Fmoc Amino Acids
Amino acids are the primary reaction components for solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). As with any reagent, quality, purity, and convenience are of paramount importance. CEM has high quality amino acids conveniently available for a wide range of applications. One common challenge associated with SPPS is unwanted aspartimide formation stemming from side reactions mostly associated with Asp-Gly residues.1 CEM has specialized products available to help suppress or eliminate aspartimide formation, as well as high quality amino acids for more general applications. Aside from linear synthesis, specialized amino acids and orthogonal side chain protection can help induce helices, initiate symmetric or asymmetric branching, form bridged or stapled structures, or cyclize the entire peptide chain.
