Six, heretofore undescribed, $5^I-Methyl-5^I-(5-Substituted uracil-1-ylmethyl)-2^I-oxo-3^I-methylenetetrahydrofurans(F, Cl, Br, l, CH_3, H)(6a-f)$were synthesized and evaluated against three cell lines (FM-3A, P-388 and U-937). For the preparation of .alpha.-methylene-.gamma.-butyrolactone bearing 5-substituted uracils (6a-f), the effcient Reformatsky type reaction was employed which involves the treatment of ethyl .alpha.(bromomethyl) acrylate and zinc with the respective 5-substituted uracil-1-ylacetones (5a-f). The acetone derivatives (5a-f) were directly obtained by the respective alkylation reaction of 5-substituted uracils with chloroacetone in the presence of $K_{2}$$CO_{3}$(or NaH). These lactone compounds 6a-f exhibited moderate to significant activity in all of the three cell lines, and 6b, 6c and 6e showed significant antitumor activities (inhibitory concentrations ($IC_{50}$) ranged from 1.3-3.8 .mu.g/ml.

혈액 내 순환시 안정성 향상과 면역원성의 감소를 위해, rhIFN-${\alpha}$-2a은 N-terminus의 ${\alpha}$-아민기에 mPEG aldehyde를 solid-phase PEGylation 시킨다. CM-Sepharose와 같은 양이온 교환수지가 고체 지지체로 사용되었다. Mono-PEGylate는 양이온 교환 수지에서 unmodified 단백질과 분리되어 용출된다. Site-srecific PEGylation과 mono-PEGylate의 분리가 한 단계의 공정으로 얻어진다는 점은 solid-phase PEGylation의 이점을 뒷받침해준다. 위치 특이성은 peptide digest의 질량 분석과 Edman degradation을 이용한 N-terminal sequencing에 의해 확인하였다. Mono-PEGylate는 항바이러스 활성과 면역원성의 감소를 나타내고, 감소 정도는 결합되는 mPEG의 분자량에 비례한다. Trypsin 저항성과 온도 안정성은 mono-PEGylation에 의해 두드러지게 개선되었다. Solid-phase PEGylation을 통해 종래의 액상 반응에서 나타날 수 있는 재현성 낮은 반응, 부 반응물 생성, 부 반응물 제거 공정 등의 단점을 극복할 수 있었다. 그러나 solid-phase PEGylation의 문제점인 액상 반응에 비교하여 많은 양의 PEG를 사용하여야 한다는 점은 개선되어야 한다.

융합단백질의 절단을 위해 EK를 고정화하여 액상 절단반응과 같은 80％의 절단수율을 얻을 수 있었다. 그리고 니켈 친화칼럼을 이용하여 간단한 정제공정을 구축하였다. 공유결합한 EK의 경우 니켈친화 결합한 EK보다 높은 재접힘 수율을 나타내었고 풀림과 재접힘을 이용하여 효소의 초기 활성을 회복함에 따라서 반복사용을 통한 경제적인 절단공정을 구축할 수 있게 되었다. 그러나 고정화 과정에서 효소의 활성이 감소하는 문제점과 고정화 수율을 높이기 위한 연구가 필요하다.

Search for a new $\alpha$-methylene-$\gamma$-butyrolactone-bearing 6-substituted purine as a potental antitumor agent has led to synthesize seven, hitherto unreported, $5^1$-Methyl-$5^1$-[(6-substituted-9H-purin-9-yl)methyl]-$2^1$-oxo-$3^1$- methylenetetrahydrofurans (H, Cl, l, $CH_3$, $NH_2$, SH, >C=O) (6a-g). These include $5^1$-Methyl-$5^1$-[(9H-purin-9-yl)methyll-$2^1$-oxo-$3^1$ -methylenetetrahydrofurans (6a), $5^1$-Methyl-$5^1$-[(6-chloro-9H-purin-9-yl)methyl]-$2^1$-oxo-$3^1$-methylenetetrahydr ofurans (6b), $5^1$-Methyl-$5^1$-[(6-chloro-9H-purin-9-yl) methyl]-$2^1$-oxo-$3^1$-methylenetetrahydrofurans (6c), $5^1$-Methyl-$5^1$-[(6-methyl-9H-purin-9-yl) methyl]-$2^1$-oxo-$3^1$-methylenetetrahydrofurans (6d), $5^1$-Methyl-$5^1$-[(9H-adenin-9-yl)methyll-$2^1$-oxo-$3^1$-methylenetetrahydrofurans (6e), $5^1$-Methyl-$5^1$-[(6-mercapto-9H-purin-9-yl) methyl]-$2^1$-oxo-$3^1$-methylenetetrahydrofurans (6f) and $5^1$-Methyl-$5^1$-[(9H-hypoxanthin-9-yl)methyll-$2^1$-oxo-$3^1$-methylenetetrahydrof urans (6g) which were made by the Reformatsky-type reaction of ethyl $\alpha$-(bromomethyl) acrylate with the corresponding (6-substituted-9H-purin-9-yl)-2-propanone intermediates (5a-g). These ketone intermediates 5a-g, 1-(9H-purin-9-yl)-2-propanone (5a), 1-(6-chloro-9H-purin-9-yl)-2-propanone (5b), 1-(6-iodo-9H-purin-9-yi)-2-propanone (5c), 1-(6-methyl-9H-purin-9-yl)-2-propanone (5d), 1-(9H-adenin-9-yl)-2-propanone (Se), 1-(6-mercapto-9H-purin-9-yl)-2-propanone (5f), and 1-(9H-hypoxanthin-9-yl)-2-propanone (5g) were directly obtained by the alkylation of the 6-substituted purine bases with the chloroacetone in the presence of $K_2$$CO_3$ (or NaH) under DMF (or DMSO). The preliminary in vitro cytotoxcity assay for the synthetic .alpha.-methylene-y-butyro-lactone compounds (6a-g) were determined against three cell lines (PM-3A, P-388, and K-562) and showed the moderate antitumor activity ($IC_50$ ranged from 1.4 to 4.3 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) with the compound $5^1$-methyl-$5^1$ -[(9H-hypoxanthin-9-yl)methyl]-$2^1$-oxo-$3^1$-methylenetetrahydrofuran (6g) showing the least antitumor activity.
