✦ Synopsis


The cyclopeptide (-RGDfK-) is a potent and selective a V b 3 /a V b 5 integrin ligand. A methodology for the conjugation of cyclo(-RGDfK-) through the regioselective derivatisation of lysine side chains, either in solution or directly on the solid support, is described. This provides a rapid and flexible chemical entry to conjugated integrin ligands bearing reporter groups for biological investigations or reactive chemical functions for the preparation of new vector systems.
