O-Carbamoyiserine and O-carbamoylthreonine are glutamine analogues that were incorporated into a Stat3 inhibitory peptide to probe the requirements of Gin at the pY+3 position. Fmoc-Ser-NHBn and Fmoc-Thr-NHBn were converted to nitrophenyl carbonates and were attached to Rink resin via a side-chain carbamate linkage. After assembly of the peptide, acid treatment resulted in O-carbamoylserine and O-carbamoylthreonine-containing peptides. The order of affinity for Stat3 was Gin > Ser (CONH2) > Thr(CONH2) suggesting a relatively tight binding pocket for the side chain of glutamine. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
