Chemical Synthesis of the Sec-To-Cys Homologue of Human Selenoprotein F and Elucidation of Its Disulfide-pairing Mode

Herein, we document a highly optimized synthesis of the Sec-to-Cys homologue of the human selenoprotein F (SelF) through a three-segment two-ligation semisynthesis strategy. Highlighted in this synthetic route are two one-pot manipulations, i.e. the first ligation followed by a desulfurization and t...
