The present inventors found cyclic peptide compounds that interact with Ras, and non-natural amino acids useful for the production of the cyclic peptide compounds. The inventors also found that the cyclic peptide compounds inhibit the binding between Ras and SOS. In addition, the inventors found specific non-natural amino acids contained in the cyclic peptide compounds and methods for production thereof.

The present invention relates to a method for preparing a biomaterial having selectively functionalized tyrosine, a biomaterial having selectively functionalized tyrosine, and a pharmaceutical composition containing the same as an active ingredient. The method for preparing a biomaterial to which a compound represented by formula 2 is coupled, of the present invention, allows the compound represented by formula 2 to be selectively coupled, in a high yield in a biomaterial, to tyrosine, which is present on the surface of an aqueous solution such that the coupling thereof to amino acids other than tyrosine does not occur and, when only one tyrosine is present, heterogeneous mixtures are not present and the inherent activity of the biomaterial is maintained, and thus the compound can be effectively used as a pharmaceutical composition containing a biomaterial drug as an active ingredient. In addition, the method can selectively functionalize tyrosine, and thus can be effectively used for tyrosine functionalization in a biomaterial.
