Abstract
The cyclic cystine-knot peptide, kalata B1, was synthesized by employing a novel Fmoc-compatible thioethylalkylamido (TEA) thioester surrogate via an N-S acyl shift followed by a thiol-thioester exchange reaction. TEA thioester surrogate is cost-effective, conveniently prepared in one-step with starting materials, readily available from commercial sources, and highly efficient in preparing peptide thioesters.

Abstract
Ubiquitination is a highly important posttranslational modification in eukaryotic cells where a target protein is conjugated to ubiquitin or a chain of ubiquitins via an isopeptide bond to trigger various cellular events such as proteasomal degradation. Rigorous investigations of the ubiquitin signal at the molecular level require homogeneous samples of ubiquitin chains in their free form or as anchored to a protein substrate in adequate quantities. The complexity of ubiquitin chains in terms of linkage types (owing to presence of seven Lys in ubiquitin) makes them difficult to prepare via enzymatic methods. Even more challenging is the attachment of these chains to a protein target at a selected site. This dearth is being filled by the recent developments of novel chemical tools that offer atomic level control over the synthesis for structural and functional studies. These emerging chemical approaches are discussed in this mini-review with focus on the preparation of ubiquitin chains to aid the ongoing efforts in understanding their role in the ubiquitin signal.

Abstract
Biopolymers with repeating modules composed of either folded peptides or tertiary protein domains are considered some of the basic biomaterials that nature has evolved to optimize for energy efficient synthesis and unique functions. Such biomaterials continue to inspire scientists to mimic their exceptional properties and the ways that nature adopts to prepare them. Ubiquitin chains represent another example of nature's approach to use a protein-repeating module to prepare functionally important biopolymers. In the current work, we utilize a novel synthetic strategy to prepare bifunctional ubiquitin monomers having a C-terminal thioester and a nucleophilic 1,2-aminothiol at a desired position to examine their polymerization products under different conditions. Our study reveals that such analogues, when subjected to polymerization conditions under different folding states, afford distinct patterns of polymerization products where both the dynamic and the tertiary structures of the chains play important roles in such processes. Moreover, we also show that the presence of a specific ubiquitin-binding domain, which binds specifically to some of these chains, could interfere selectively with the polymerization outcome. Our study represents the first example of examining the polymerization of designed and synthetic repeating modules based on tertiary protein domains and affords early lessons in the design and synthesis of biomaterial. In regards to the ubiquitin system, our study may have implications on the ease of synthesis of ubiquitin chains with varying lengths and types for structural and functional analyses. Importantly, such an approach could also assist in understanding the enzymatic machinery and the factors controlling the assembly of these chains with a desired length.

Abstract
The desulfurization reaction introduced by Yan and Dawson as a postnative chemical ligation step greatly expanded the scope of ligation chemistry beyond Xaa-Cys (Xaa is any amino acid) by making ligation at Xaa-Phe, Xaa-Val, Xaa-Lys, Xaa-Leu, Xaa-Thr, and Xaa-Pro junctions accessible in the synthesis of functional proteins. A new ligation site based on Xaa-Gln utilizing γ-mercaptoglutamine is reported, and several examples on the efficiency of ligation coupled with desulfurization are provided.

Abstract
Ubiquitination/ubiquitylation is involved in a wide range of cellular processes in eukaryotes, such as protein degradation and DNA repair. Ubiquitination is a reversible post-translational modification, with the removal of the ubiquitin (Ub) protein being catalyzed by a family of enzymes known as deubiquitinases (DUBs). Approximately 100 DUBs are encoded in the human genome and are involved in a variety of regulatory processes, such as cell-cycle progression, tissue development, and differentiation. DUBs were, moreover, found to be associated with several diseases and as such are emerging as potential therapeutic targets. Several directions have been pursued in the search for lead anti-DUB compounds. However, none of these strategies have delivered inhibitors reaching advanced clinical stages due to several challenges in the discovery process, such as the absence of a highly sensitive and practically available high-throughput screening assay. In this study, we report on the design and preparation of a FRET-based assay for DUBs based on the application of our recent chemical method for the synthesis of Ub bioconjugates. In the assay, the ubiquitinated peptide was specifically labeled with a pair of FRET labels and used to screen a library comprising 1000 compounds against UCH-L3. Such analysis identified a novel and potent inhibitor able to inhibit this DUB in time-dependent manner with k(inact) = 0.065 min(-1) and K(i) = 0.8 μM. Our assay, which was also found suitable for the UCH-L1 enzyme, should assist in the ongoing efforts targeting the various components of the ubiquitin system and studying the role of DUBs in health and disease.

