摘要: Cyclization of linear sequences is a well recognized tool in opioid peptide chemistry for generating analogs with improved bioactivities. can be achieved through various bridging bonds between ends or side-chains. In our earlier paper we have reported the synthesis and biological activity cyclic peptide, Tyr-c[ d -Lys-Phe-Phe-Asp]NH 2 ( 1 ), which viewed as an analog endomorphin-2 (EM-2, Tyr-Pro-Phe-Phe-NH ). was amide bond side-chains -Lys Asp residues. Here, to increase rigidity structure, replaced cis - trans -4-aminocyclohexyl- -alanine -ACAla). Two sets incorporating either Tyr Dmt (2′,6′-dimethyltyrosine) residues position were synthesized. binding studies -ACAla showed high affinity both, μ- δ-opioid receptors (MOR DOR, respectively) moderate κ-opioid receptor (KOR), while exceptionally MOR-selective. Conformational analyses by NMR molecular docking been performed investigate structural features responsible noteworthy MOR selectivity.
