Description

Preparation method of oligopeptide cyclic peptide
The present application claims priority from China, application number 202110851741.0, application day 2021, 7, 27; all of which are included as part of the present invention.
Technical Field
The invention relates to the fields of biomedical technology and personal care, in particular to a preparation method of oligopeptide cyclopeptides.
Background
The linear peptide has good biological activity and stability in vitro, but the activity disappears soon after entering the body. Because of the complex in vivo environment, a wide variety of enzymes exist. The linear peptide is easily degraded and metabolized under the action of enzymes, and then loses activity. In order to obtain polypeptides with good biological activity, long half-life and higher receptor selectivity, many methods for modification of polypeptides have been reported in the literature, including modification of linear peptides to cyclic peptides. The macrocyclic molecule has a definite fixed conformation, can better fit with a receptor, and has greatly reduced sensitivity to aminopeptidases and carboxypeptidases. The metabolic stability and bioavailability of cyclic peptides are thus far higher than those of linear peptides.
Cyclic peptides are classified according to the ring closure scheme into Head-to-tail, side-chain and side-chain-to-side, side-chain and end-chain-to-end, disulfide-bridge-containing cyclic peptides (disulid e-bridge), staple peptides (Stapled peptides), and cyclic peptides containing other bridging structures. In terms of the synthesis method, the synthesis difficulty of the cyclic peptide connected end to end is greatest. Because the peptide bond of the linear peptide has strong p bond characteristic, the molecule prefers to form a trans-conformation and is in a stretching state, so that carboxyl and amino groups of the end group belonging to a reaction center are far away in space, which is unfavorable for intramolecular condensation reaction, but is favorable for intermolecular condensation.
The end-to-end cyclic peptides are usually linear peptides free at the N-and C-termini in dilute solution (10 -3 ~10 -4 M) is synthesized by forming an amide bond from a carboxyl group and an amino group. The type and number of amino acids in the linear precursor plays a critical role in the ease of ring formation and the yield of cyclic peptides.
The diversity of cyclic peptide synthesis methods is due to the wide variety of numbers and types of amino acids contained in the cyclic peptide precursors, linear peptides. Reagents and methods that exhibit efficient, rapid condensation on certain linear peptides may become inefficient or ineffective on other peptide chains. Thus, finding a corresponding cyclic peptide synthesis method based on the sequence of the target cyclic peptide must go through long and serious exploration and effort.
End-to-end cyclization is an important method for improving the rigidity and stability of peptide structures. Since an exoprotease, such as aminopeptidase or carboxypeptidase, can recognize the N-terminal or C-terminal group of a linear peptide and hydrolyze it. Thus, cyclic peptides are more resistant to proteolytic degradation by enzymes than linear peptides. The cyclic structure limits the conformation of the cyclic peptide in advance, closes the amino groups exposed at the two ends, and makes the enzyme digestion effect poor, thereby reducing the entropy cost in the receptor binding process. This feature increases their binding affinity and specificity for receptor and protein targets. They are therefore suitable for detecting and modulating protein-protein interactions. By appropriate design, cyclic peptides can mimic the secondary structure of proteins (e.g., alpha helices and beta hairpins) that are key modules for receptor recognition. All of these advantageous pharmacological characteristics make cyclic peptides potential drug candidates.
The synthesis method of peptide chain mainly comprises liquid phase synthesis and solid phase synthesis. Liquid phase synthesis uses a fully protected linear precursor (except for the two cyclized ends) directly coupled in the presence of a coupling reagent. However, this strategy has several drawbacks, resulting in a low synthesis efficiency. First, cyclization must be performed in highly diluted solutions to prevent/reduce oligomerization due to intermolecular reactions, because peptide cyclization is an entropy-reducing process, resulting in a large waste of solvents, and cumbersome handling and post-treatment processes. Second, activated C-terminal carboxylic acids are prone to epimerization and thus a pair of stereoisomers, which may also be produced by the enolization of activated C-terminal carboxylic acids by deprotonation of the alpha protons under basic conditions, and thus liquid phase synthesis requires very high purification procedures, resulting in reduced synthesis yields. Finally, some fully protected linear peptide precursors have poor solubility in organic solvents, preventing cyclization. Thus, the solid-phase polypeptide synthesis (SPPS) method is more competitive.
The existing head-to-tail cyclization method mainly comprises the following steps: cyclization on resin (on-resin cyclization), chemical ligation (chemical ligation), azide-olefin cycloaddition (azide-alkyne cycloaddition), ring-closing metathesis (ring-closing metathesis), electrostatically controlled macrocyclization (electronically controlled macro-cyclizations), and the like.
Related reports (Sortase A as a tool for high-yield histatin cyclization, jan G.M.Bolscher, the FASEB journal. Research Communication) that a method for preparing cyclized Hst1 by adopting a Sortase A enzyme method is available, and high-activity Hst1 cyclic peptides are synthesized, but The prepared cyclic peptides have poor solubility due to complicated steps of The Sortase A enzyme method, and are low in price and belong to bacterial enzymes, and bacterial product residues are easily contained, so that The problems of process safety of immunogens, pathogenic microorganisms and The like are brought, and The method is difficult to prepare high-purity Hst1 cyclic peptides which can be produced in a large scale, in addition, large recognition units are needed, redundant amino acid sequences are introduced at The head end and The tail end of The method, so that The length and The sequence complexity of original polypeptides are unnecessarily increased, and The method is not particularly suitable for small-molecule oligopeptides. In addition, CN103249426a discloses a cyclic analogue of histidines prepared by disulfide bonding, but the cyclic peptides usually attached to side chains are prepared by disulfide bonding, it is difficult to prepare stable end-to-end cyclic peptides, and they are not suitable for polypeptide sequences containing no cysteine residues.
The complete sequence of The linear Hst1 is truncated, so that The shortest sequence Hst1-MAD capable of maintaining The activity of Hst1 can be obtained (see Structure-activity analysis of histatin, a potent wound healing peptide from human saliva: cyclization of histatin potentiates molar activity 1000-fold, the FASEB journal. Research Communication), and The required cost is obviously reduced when The same activity is achieved due to The obvious reduction of The molecular weight of The truncated sequence. If the head-tail cyclic peptide of the Hst1-MAD can be further prepared to improve the activity and stability, the unit activity production cost can be further reduced. Therefore, a preparation method of the head-to-tail cyclic peptide of the shortest sequence Hst1-MAD which is simpler, more efficient, less in side reaction, high in solubility of a cyclized product, safe, sterile and capable of realizing large-scale production and keeping the Hst1 activity is urgently needed, so that the unit activity of Hst1 series products is further improved, and the production cost is reduced.

250 40 82 15
500 40 91 7

1000 60 80 16
As can be seen from Table 1, the cyclization reaction was significantly affected by different amounts of the linear Hst1-MAD oligopeptide, and the reaction rate was decreased as the amount of the linear oligopeptide was increased, and the yield and the side reaction occurrence ratio were also changed accordingly, wherein the reaction rate was still faster and the yield reached 94% with the linear oligopeptide addition of 750mg, and the side reaction occurrence ratio was very low, so that the most preferable linear oligopeptide addition was 750mg in 20ml of the solvent.

Acetonitrile is therefore preferred: dimethyl sulfoxide (2:1) was used as a solvent.
