Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention includes a thioamide-modified peptide, wherein the thioamide modification increases the in vivo half-life of the peptide. The invention further includes methods of treating or preventing a disease or disorder in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject a thioamide-modified peptide of the invention.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A peptide comprising the thioamide-modified amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:2, or a salt or solvate thereof, wherein residue 1 of SEQ ID NO:2 is the N-terminus residue of the peptide. 2. A pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one peptide of claim 1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. 3. The composition of claim 2 , further comprising at least one additional agent useful for treating or preventing a disease or disorder in a subject. 4. The composition of claim 3 , wherein the disease or disorder comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of diabetes and obesity. 5. The peptide of claim 1 , wherein the C-terminus of the peptide is amidated. 6. The peptide of claim 1 , wherein the C-terminus of the peptide is esterified. 7. The peptide of claim 1 , wherein at least one NH group in the peptide backbone is methylated. 8. The peptide of claim 1 , wherein the N-terminus amino group is methylated or acetylated.
