A covalent G-site inhibitor for glutathione S-transferase Pi (GSTP1-1)

We herein report the first covalent G-site-binding inhibitor for GST, GS-ESF (1), which irreversibly inhibited the GSTP1-1 function. LC-MS/MS and X-ray structure analyses of the covalently linked GST-inhibitor complex suggested that 1 reacted with Tyr108 of GSTP1-1. The mechanism of covalent bond formation was discussed based on MD simulation results.

Reversible covalent linkage of functional molecules

The present invention relates to the use of a compound containing a moiety of formula (I) as a reagent for linking a compound of formula R1—H which comprises a first functional moiety of formula F1 to a second functional moiety of fo

Dichloromaleimide (diCMI): A small and fluorogenic reactive group for use in affinity labeling

Chemical probes comprising a ligand moiety, a reactive group (e.g. epoxide, haloacetyl or photoreactive group) and a tag unit (e.g. fluorophore or radioisotope) are widely used in affinity labeling to identify the target proteins of bioactive molecules. However, design and synthesis of highly functionalized chemical probes are often time-consuming. In this paper, we propose a simple design strategy for chemical probes bearing a small 2,3-dichloromaleimide (diCMI) unit, which serves as a combined reactive group and tag unit by reacting with a nucleophilic lysine residue near the ligand-binding site of the target protein to generate the 2-amino-3-chloromaleimide fluorophore. Model ligand-protein experiments confirmed that the diCMI unit has suitable reactivity and fluorogenic capability for efficient affinity labeling.

Design, synthesis and preliminary biological evaluation of a biotin-s-s-phosphine reagent

Biotin-S-S-Phosphine was designed and synthesized as a potential tool for a proteomic study of O-GlcNAcmodified proteins. This reagent features a disulfide linker between a triarylphosphine moiety, which allows selective conjugation to azide-containing proteins, and a biotin moiety that can allow easy isolation through its strong affinity toward avidin-coated solid beads. The disulfide linkage within this reagent can allow the easy release of the bound molecules of interest, which is difficult to achieve when a biotin:avidin pair is used alone, by reducing the disulfide bond of the reagent with DTT. Preliminary in vitro biological assays with azidelabeled and unlabeled cell lysates and a pure protein Nup62 showed that the Biotin-S-S-Phosphine reagent is highly reactive toward the free thiol groups of proteins. When a molecular tool with a disulfide linker is applied to the enrichment of the molecules of interest from other species, it is important to block the free-thiols of the sample using exhaustive alkylation prior to the Staudinger ligation reactions to restore the bioorthogonal nature of this reaction.

Polar dibenzocyclooctynes for selective labeling of extracellular glycoconjugates of living cells

Although strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloadditions (SPAAC) have found wide utility in biological and material sciences, the low polarity and limited water solubility of commonly used cyclooctynes represent a serious shortcoming. To address this problem, an efficient synthetic route has been developed for highly polar sulfated dibenzocyclooctynylamides (S-DIBO) by a Friedel-Crafts alkylation of 1,2-bis(3-methoxyphenyl)ethylamides with trichlorocyclopropenium cation followed by a controlled hydrolysis of the resulting dichlorocyclopropenes to give bis(3-methoxyphenyl)cyclooctacyclopropenones, which were subjected to methoxy group removal of the phenols, O-sulfation, and photochemical unmasking of the cyclopropenone moiety. Accurate rate measurements of the reaction of benzyl azide with various dibenzylcyclooctyne derivatives demonstrated that aromatic substitution and the presence of the amide function had only a marginal impact on the rate constants. Biotinylated S-DIBO 8 was successfully used for labeling azido-containing glycoconjugates of living cells. Furthermore, it was found that the substitution pattern of the dibenzylcyclooctynes influences subcellular location, and in particular it has been shown that DIBO derivative 4 can enter cells, thereby labeling intra- and extracellular azido-modified glycoconjugates, whereas S-DIBO 8 cannot pass the cell membrane and therefore is ideally suited for selective labeling of cell surface molecules. The ability to selectively label cell surface molecules will yield unique opportunities for glycomic analysis and the study of glycoprotein trafficking.

Water soluble multi-biotin-containing compounds

Water-soluble discrete multi-biotin-containing compounds with at least three (3) biotin moieties are disclosed. The water-soluble biotin-containing compounds may additionally comprise one or more moieties that confer resistance to cleavage by biotinidase or that is cleavable in vitro or in vivo. The discrete multi-biotin-containing compounds may include a reactive moiety that provides a site for reaction with yet another moiety, such as a targeting, diagnostic or therapeutic functional moiety. Biotinylation reagents comprising water-soluble linker moieties are also disclosed and may additionally comprise a biotinidase protective group. Methods for amplifying the number of sites for binding biotin-binding proteins at a selected target using multi-biotin compounds also are disclosed.

Polyacrylamides bearing pendant α-sialoside groups strongly inhibit agglutination of erythrocytes by influenza virus: The strong inhibition reflects enhanced binding through cooperative polyvalent interactions

An ELISA assay is described for measuring the binding of influenza virus A-X31 to α-sialoside groups that are linked to biotin-labeled polyacrylamides. The efficacy of these polymers in inhibiting the adhesion of influenza virus to erythrocytes (as measured by a hemagglutination assay) was shown to be directly related to the binding affinity of the polymers for the viral surface: the differences in inhibitory efficacy among the polymeric inhibitors and monomeric α-methyl sialoside, among fractions of a polymeric, polyvalent inhibitor with narrow molecular weight ranges, and among polymeric inhibitors prepared by copolymerization or modification of a preformed polymer chain, all correlated with differences in the affinity of the inhibitors for the surface of the virus. The polymeric inhibitors studied had affinities for the viral surface that ranged between 103 and >106 greater than α-methyl sialoside, on the basis of total sialic acid groups in solution. The role of steric stabilization in the mechanism by which these polymers inhibit hemagglutination was investigated. The ability of the polymeric, polyvalent inhibitors to inhibit the binding of a polyclonal antibody to the viral surface suggests that steric stabilization may also be an important effect in this system.
