โœฆ Synopsis


Two pathways for the substitution of a tert-butyl group from (S-tert-butyll-homocysteine by an alkyl residue are described. Pathway B via homocysteine thiolactone, can be used to modify any peptide containing a C-terminal methionine amide. The neuropeptide Substance P, (SP), is a member of the tachykinin family, a group of peptides which share, among other common features,a C-terminal methionine amide (11. Recently, two other tachykinins, NKA and NKB, (Z-51 have been found in the central nervous system and
