Fmoc strategy
The Fmoc strategy is a method used in chemistry to assemble proteins and peptides by stacking building blocks one at a time. It involves protecting certain parts of these building blocks with an Fmoc group to prevent unwanted reactions. When ready to add each new piece, the Fmoc group is removed, allowing that piece to bond to the chain. This step-by-step process ensures precise construction of complex molecules, which is essential in drug development and biological research. The Fmoc strategy enhances control, efficiency, and purity in synthesizing peptides and proteins.
