Abstract

The symmetry phosphoramidite reagents were synthesized via atwo-step route and used for the `one pot' synthesis of thephosphoserine building block Fmoc-Ser(PO(OBzl)OH)-OH. Theprocedure is simple and rapid, and product is obtained in highyield. When using this building block, the phosphopeptide(RKGS(PO3H2)SSNEPSSDSLSSPTLLAL) related to theC-terminal of c-Fos protein was synthesized manually byFmoc/t-Bu procedure and characterized by matrix assisted laserdesorption/ionization time of flight (MALDI-TOF) massspectrometry. In the fragment ion of phosphopeptide in theMALDI-TOF mass spectrometry with a curved field reflection, theacquired information can be used to identify the sequences andthe phosphorylation sites of the peptide.
