Abstract: This paper describes synthesis of the human trypsin inhibitor (HTI) by the solid phase method in which both stepwise and segment condensation are involved. TMSOTf-thioanisol/TFA have been used as the agent which cleaves HTIfrom the resin and removes all of the side chain protecting groups simultaneously. Crude HTIwas purified by affinity chromatography on anhydro- trypsinr sepharose and reverse phase HPLC, the total yield is 6.3%. The resulting product shows powerful trypsin inhibitory activity that near 97% of the activity of natural HTI.
