Abstrakt: Chemical ubiquitination is an effective approach for accessing structurally defined, atypical ubiquitin (Ub) chains that are difficult to prepare by other techniques. Herein, we describe a strategy that uses a readily accessible premade isopeptide-linked 76-mer (isoUb), which has an N-terminal Cys and a C-terminal hydrazide, as the key building block to assemble atypical Ub chains in a modular fashion. This method avoids the use of auxiliary-modified Lys and instead employs the canonical and therefore more robust Cys-based native chemical ligation technique. The efficiency and capacity of this isoUb-based strategy is exemplified by the cost-effective synthesis of several linkage- and length-defined atypical Ub chains, including K27-linked tetra-Ub and K11/K48-branched tri-, tetra-, penta-, and hexa-Ubs.
