Synthesis of a gamma-carboxyglutamic acid containing heptapeptide corresponding to bovine prothrombin residues 17-23. 1986

R A Hoke, and D W Deerfield, and L G Pedersen, and K A Koehler, and R G Hiskey

The vitamin K-dependent proteins involved in blood coagulation processes each contain a small cystine loop with the sequence -Gla-Cys-X-Gla-Gla-X-Cys-. A method for the synthesis of the heptapeptide derivative representing the 17-23 sequence of bovine prothrombin, Z-Gla-Cys-Leu-Gla-Gla-Pro-Cys-OBzl, has been developed. The 25Mg2+ n.m.r. spectrum of the heptapeptide derivative has been obtained and is compared to the n.m.r. spectra obtained from the interaction of 25Mg2+ with Z-Gla-OMe and Z-Gla-Gla-OMe.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008274 Magnesium A metallic element that has the atomic symbol Mg, atomic number 12, and atomic weight 24.31. It is important for the activity of many enzymes, especially those involved in OXIDATIVE PHOSPHORYLATION.

D009842 Oligopeptides Peptides composed of between two and twelve amino acids. Oligopeptide
D011485 Protein Binding The process in which substances, either endogenous or exogenous, bind to proteins, peptides, enzymes, protein precursors, or allied compounds. Specific protein-binding measures are often used as assays in diagnostic assessments. Plasma Protein Binding Capacity,Binding, Protein
D011516 Prothrombin A plasma protein that is the inactive precursor of thrombin. It is converted to thrombin by a prothrombin activator complex consisting of factor Xa, factor V, phospholipid, and calcium ions. Deficiency of prothrombin leads to hypoprothrombinemia.
