Development of a hypersensitive periodate-cleavable amino acid that is methionine- and disulfide-compatible and its application in MHC exchange reagents for T cell Characterisation [PDF]
, 2012 Incorporation of cleavable linkers into peptides and proteins is of particular value in the study of biological processes. Here we describe the synthesis of a cleavable linker that is hypersensitive to oxidative cleavage as the result of the periodate ...

The Peptide Synthesis. II. Use of the Phenol Resin for the Peptide Synthesis [PDF]
Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan, 1968 Abstract The phenol resin is useful as support of the solid phase peptide synthesis. Its use is particularly advantageous for the synthesis of the N-protected peptide fragments, and those which have the intramolecular disulfide bond, such as oxytocin.
