Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (Stat3) transmits signals from growth factors and interleukin-6 family cytokines by binding to their receptors via its Src homology 2 (SH2) domain. This results in phosphorylation of Tyr705, dimerization, translocation to the nucleus, and regulation of transcription of downstream genes. Stat3 is constitutively activated in several human cancers and...
To answer the question of whether the conformation of the Leu-Pro bond is cis or trans in Ac-pTyr-Leu-Pro-Gln-Thr-Val-NH2 when complexed with the SH2 domain of Stat3, we substituted 2,2-dimethyloxazolidines derived from serine (Ser(ΨMe,Mepro)) and threonine (Thr(ΨMe,Mepro)) for proline. The 2,2-dimethyloxazolidine and 2,2-dimethylthiazolidine pseudoproline (ΨPro) analogs induce predominantly cis Xxx-ΨPro...
O-Carbamoylserine and O-carbamoylthreonine are glutamine analogues that were incorporated into a Stat3 inhibitory peptide to probe the requirements of Gln at the pY+3 position. Fmoc-Ser-NHBn and Fmoc-Thr-NHBn were converted to nitrophenyl carbonates and were attached to Rink resin via a side-chain carbamate linkage. After assembly of the peptide, acid treatment resulted in O-carbamoylserine and O-carbamoylthreonine-containing...
