CHEMICALLY MODIFYING PEPTIDES

摘要

A method for chemically modifying a peptide, derivative or analogue thereof is described. The method comprises contacting a peptide, derivative or analogue thereof with a fluoro-heteroaromatic compound to activate the peptide, derivative or analogue thereof. The activated peptide, derivative or analogue thereof is then contacted with a nucleophile or base to create a chemically modified peptide, derivative or analogue thereof.
