Multiple parallel synthesis of peptides on SynPhase grafted supports.
The Multipin peptide synthesis approach originated as an immunological tool for epitope mapping. However, continuing evolution of the basic technology has permitted the synthesis of peptides at scales up to 25 micromol per modular grafted surface. At this loading, the methodology can no longer be considered just a screening tool and is now used for the synthesis of micromoles of peptide and other small drug-like molecules for high throughput compound screening. Recent developments such as the introduction of novel grafted polymeric surfaces, new linkers, as well as novel cleavage formats has extended the scope of applications for modular grafted surfaces. This review summarizes the important achievements over the last 15 years of applications of the Multipin synthesis approach and also introduces a new modular grafted surface for peptide and small molecule synthesis called the SynPhase Lantern.
