Research abstract
PRELIMINARY RESEARCH PERFORMED AT BIOSEARCH, INC. HAS CONFIRMED THAT MODIFIED INORGANIC MATERIALS MAY HAVE SUPERIOR PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES FOR ATTACHMENT AND ASSEMBLY OF PEPTIDE CHAINS DURING SOLID-PHASE PEPTIDE SYNTHESIS. THESE SUPPORTS ARE BELIEVED TO PROVIDE A MORE MORE FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR THE CHEMICAL REACTIONS INVOLVED, AND THEIR RIGIDITY IS EXPECTED TO MINIMIZE PEPTIDE AGGREGATION PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED IN THE SYNTHESIS OFCOMPLEX PEPTIDES WITH CONVENTIONAL POLYMERIC SUPPORTS. MANYAREAS OF BIOTECHNOLOGY, AS WELL AS BIOCHEMICAL AND PHARMACEUTICAL RESEARCH, WILL BENEFIT FROM THE ANTICIPATED EFFICIENCY OF SYNTHESIS AND PURITY OF PRODUCTS RESULTING FROM THIS INNOVATION. PROGRESS IN THESE AREAS IS OFTEN LIMITED BY THE CAREFUL PURIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION REQUIRED FOR THE HETEROGENOUS PRODUCTS CURRENTLY OBTAINED.
