Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To identify the residues contributing the inhibitory activity of the previously-developed cyclic peptide against the EGF receptor dimerization, various analogs of the peptide were chemically synthesized and their activities were measured. Judged by activities of the retro-inverso and alanine-substituted analogs, the Tyr-246 side-chain was revealed to be involved in the inhibitory activity. To optimize the structure of the cyclic peptide for acquiring stronger inhibitory activity, a novel high-throughput screening technology was developed, with which affinities of peptides in a mixture solution can be evaluated simultaneously.
