CHEMO-ENZYMATIC SYNTHESIS OF A C-TERMINAL ARYL AMIDE OF AN AMINO ACID OR PEPTIDE

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for preparing an aryl amide, comprising reacting an aryl amine with a compound selected from N-protected amino acids and optionally N-protected peptides in the presence of a hydrolytic enzyme. The invention further relates to the use of a compound obtained in a method according to the invention in the manufacture of a diagnostic. In addition the invention relates to the use of a compound obtained in a method according to the invention as a substrate for a proteolytic enzyme.
