Stabilization of Collagen-Model, Triple-Helical Peptides for In Vitro and In Vivo Applications

Abstract: The triple-helical structure of collagen has been accurately reproduced in numerous chemical and recombinant model systems. Triple-helical peptides and proteins have found application for dissecting collagen-stabilizing forces, isolating receptor- and protein-binding sites in collagen, mechanistic examination of collagenolytic proteases, and development of novel biomaterials. Introduction of native-like sequences into triple-helical constructs can reduce the thermal stability of the triple-helix to below that … Show more

“…To efficiently incorporate Flp and mep into a peptide sequence, convenient synthetic routes for the preparation of Fmoc-Flp (Figure 1, 4 ) and Fmoc-mep (Figure 1, 5 ) were required. We recently reported a convenient synthetic route for the preparation of Fmoc-Flp from readily available, inexpensive trans -(4 R )-hydroxy- l -proline 96. The fluorination step was modified herein.…”

“…The Mca fluorophore/Dnp quencher pair is widely used in protease research, and both Mca and Dnp are commercially available as Fmoc-Lys-modified building blocks. Designed substrates had four Gly-Pro-Hyp tripeptide units on both sides of the putative cleavage site sequence, as Gly-Pro-Hyp repeating tripeptides stabilize the triple-helix [26]. …”
