Syntheses of sphingosine-1-phosphate stereoisomers and analogues and Their interaction with EDG receptors
摘要:
Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is considered to be an important regulator of diverse biological processes acting as a natural ligand to EDG receptors. As a preliminary study to develop potent and selective agonist and antagonist for EDG receptors, we report synthesis of S1P stereoisomers and analogues and their binding affinities to EDG-1, -3, and -5.

A novel method for the synthesis of chiral alpha-amino acids has been developed where the acid functionality was constructed by oxidizing a hydroxymethyl group introduced by Evans' method in the alpha-position of an appropriate acid substrate and the amino part came from the amide of the original carboxyl group following a modified Hofmann rearrangement reaction.
