to synthesize. Based on the design of a highly engineered peptide ligase, we developed a fully convergent...
