A Synthetic Divalent Cholera Toxin Glycocalix[4]arene Ligand Having Higher Affinity than Natural GM1 Oligosaccharide
摘要:
A high-affinity ligand of cholera toxin, the divalent glycocalix[4]arene 1, was obtained by exploiting a combination of structure-based design of glycomimetic monovalent ligands and affinity enhancements by multivalent presentation through a calix[4]arene scaffold. It exhibits a slightly higher affinity for the toxin than its natural ligand, the GM1 oligosaccharide.
