title: Gel-Phase synthesis of hydrophobic (thr14) (thr19) galanin (1 -19) fragment on a high capacity flexible crosslinked polystyrene support.
abstract: A hydrophobic analogue of human galanin (1-19) fragment has been synthesized using Boc/Bzl tactics to demonstrate the synthetic utility of the flexible crosslinked polystyrene support prepared by the suspension polymerization of styrene and 1,4-butanediol dimethacrylate. The copolymer was chloromethylated to 2.36 mmol Cl/g. The functionalized resin was found to possess all the physicochemical properties similar to Merrifield resin. The free peptide was obtained in high yield and purity as judged by RP-HPLC and characterized by amino acid analysis and ESI-MS.
