Synthesis of Isopeptide Epoxide Peptidomimetics
Two epoxide-containing peptidomimetics of the isopeptide, glutamyl-γ-glutamate, have been synthesized via a route that should be generally applicable to the synthesis of isopeptide analogues in which an oxirane replaces the scissile peptide bond. Enzymes
