What is A convenient solid phase synthesis of S-palmitoyl transmembrane peptides about?

S-Palmitoylated peptides are important tools as models for integral membrane proteins to study peptide-lipid interactions. Herein, we report a convenient solid phase synthesis of S-palmitoyl transmembrane peptides. The highly acid labile S-(4-methoxytrityl) group is preferred over the S-(tert-butylsulfanyl) group for protection of the cysteine side chain since the latter gives rise to quantitative desulfurization during on-resin deprotection. The resulting free thiol function is modified with palmitic acid via a carbodiimide-mediated coupling and the title compounds are obtained in good yields and purity.
