H-(Gly)3-Lys(N3)-OH

The azide function is widely used for coupling to alkyne-containing fragments via the renowned Click reaction. Polyglycine fragments containing up to 7 glycines are reported to bind to surfaces and have potential application in nanotechnology constructs: constructs of Gly7-NHCH2-fragment containing peptides bind on mica surface in aqueous solution. It contains an azide group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing alkyne groups. It can also undergo ring strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) with molecules containing DBCO or BCN groups.
