, p. 638 - 646 (2015)
In this article a series of divalent and trivalent carbohydrate mimetics on the basis of an enantiopure aminopyran and of serinol is described. These aminopolyols are connected by amide bonds to carboxylic acid derived spacer units either by Schotten-Baumann acylation or by coupling employing HATU as reagent. The O-sulfation employing the SO3·DMF complex was optimized. It was crucial to follow this process by 700 MHz 1H NMR spectroscopy to ensure full conversion and to use a refined neutralization and purification protocol. Many of the compounds could not be tested as L-selectin inhibitor by SPR due to their insolubility in water, nevertheless, a divalent and a trivalent amide showed surprisingly good activities with IC50 values in the low micromolar range.

The invention features a hybridized polynucleotide construct containing a passenger strand, a guide strand loadable into a RISC complex, and (i) a 3'-terminal or an internucleotide non-bioreversible group in the guide strand; or (ii) a 5'-terminal, a 3'-terminal, or an internucleotide non-bioreversible group in the passenger strand, and a 5'-terminal, a 3'-terminal, or an internucleotide disulfide bioreversible group in the guide strand or the passenger strand. The invention also features methods of delivering a polynucleotide to a cell using the hybridized polynucleotide construct. The invention further features methods of reducing the expression of a polypeptide in a cell using the hybridized polynucleotide construct.
