Abstract

2/3-O-[Bz(NO2)-Orn(Boc)]-5-O-Piv-Ado (1) and its deoxy analog: 3-O-[Bz(NO2)-Orn(Boc)]-5-O-Piv-2- dAdo (2) were designed and synthesized as substrates for the model ribosome reaction we used to demonstrate the crucial role of A76 2-OH of peptidyl-tRNA in the rate acceleration of peptide bond formation during protein biosynthesis.

Keywords: Design, peptide synthesis, nucleoside synthesis, ribosome catalysis
