Human insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) is a 70 amino acid protein hormone, with key impact on growth, development, and lifespan. The physiological and clinical importance of IGF-1 prompted challenging chemical and biological trials toward the development of its analogs as molecular tools for the IGF-1 receptor (IGF1-R) studies and as new therapeutics. Here, we report a new method for the total chemical synthesis of IGF-1 analogs, which entails the solid-phase synthesis of two IGF-1 precursor chains that is followed by the CuI-catalyzed azide−alkyne cycloaddition ligation and by biomimetic formation of a native pattern of disulfides. The connection of the two IGF-1 precursor chains by the triazole-containing moieties, and variation of its neighbouring sequences (Arg36 and Arg37), was tolerated in IGF-1R binding and its activation. These new synthetic IGF-1 analogs are unique examples of disulfide bonds’ rich proteins with intra main-chain triazole links. The methodology reported here also presents a convenient synthetic platform for the design and production of new analogs of this important human hormone with non-standard protein modifications. Ref.
