The osteogenic growth peptide (OGP) is a key factor in the mechanism of the systemic osteogenic response to local bone marrow injury. When administered in vivo, OGP stimulates osteogenesis and hematopoiesis. The C-terminal pentapeptide OGP(10-14) is the minimal amino acid sequence that retains the full OGP-like activity. Apparently, it is also the physiologic active form of OGP. Residues Tyr(10), Phe(12), Gly(13), and Gly(14) of OGP are essential for the OGP(10-14) activity. The present study explored the functional role of the peptide bonds, carboxyl and amino terminal groups, and conformational freedom in OGP(10-14). Transformations replacing the peptide bonds with surrogates such as Psi(CH(2)NH), Psi(CONMe), and Psi(CH(2)CH(2)) demonstrated that amide bonds do not contribute significantly to OGP(10-14) bioactivity. End-to-end cyclization yielded the fully bioactive cyclic pentapeptide c(Tyr-Gly-Phe-Gly-Gly). The retroinverso analogue c(Gly-Gly-phe-Gly-tyr), a cyclostereoisomer of c(Tyr-Gly-Phe-Gly-Gly), is at least as potent as the parent cyclic pentapeptide. The unique structure-activity relations revealed in this study suggest that the spatial presentation of the Tyr and Phe side chains has a major role in the productive interaction of OGP(10-14) and its truncated and conformationally constrained analogues with their cognate cellular target.
