Synthesis of a Glycosylphosphatidylinositol Anchor Bearing Unsaturated Lipid Chains
摘要:
A GPI anchor bearing unsaturated fatty acid lipid chains (1) was synthesized by a highly convergent strategy employing the para-methoxybenzyl group for permanent hydroxyl protection. The final global deprotection was achieved by an efficient three-step, one-pot procedure to give an 81% isolated yield of the target structure.

Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors are a group of complex glycolipids that attach extracellular proteins and glycoproteins to the eukaryotic cell outer membrane. To better understand GPI anchorage, it is necessary to have access to homogeneous, structurally defined, and functionalized GPIs and GPI analogs. In this regard, chemical synthesis is necessary, as GPIanchors are rather scarce and

A bifunctional derivative of the core structure of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors having a clickable alkynyl group and a photoreactive diazirine group attached to the GPI glucosamine and lipid moieties, respectively, was synthesized from myo-inositol, d-glucosamine, and (R)-1,2-O-acetonized glycerol. The target molecule should be useful for the investigation of GPI-interacting components
