环肽主要源于植物、真菌,以及海洋天然产物和绝大多数生物有机体中[1]。环肽是具有特殊的生物活性和较强的药理活性的一类化合物[2-3]。而且大多数环肽结构比直链肽更加稳定,且脂溶性高、穿膜性强、体内半衰期长等优点[4-5],从而使环肽在抗肿瘤、抗病毒、天然领域中起着重要的作用[6-9]。
Auyuittuqamide A是从极地海洋天然产物微孢子菌属(RKAG186)中分离得到的一种环肽化合物,它是由10个氨基酸残基组成。Russell等[10]从Sesquicillium microsporum中分离得到四个环十肽auyuittuqamide A-D。该类肽有一定的天然活性和对人体低毒性[11-12]。auyuittuqamide A经过核磁共振光谱法和串联质谱法证明了这类化合物的结构。用Marfey法[13]确定了氨基酸的绝对结构。然而,天然产物中分离提取的auyuittuqamide A的含量很低,很难推进构效关系和下一步的研究与应用。因此,采用固相合成法合成环十肽具有成本低、时间短、操作简单等优点[14-16]。
本文用2–氯三苯甲基氯(CTC)树脂为固相载体,通过HOBT/DIC为缩合体系,依次缩合氨基酸,完成全保护直链肽的合成。再以PyBOP/HOBT/DIPEA为缩合体系,在DCM溶液中液相环合[17-19],随后利用TFA进行保护基的脱除,进而得到环十肽auyuittuqamide A(图1)。

Abstract:Objective To synthesize the natural cyclopeptide auyuittuqamide A by Fmoc-based solid phase linear synthesis and liquid phase cyclization. Methods Using 2-chlorotriphenylmethyl chloride (CTC) resin as the solid support, 1,3-diisopropylcarbodiimide (DIC) and 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt) as the condensing agents, 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) to protect amino acids were assembled in sequence, and then the linear peptide bearing the protected groups was obtained in presence of trifluoroethanol (TFE) cutting reagent. The protected linear peptide was cyclized with the aid of benzotriazole hexafluorophosphate (PyBOP) and 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt) in dichloromethane (DCM) solution, followed by trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) deprotection to obtain the cyclic peptide, auyuittuqamide A that was purified by preparative HPLC and characterized by HR-MS and 500MHz 1H-NMR. Results The purity of auyuittuqamide A was more than 95% and the total yield was 5.48%. Conclusion This method has simple synthesis steps and high yield. It is the first to establish a fully synthesis method for the natural cyclic peptide auyuittuqamide A, which lays the foundation for further research of auyuittuqamide A. -
