Abstract

The utility of thermitase, a thermophilic proteolytic enzyme fromThermoactinomyces vulgaris, as a catalyst for peptide synthesis has been studied using several Nα-benzyloxycarbonyl dipeptide esters as carboxyl components and Leu-NH2 as nucleophile. Couplings were most successful with substrates containing Met, Leu, Ala, Phe, Tyr in P1-position, and Val, Ala, Pro in P2, whereas the substrates with Val, Ile, Pro in P1 failed to couple.
