Current methods for the macrocyclization of phage-displayed peptides often rely on small molecule linkers that nonspecifically react with targeted amino acid residues. To expand tool kits for more regioselective macrocyclization of phage-displayed peptides, this study explores the unique condensation reaction between an N-terminal cysteine and nitrile along with the reactivity of an internal cysteine. Five 2-cyanopyrimidine derivatives were synthesized for this purpose and evaluated for their selective macrocyclization of a protein-fused model peptide. Among these, two novel linkers, 2-chloro-N-(2-cyanopyrimidin-5-yl)acetamide (pCAmCP) and 2-chloro-N-(2-cyanopyrimidin-4-yl)acetamide (mCAmCP), emerged as efficient molecules and were demonstrated to macrocyclize phage-displayed peptide libraries flanked by an N-terminal and an internal cysteine. Using these linkers to generate macrocyclic peptide libraries displayed on phages, peptide ligands for the ZNRF3 extracellular domain were successfully identified. One of the identified peptides, Z27S1, exhibited potent binding to ZNRF3 with a KD value of 360 nM. Notably, the selection results revealed distinct peptide enrichment patterns depending on whether mCAmCP or pCAmCP was used, underscoring the significant impact of linker choice on macrocyclic peptide identification. Overall, this study validates the development of two novel regioselective, small molecule linkers for phage display of macrocyclic peptides and highlights the benefits of employing multiple linkers during phage selections.
