Abstract

AbstractTo compare the segregation ability of 1,4‐butanediol dimethacrylate‐crosslinked polystyrene (BDDMA‐PS) and divinylbenzene‐crosslinked polystyrene (DVB‐PS), a set of difficult sequence peptides characterized by high‐arithmetic‐average β‐sheet stabilizing potential (SPβ) and low‐stepwise arithmetic average random coil conformational parameter (Pc*) were synthesized on both supports (∼ 2 mmol Cl g−1) under identical conditions. The yield and purity of the peptides obtained from BDDMS‐PS resin were higher than from DVB‐PS resin. The synthetic efficiency of the new support was found to be its ability to suppress the aggregation of growing peptide chains by β‐sheet formation. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
