Abstract

We report a proximity-enhanced method to synthesize a peptide flanked by two different oligonucleotide handles. Our method relies on sequential bioorthogonal reactions, and partial hybridization of the second handle to the first. We demonstrate the synthesis of a protease-responsive DNA “latch” and a cyclic bioactive peptide using this method.
