Labeling of proteins and oligopeptides with luminescent lanthanide(III) chelates

摘要

Synthesis of a building block that allows introduction of photoluminescent europium(III) and samarium(III) chelates to synthetic oligopeptides on solid phase using standard Fmoc chemistry is described. Upon completion of the oligopeptide synthesis, these conjugates were converted to the corresponding lanthanide(III) chelates by treatment with appropriate lanthanide(III) salt. Also synthesis of a new terpyridine-based europium(III) chelate designed for solution phase protein labeling is demonstrated. Copyright (c) 2005 European Peptide Society and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
