Studies relating to the ferredoxins. Part 3. The synthesis of some cysteine–glycine peptides for iron–sulphur complexing studies
Abstract
Three peptides with the general structure Ac-Gly2.(Cys.Glym)n.Cys.Gly3.Cys.Gly2.NH2(1; m= 2 or 3; n= 0 or 1), four with the general structure Ac.Gly2.Cysn.Gly2.NH2(2; n= 1–4), and three with the general structure HS.CH2.CH2.CO.Gly2.(Cys.Gly2)n.NH.CH2.CH2.SH (3; n= 0–2) have been synthesised for iron-sulphur complexing studies.
