Divalent ligands were prepared as inhibitors for the adhesion protein of the problematic Pseudomonas aeruginosa pathogen. Bridging two binding sites enables simultaneous binding of two galactose moieties, which strongly enhances binding. An alternating motif of glucose and triazole and aryl groups was shown to have the right mix of rigidity, solubility, and ease of synthesis. Spacers were varied with respect to the core unit as well as the aglycon portions in an attempt to optimize dynamics and enhance interactions with the protein. Affinities of the divalent ligands were measured by ITC, and Kd's as low as 12 nM were determined, notably for a compounds with either a rigid (phenyl) or flexible (butyl) unit at the core. Introducing a phenyl aglycon moiety next to the galactoside ligands on both termini did indeed lead to a higher enthalpy of binding, which was more than compensated by entropic costs. The results are discussed in terms of thermodynamics and theoretical calculations of the expected and observed multivalency effects.
