Synthesis of Novel Linear Multivalent Peptide Ligands Based on the Tetrapeptide MSH(4)

This thesis describes the synthesis of a novel multimeric peptide ligand targeted to the human melanocortin 4 receptor. The synthesis of the peptide was attempted both by solid phase peptide synthesis and by solution phase peptide synthesis, leading to the conclusion that the necessary C- and N- ter...
