Abstract
- Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα) is a multifunctional cytokine associated with inflammation, immune responses, and autoimmune diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and psoriasis. In the present study, we performed in vitro selection, systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) against human TNFα from mRNA-displayed peptide library prepared with Escherichia coli -reconstituted cell-free transcription/translation system (PURE system) and cyclized by N -chloroacetyl- N -methyl- d -phenylalanine incorporated by genetic code expansion (sense suppression). We identified a novel TNFα-binding thioether-cyclized peptide that contains an N -methyl- d -phenylalanine. Since cyclic structure and presence of an N -methyl- d -amino acid can increase proteolytic stability, the TNFα binding peptide has potential to be used for therapeutic, research and diagnostic applications. • Reconstituted cell-free transcription/translation system (PURE system) was prepared. • Chloroacetyl N -methyl- d -phenylalanine was incorporated by genetic code expansion. • mRNA-displayed unnatural cyclic peptide having N -methyl- d -amino acid was prepared. • Systematic Evolution of Ligands by EXponential enrichment (SELEX) was performed. • A novel TNFα-binding cyclic peptide having N -methyl- d -amino acid was discovered.
