(a) Partial Edman degradation of resin-bound peptide. PITC, phenylthioisocyanate; Fmoc-OSU, N-(9-Fluorenylmethoxycarbonyloxy) succinimide; M*, homoserine lactone. (b) A representative MALDI-TOF spectrum of PED products derived from a single bead carrying peptide cyclo(d-ala-fpa-d-pthr-pip-tyr- Arg-D-Ala). Procedure: Selected resin beads were pooled and subjected to PED in a single reaction vessel. The beads were suspended in 16 µl of pyridine/water (v/v 2:1) containing.1% triethylamine and mixed with an equal volume of pyridine containing 1.13 mg of Fmoc-OSu and 12 µl of PITC. The reaction was allowed to proceed for 6 min with mixing, and the beads were washed with DCM, and TFA. The beads were treated twice with 4µL of TFA for 6 min each. After the resin was washed with DCM, pyridine, and pyridine/water (2:1), the cycle was repeated 5 times. After the final cycle, the N-terminal Fmoc group was removed by 2% piperidine in DMF. For MS analysis, the degraded beads were treated with 5 µl of TFA containing NH 4 I (1 mg) and Me 2 S (2 µl) on ice for 3 min to reduce any oxidized Met. After washing with water, the beads were transferred into microcentrifuge tubes (1 bead/tube) and each treated with 2 µl of 7% TFA containing CNBr (4 mg/ml) overnight in the dark. The solvent was evaporated under vacuum, and the peptides were dissolved in 5 µl of.1% TFA in water. One µl of the peptide solution was mixed with 2 µl of saturated 4-hydroxy-alpha-cyanocinnamic acid in acetonitrile/.1% TFA (1:1), and 1µL of the mixture was spotted onto a MALDI sample plate. Mass spectrometry was performed at Campus Chemical Instrument Center of The Ohio State University on a Bruker III MALDI-TOF instrument in an automated manner. The data obtained were analyzed by Moverz software (Proteometrics LLC, Winnipeg, Canada). S3

Figure S5. Structure of FITC-labeled peptide F. Procedure: FITC-labeled peptides F-K were generated by first synthesizing the cyclic peptides with a C-terminal lysine. Each peptide was purified by reversed-phase HPLC on a C18 column, reacted for 1 h with 5 molar equivalents of FITC (Pierce, catalog #46425) in 5 mm sodium bicarbonate (ph 8.5)/DMSO mixture (v/v ration depended on the solubility of each peptide), and purified again by reversed-phase HPLC. The molecular mass of each peptide was confirmed by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometric analyses.
