| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Collagen is the most abundant fibrous protein in animals, constituting dermis, bone and cartilage. The lysine residues in collagen peptide chain are oxidized to collagen-specific hydroxylysine residues by post-translational modification (PTM). Further PTMs of hydrosylysine residues generate the unique glyco-amino acid residues, 2-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-O-β-D-galactopyranosyl hydroxylysine. The detailed biological functions of the modified lysine residue have not been clearly understood. The purpose of this study is to prepare the glycosylated collagen models. The novel Fmoc-protected glyco-amino acids toward the solid-phase peptide synthesis were designed.
