    A convenient approach to prepare topologically segregated bilayer beads for one-bead two-compound combinatorial peptide libraries
    (Springer, 2012-07-18) Girard, Anick; Biron, Éric; Bédard, François
    One-bead one-compound (OBOC) combinatorial peptide libraries have been used to identify ligands and modulators for a wide variety of biological targets. While being very efficient with linear peptides, OBOC libraries with N-terminally blocked peptides or with unsequenceable building blocks require encoding. To fully exploit OBOC combinatorial methods with cyclic peptides and peptidomimetics, topologically segregated bilayer beads have been developed. This strategy offers the opportunity to synthesize two compounds per bead, i.e. with one compound exposed on the bead surface for screening, and the other one found within the inner layer as a tag for sequencing and compound identification. Bead segregation often involves the use of unstable derivatives or requires a series of protection–deprotection steps. In order to expedite and optimize bead segregation, the performance of various reagents has been studied. The results obtained herein show that bead segregation can be efficiently performed with commercially available reagents. Finally, in order to control outer/inner layer ratios in segregated beads, the effects of different parameters have been evaluated. We report a straightforward and efficient procedure to prepare topologically segregated bilayer beads in a wide range of controllable, predictable, and reproducible outer versus inner ratios.

    Practical ring-opening strategy for the sequence determination of cyclic peptides from one-bead-one-compound libraries
    (American Chemical Society, 2013-09-26) Girard, Anick; Biron, Éric; Liang, Xinxia
    The use of cyclic peptides in one-bead-one-compound libraries is limited by difficulties in sequencing hit compounds. Lacking a free N-terminal amine, such peptides cannot be sequenced by the Edman degradation approach, and complex fragmentation patterns are obtained by tandem mass spectrometry. To overcome this problem, we designed an alternative approach introducing a methionine residue within the macrocycle and as a linker to allow simultaneous ring-opening and release from the resin upon treatment with cyanogen bromide. The methionine linker was inverted relative to the peptide chain to allow the synthesis of cyclic peptides anchored by a lysine side chain and to avoid the presence of two C-terminal homoserine lactones on the released linear peptides. After MALDI-TOF MS/MS analysis, the peptides released from a single bead were sequenced manually and with a de novo sequencing software. The strategy described herein is compatible with commonly used amino acids and allows sequencing of cyclic peptides in one-bead-one-compound libraries, thus reducing the need for encoding.