Abstract
Protein ubiquitination, the covalent attachment of ubiquitin to target proteins, has emerged as one of the most prevalent posttranslational modifications (PTMs), regulating nearly every cellular pathway. The diversity of signaling associated with this particular PTM stems from the myriad ways in which a target protein can be modified by ubiquitin, e.g., monoubiquitin, multi-monoubiquitin, and polyubiquitin linkages. In this Review, we focus on developments in both enzymatic and chemical methods that engender ubiquitin with new chemical and physical properties. Moreover, we highlight how these methods have enabled studies directed toward (i) characterizing enzymes responsible for reversing the ubiquitin modification, (ii) understanding the influence of ubiquitin on protein function and crosstalk with other PTMs, and (iii) uncovering the impact of polyubiquitin chain linkage and length on downstream signaling events.

Abstract
Post-translational modification of proteins with ubiquitin (Ub) and Ub chains controls numerous biochemical events. Although it has been proven that all Ub-Ub linkages are formed in cells, studies have been limited for a long time to K48 and K63 chains as these can be generated biochemically. Access to the remaining (atypical) Ub-Ub chain types has been hampered by a lack of specific E2 enzymes. In this chapter we present a solution to this problem by using a native chemical ligation approach to obtain all other (i.e. K6, K11, K27, K29 and K33) diubiquitin chains.

Abstract
Peptide thioester synthesis by N→S acyl transfer is being intensively explored by many research groups the world over. Reasons for this likely include the often straightforward method of precursor assembly using Fmoc-based chemistry and the fundamentally interesting acyl migration process. In this review we introduce recent advances in this exciting area and discuss, in more detail, our own efforts towards the synthesis of peptide thioesters through N→S acyl transfer in native peptide sequences. We have found that several peptide thioesters can be readily prepared and, what's more, there appears to be ample opportunity for further development and discovery.

Abstract
Genomic DNA in the eukaryotic cell nucleus is present in the form of chromatin. Histones are the principal protein component of chromatin, and their post-translational modifications play important roles in regulating the structure and function of chromatin and thereby in determining cell development and disease. An understanding of how histone modifications translate into downstream cellular events is important from both developmental and therapeutic perspectives. However, biochemical studies of histone modifications require access to quantities of homogenously modified histones that cannot be easily isolated from natural sources or generated by enzymatic methods. In the past decade, chemical synthesis has proven to be a powerful tool in translating the language of histone modifications by providing access to uniformly modified histones and by the development of stable analogues of thermodynamically labile modifications. This Review highlights the various synthetic and semisynthetic strategies that have enabled biochemical and biophysical characterization of site-specifically modified histones.

Abstract
An operationally simple method for the synthesis of peptide thioesters is developed using standard Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis procedures. The method relies on the use of a premade enamide-containing amino acid which, in the final TFA cleavage step, renders the desired thioester functionality through an irreversible intramolecular N-to-S acyl transfer.

Abstract
Ubiquitination-the attachment of ubiquitin to a protein target-is involved in a wide range of cellular processes in eukaryotes. This dynamic posttranslational modification utilizes three enzymes to link, through an isopeptide bond, the C-terminal Gly of ubiquitin to the lysine side chain from a protein target. Progress in the field aiming at deciphering the role of ubiquitination in biological processes has been very dependent on the discovery of the enzymatic machinery, which is known to be very specific to each protein target. Chemical approaches offer a complementary route to the biochemical methods to construct these conjugates in vitro in order to assist in unraveling the role of ubiquitination on protein function. Herein is presented a novel method for the rapid synthesis of ubiquitinated peptides employing solid-phase peptide to generate the critical isopeptide linkage. Using these tools, several ubiquitinated peptides derived from known ubiquitinated proteins were prepared. Among them is the ubiquitinated C-terminal fragment of H2B, which can be used in the synthesis of monoubiquitinated H2B. For the first time, we systematically assessed the effect of the length of the ubiquitinated peptides on the UCH-L3 activity and found that peptides of up to ∼20 residues are preferred substrates.

Abstract
Many proteins are post-translationally modified by the attachment of poly-ubiquitin (Ub) chains. Notably, the biological function of the attached Ub chain depends on the specific lysine residue used for conjugate formation. Here, we report an easy and efficient method to synthesize site-specifically linked Ub dimers by click reaction between two artificial amino acids. In fact, we were able to synthesize all seven naturally occurring Ub connectivities, providing the first example of a method that gives access to all Ub dimers. Furthermore, these synthetic Ub dimers are recognized by the natural ubiquitination machinery and are proteolytically stable, making them optimal candidates to further investigate the function of differently linked Ub chains.
