Glycolipids are important structural components of biological membranes and perform crucial functions in living systems, including signaling transduction and interaction with extracellular environment. However, the mechanistic exploration of glycolipids in vivo is challenging because they are not genetically encoded. Herein, we designed and synthesized a series of bifunctional monogalactosyldiacylglycerol
糖脂是生物膜的重要结构成分,在生命系统中起着至关重要的作用,包括信号转导和与细胞外环境的相互作用。然而,体内糖脂的机械探索是具有挑战性的,因为它们不是遗传编码的。在本文中,我们通过在脂肪族链上引入重氮基和末端炔基部分,设计并合成了一系列双功能单半乳糖基二酰基甘油(MGDG)探针作为模型。结合蛋白质组分析和分子建模,我们已证明MGDG通过拮抗TLR4减轻炎症。
