Application

3-Nitro-2-pyridinesulfenyl chloride (NpysCl) was employed as the starting material for the synthesis of N-, O- and S-Npys-protected amino acid.

General description

The 3-nitro-2-pyridinesulphenyl (Npys) moiety is useful as a protecting-activating group for cysteine, particularly in the synthesis of cyclic and unsymmetrical disulfides. The stability of NpysCl was studied in various solvents.

The delivery of Cytochrome c (Cyt c) to the cytosol stimulates apoptosis in cells where its release from mitochondria and apoptotic induction is inhibited. We developed a drug delivery system consisting of Cyt c nanoparticles decorated with folate-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)-thiol

3-Nitro-2-pyridinesulfenyl chloride (NpysCl) is the starting material for the synthesis of N-, O- and S-Npys-protected amino acids. Two efficient, novel synthetic routes to NpysCl are described. The stability of NpysCl was determined in a variety of solvents, with and without

The thiol groups of leucinthiol, cysteamine and cysteine incorporated into opioid peptides enkephalin and morphiceptin were activated by the 3-nitro-2-pyridinesulphenyl (Npys) group to form mixed disulphides highly reactive to a free thiol. Enkephalin analogues containing Npys-leucinthiol or -cysteine at positions

The inhibitory capacity of C-Npys (S-[3-nitro-2-pyridinesulfenyl]) derivatives over thiol-containing serine proteases has never been tested. In the present work we used an extracellular serine-thiol proteinase activity from the fungal pathogen Paracoccidioides brasiliensis (PbST) to describe a potent inhibitory capacity of

The hydroxylic side-chain functional groups of serine, threonine, hydroxproline and tyrosine, the alpha and epsilon-amino moieties of lysine and the thiol group of cysteine were masked by the 3-nitro-2-pyridinesulfenyl (Npys) protecting group. Deprotection was mildly affected by thiolysis with either
