✦ Synopsis
The use of chemoselective ligation methods and orthogonal protection techniques allows access to Template-Assembled Synthetic Protein (TASP) molecules exhibiting a large variety of packing topologies. This is demonstrated for the synthesis of an antiparallel 4a-helical bundle TASP by condensing amphiphilic peptide blocks, containing aldehyde functions at the C-or N-terminus, to a selectively addressable topological template via oxime bond formation. The resulting antiparallel 4a-helix TASP is obtained in high yield and shows a template-induced helical conformation.
