Synthesis of analogs of the serum thymic nonapeptide, "facteur thymique serique" (FTS). Part II. 1980

J Martinez, and D Blanot, and G Auger, and A Sasaki, and E Bricas

New analogs of FTS (Facteur Thymique Sérique), less than (Formula: see text), a circulating thymic factor, were prepared by replacing the amino acid residues in positions, 1, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 3 and 6 together. Five other analogs of C-terminal heptapeptide were prepared by replacing the amino acid residues in position 3 or 6. These peptides were synthesized using conventional synthesis in solution.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007202	Indicators and Reagents	Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.
