Lipopeptides, peptides modified with lipid residues which are preferentially bound at the thiol function of cysteine or at the a-amino group of N-terminal amino acids. The a-subunits of heteromeric G proteins and non-tyrosine receptor kinases contain N-myristoylated N-terminal glycine residues together with S-palmitoylation of a neighboring cysteine residue. Lipid moieties are necessary to recruit and anchor peptides and proteins to the membrane. Furthermore, it has been postulated that lipidation of proteins represents an event in signal transduction. The synthesis of lipid-modified peptides is not easy to perform as all coupling and deprotection reactions must be carried out under very mild conditions [S. Moffet et al., EMBO J. 1993, 12, 349 D. Kadereit et al., Chem. Fur./. 2001, 7,1184].
