A HPLC and CE pure human proinsulin C-peptide was synthesized by solid-phase method and TSK column purification. Its amino acid sequence and MS were consistent with theoretical values. In comparison with the formly reported chemical synthesis of C-peptide, this method has the advantage of simplicity and higher overall yield (41%). To improve the immunogenicity and specificity of oligopeptide antibody, the acrylyl-C-peptides were transformed into a polymer the product had a poly-propionyl-core matrix with C-peptide branches. This treatment gave a macromolecule with a M(r) about 25 kD. By using the polymer to immunize New Zealand rabbits for 30 days, specific antiserum was obtained with titer of 2.5x10(4) (by ELISA), which did not cross react with BSA. Thus, the poly-propionyl-peptide system provided a new approach for preparing synthetic peptide antibody and therefore is promising for the preparation of synthetic peptide-based vaccine.
