Total chemical synthesis of the site-selective azide-labeled [I66A]HIV-1 protease

Chem Commun (Camb). 2015 Oct 7;51(78):14632-5. doi: 10.1039/c5cc04846j.

Abstract

The first total chemical synthesis of the site-selective azide-labeled [I66A]HIV-1 protease is described by native chemical ligation. Chemical synthesis of azide-labeled proteins would provide useful protein tools for biochemical, biophysical or medical studies.
