Abstract  

The ComX pheromone precursor peptide of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens Q-426 quorum sensing system was successfully synthesized by Fmoc solid-phase synthesis method, and then isolated and purified by semi preparative chromatography (RP-HPLC) and liquid chromatography (HPLC-MS). A new method for the determination of free amino groups was established, and the effects of swelling process and reaction temperature on the degree of substitution were also investigated. The results showed that the traditional Kaiser reagent for the detection of free amino Fmoc in solid-phase synthesis can be replaced by the NNA reagent (ninhydrin + N-butanol + acetic acid solution). And the resins have the highest substitution degree after they were alternate swelling by DCM and DMF for 1h at 35℃. The product yield and the purity of the crude precursor peptide of ComX pheromone is 98% and 58.60% respectively. And the purity of the precursor peptide of ComX pheromone is 99% after being purified by semi preparative high performance liquid. Antibacterial experiments showed that the precursor peptide of ComX pheromone had obvious biological activity.
