โฆ Synopsis
Many different materials have been suggested as solid supports for combinatorial chemistry, but cotton threads have only occasionally been used. Using a one-dimensional support necessitates clever methods for the generation of a library, and a recent publication describes an ingenious method for both the synthesis and testing of a library (A.W. Schwabacher et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 121, (1999), 8669-8670).

The melanocortin peptides that include the ฮฑ-, ฮฒ-, ฮณ-melanocyte stimulating hormones (MSH) and adrenocorticotrophin (ACTH) all possess a His-Phe-Arg-Trp epitope that is known as the 'message' sequence. These peptides are responsible for a range of physiological actions including skin pigmentation, e
