Preface
Peptideshavemanyimportantbiologicalfunctions,andtheyhavebeenextensivelyusedas
drugsandvaccineantigens.Amajoradvantagetopeptidesisthattheyareeasilysynthesized
throughchemicalorbiologicalmethods.Solidandsolutionphasesyntheticmethodsusing
FmocorBocprotectinggroupscanbeemployedtoproducepeptides,usingeithermanual
or automated procedures, with or without microwave assistance. However, precision in
synthesis isof paramountimportance. Theappropriate selection of resins, linkers,and side
chain protecting groups is essential for successful synthesis. To facilitate this, for example,
protecting groups can be removed by a variety of techniques and conditions to optimize
productyieldandpurity.
To improve their drug-like properties, peptides can be coupled with lipids, sugars,
and/or nucleosides. Peptides can also be conjugated with other peptides, proteins, and
polymers for formulation or delivery purposes using a wide range of modern conjugation
andcondensationmethods.
In this book, a variety of procedures for synthetically producing peptides and their
derivatives are described. Techniques are presented in a practical, detailed, step-by-step
mannerin order to beeasily understandable and useful for skilledinvestigators and under-
graduate students alike. Troubleshooting sections, as well as details of alternative methods
thatcanbeusedtoaddressconceivablepotentialissues,areincludedasadditionalresources
withineachchapter.
The book provides an extensive collection of specific, thoroughly tested, scientifically
validtechniquesformanycrucialprocessesthatwillallowresearcherstoefficientlyprepare,
purify,characterize,andusepeptidesforchemical,biochemical,andbiologicalstudies.
