✦ Synopsis
Two new glycosyl amino acids N'~-Fmoc-Ser[Ac4-fl-D-Galp-(1 ~ 3)-Ac2-a-D-GalN3P]-OPf p and N'~-Fmoc-Thr[Ac4-/3-D-Galp-(1 ~ 3)-Ac2-a-D-GalN3p]-OPf p were synthesized. Glycosylation of N'~-Fmoc-Ser-OPf p or N ~-Fmoc-Thr-OPfp with protected/3-o-Gal-( 1 -~ 3)-D-GaIN 3 donors afforded the glycosyl amino acids containing an activated C-terminus which could be utilized directly for solid-phase glycopeptide synthesis. The transformation of the 2-azido group into the acetamido derivative was achieved quantitatively at the end of the synthesis by treatment of the polymer-bound glycopeptide with thioacetic acid. The versatility of this strategy was demonstrated by the assembly of eight triply glycosylated mucin peptides which were synthesized simultaneously by multiple column techniques. The glycopeptides were prepared in order to investigate the substrate specificity of a galactosyltransferase.
