Unless otherwise indicated, reaction conditions were 100 μM substrate, 100 μM nucleophile, 10 μM SrtAstaph, 0/200 μM NiSO4, sortase reaction buffer (pH 7.5), glycerol (0.2% v/v), 6 h at room temperature. Substrates and nucleophiles contained either native carboxylic acids (−OH) or primary amides (−NH2) at their C-termini. Estimates of reaction progress were obtained by comparing RP-HPLC peak areas for the unreacted substrate peptide, ligation product, and hydrolysis by-product. All data points represent three independent experiments (mean ± standard deviation).
Data for the G-OH nucleophile reported for the 17 h timepoint.
Conditions: 50 μM substrate, 50 μM nucleophile, 10 μM SrtAstaph, 0/200 μM NiSO4, sortase reaction buffer (pH 7.5), glycerol (0.2% v/v), 3 h at room temperature.
