Abstract

glycoligation glycoprotein N-glycoprotein native chemical ligation recombinant protein thioacid capture ligation
The goal of the project was to synthesize asparagine-linked glycoproteins with a natural linkage. We described an aspartyl thioester unnatural amino acid and its incorporation into a recombinant protein. Its utility was demonstrated by native chemical ligation. Attempts to transform the aspartyl thioester into an asparagine-linked glycoprotein with a natural linkage were unsuccessful. Hydrolysis was observed.
