## Background: The proteasome is a large multicatalytic protease complex (700 kda) involved in a number of highly regulated processes. it has three major catalytic activities: a chymotrypsin-like activity, a trypsin-like activity and a post-glutamyl peptide hydrolyzing (pgph) activity. to be useful

β¦ Synopsis
The solid phase synthesis of the known proteasome inhibitor ZL 3 VS, using Kenner's safety catch protocol, is described. This methodology has been extended to the synthesis of various novel peptide vinyl sulfone and peptide epoxyketone derivatives.

## Abstract Expressed protein ligation (EPL) is a protein semisynthesis technique that allows the siteβspecific introduction of unnatural amino acids and biophysical probes into proteins. In the present study, we illustrate the utility of the approach through the generation of two semisynthetic pro
## Abstract Inhibition of the proteasome, the multicatalytic protease complex responsible for the turnover of many cellular proteins, represents an attractive target in the development of new drug therapies, proteasome inhibitors being potentially useful tools for the treatment of pathologies such
Peptide nucleic acids (PNA) were synthesized by a modified Merrifield method using several improvements. Activation by O-[benzotriazol-1-yl]-1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate in combination with in situ neutralization of the resin allowed efficient coupling of all four Boc-protected PNA
