One-pot fluorescent labeling of saccharides with fluorescein-5-thiosemicarbazide for imaging polysaccharides transported in living cells
摘要:
A simple and efficient procedure for the fluorescent labeling of saccharides is a prerequisite step for imaging the transport of polysaccharides in living cells. We report a one-pot strategy for the fluorescent labeling of saccharides with fluorescein-5-thiosemicarbazide (FTSC), which introduces the thiosemicarbazide group of FTSC to the aldehyde group at the reducing end of saccharides to form stable amino derivatives via reductive amination. The Glc-FTSC derivative was characterized by HPLC-MS, HRESIMS and NMR spectroscopy. Saccharides were quantitatively labeled with FTSC at 75 degrees C for 1 h under optimum reaction conditions. Fluorescence studies illustrated that the conjugation of FTSC to saccharides did not change its florescence properties (lambda(ex) = 495 nm, lambda(em) = 517 nm), presenting desirable compatibility with commonly used fluorescence equipment. Polysaccharide AAG-FTSC derivatives exhibited rather low levels of cytotoxicity against rat thymus cells, and the fluorescent labeling procedure had slight impact on their anti-tumor activity. Results indicate that the assay neither introduces discernible cytotoxicity against living cells nor obviously alters the functional activities of polysaccharides, and provides a convenient, highly efficient fluorescent labeling approach for imaging the transport of polysaccharides in living cells.

The present invention relates to a method for site-selective coupling of a first agent to a second agent, comprising the steps of: contacting a first agent comprising at least one furan moiety with an activation signal and with a second agent comprising at least one hydrazine moiety or at least one hydroxylamine moiety, thereby activating said furan moiety to an activated furan moiety; and reacting said activated furan moiety with the hydrazine moiety or the hydroxylamine moiety, thereby site-selectively coupling said first agent to said second agent.

substance. With the synthesized fluorescent tylosin derivatives, the dissociation constants for ribosome complexes with several known antibiotics and macrolide analogs previously obtained were determined. It was found that the fluorescent tylosin derivatives containing BODIPY FL and NBD groups could be used to screen the binding of novel antibiotics to bacterial ribosomes in the macrolide-binding site

late-stage functionalization (LSF) of peptides represents a valuable strategy for the design of potent peptide pharmaceuticals by enabling rapid exploration of chemical diversity and offering novel opportunities for peptide conjugation. While the C(sp2 )-H activation of tryptophan (Trp) is well documented, the resurgence of radical chemistry is opening new avenues for the C-H functionalization of other
chemoselective ligation methodology has been developed for the facile construction of peptide‐based fluorescent probes. Furan‐containing peptides were activated by singlet oxygen and covalently engaged by nitrogen nucleophiles to yield stable conjugates. Singlet oxygen was compatible with sensitive amino acid residues within the peptides and a range of fluorophores, bearing different functionalities, were successfully
