Wang resin

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States, Germany

Wang resin is a type of solid-phase resin used in organic synthesis. It is a polystyrene-based resin that is functionalized with a hydroxybenzotriazole group, which allows for the attachment of amino acids or other molecules during peptide synthesis or other chemical reactions. The core function of Wang resin is to provide a solid support for the immobilization of these molecules, enabling their subsequent chemical manipulation and purification.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Boltorn H40 (Sigma-Aldrich) was purified by precipitation from acetone and diethyl ether and dried under a vacuum at room temperature before use. Amino acids, coupling agents and the Wang resin (0.87 mmol/g) were obtained from EMD Millipore USA and used as received. The Rink amide resin (Rink amide chemMatrix, 0.49 mmol/g) was purchased from Biotage. Fmoc–N–amido–dPEG4–acid (Quantabiode-sign), mannosamine hydrochloride (Aldrich), triethylamine (TEA, Aldrich), dimethylamino pyridine (Aldrich), azido-dPEG12–NHS ester (Quanta Biodesign), pHRodo red succinimidyl ester (Thermofisher), O-(2-azidoethyl)-O′-methyl-triethylene glycol (Aldrich), 1,2-ethanedithiol (EDT, Al-drich), phenol (Acros Organics), diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA, Aldrich), trifluoroacetic acid (TFA, Alfa Aesar), thioanisole (Aldrich), triisopropylsilane (TIPS, Aldrich), succinic anhydride (Acros Organics), N-(3-(dimethylamino)-propyl)-N′-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride, EDC·HCl (Al-drich), N-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBT, Aldrich) and dibenzylcylooctyne (Click Chemistry Tools) were used as received. Methanol (Fisher) and dimethylformamide (Fisher) were dried over molecular sieves (Aldrich) of 3 and 4 Å, respectively. Azidovaleric acid was synthesized in accordance with a previously published protocol.70 All other solvents were purchased from Fisher at the highest purity available and used as received.

Synthesis and Characterization of Antimicrobial Peptides

In our experiment, we used two peptides LL-37 (LLGDFFRKSKEKIGKEFKRIVQRIKDFLRNLV-PRTES) and KR-12 (KRIVQRIKDFLR) which were synthesized manually by solid-phase method using 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) chemistry on a Wang resin (loading 0.50—mmol/g, 100–200 mesh, Merck, Germany) according to procedures described in our previous works [12 (link), 13 (link)]. The purity of peptides after purification was at least 95%, as determined by analytical reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP HPLC). Their identity was confirmed by the matrix-assisted laser desortion/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI TOF) mass spectrometry. All drugs were dissolved in 5% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in saline, which was used as vehicle.

Solid-phase Peptide Synthesis Protocol

The peptides were synthesized by solid phase methods using reagent systems and methodologies of standard Fmoc-chemistry 36 (link),37 (link). Fmoc-L-Asp-(OtBu)-OH, Wang resin, diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA), trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and triisopropylsilane (TIS) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. All other Fmoc-protected amino acids (Fmoc-L-AA-OH) were prepared from the corresponding α-amino acids and 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl chloride 38 (link). O-Benzotriazole-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyl-uronium-hexafluoro-phosphate (HBTU) was purchased from Matrix Innovation.
For the synthesis of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-attached peptide was used TentaGel® PAP Resin (Rapp Polymere GmbH, Tuebingen, Germany), a polystyrene/DVB matrix with amine terminated polyethylene oxide attached via a cleavable linkage with TFA. Dichloromethane (DCM), N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), diethyl ether, formic acid (FA), HPLC grade water and acetonitrile were obtained by VWR.
The peptides were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and LC/MS analysis. Electrospray ionization source-quadrupole time of flight (ESI-QTOF) mass spectra and 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra identified correct and pure samples (more details in Data S1).

Fmoc Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Peptides were synthesized by standard Fmoc solid-phase synthesis. The first Fmoc-amino acid was loaded on Wang resin (Sigma-Aldrich) by esterification with N,N′-Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide/4-dimethylaminopyridine. The peptide chains were elongated by using Fmoc-amino acids (3 eq.), N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA, 6 eq.), HBTU (3 eq.), and HOBt (3 eq.) in N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) for coupling and 20% piperidine in NMP for Fmoc deprotection. All peptides were cleaved from the resin and deprotected by treating with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA)/triisopropylsilane/water (95:2.5:2.5 v/v). Crude peptides were precipitated in cold diethyl ether and purified by semi-preparative RP-HPLC running a linear gradient of acetonitrile at a flow rate of 3.0 mL min–1 on a COSMOSIL 5C18-AR-300 or 5C18-AR-II packed column (10 × 250 mm) with ultraviolet detection at 220 nm. We used eluent A (0.1% TFA ultra-pure water) and eluent B (0.08% TFA acetonitrile). Pure fractions were analyzed by analytical RP-HPLC and MALDI-TOF MS. The pure peptides were lyophilized.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
