TNFR1-associated death domain protein (TRADD) with arginine N-GlcNAcylation is a novel and structurally unique posttranslational modification (PTM) glycoprotein that blocks the formation of death-inducing signaling complex (DISC), orchestrating host nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling in entero-pathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC)-infected cells. This particular glycosylated modification plays an extremely vital role for the effective colonization and pathogenesis of pathogens in the gut. Herein we describe the total synthesis of TRADD death domain (residues 195–312) with arginine235 N-GlcNAcylation (Arg-GlcNAc TRADD (195–312)). Two longish peptidyl fragments of the wild-type primary sequence were obtained by robust, microwave-assisted, highly efficient, solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), the N-GlcNAcylated sector was built by total synthesis and attached specifically to resin-bound peptide with an unprotected ornithine residue via silver-promoted on-resin guanidinylation, Arg-GlcNAc TRADD (195–312) was constructed by hydrazide-based native chemical ligation (NCL). The facile synthetic strategy is expected to be generally applicable for the rapid synthesis of other proteins with Arg-GlcNAc modification and to pave the way for the related chemically biological study.

Eleven glycosyl coumarylthiazole derivatives are synthesized by cyclization and condensation of glycosyl thiourea with 3-bromoacetyl coumarins in ethanol. The reaction conditions are optimized and good yields of products (80%–95%) are obtained. The structures of all new products were confirmed by IR, 1H and 13C NMR, and by HRMS (electrospray ionization). The in vitro acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activities of these new compounds are tested by Ellman’s method. Among them, N-(2-acetamido-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-(6-nitrocoumarinyl)-1,3-thiazole-2-amine showed the best activity with an in vitro AChE inhibitory rate of 58% and an IC50 value of 12 ± 0.38 μg/mL.

Eight glycosyl benzoxazole derivatives are synthesized by nucleophilic addition reactions of glycosyl isothiocyanate with o-aminophenol in tetrahydrofuran. The reaction conditions are optimized, and good yields (86%–94%) were obtained. The structures of all new products are confirmed by infrared, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance, and high-resolution mass spectrometry (electrospray ionization). In addition, the in vitro cholinesterase inhibitory activities of these new compounds are tested by Ellman’s method.
