spectral characterization studies. In this way, the title compounds serve as fluorogens capable of detection of small thiols or appropriately sized dithiols. Recombinant alpha-helical proteins were then designed to bear two cysteine residues capable of regioselective dithiol addition reaction with the dimaleimide fluorogens, thus acting as spatially encoded substrates that form specifically labeled covalent
制备了一系列带有两个直接连接到荧光核的马来酰亚胺基团的芳香族化合物。所得衍生物在马来酰亚胺基团进行其典型的硫醇加成反应之前不会发出荧光,从而消除了它们淬灭荧光的能力,如动力学和光谱表征研究所示。以此方式,标题化合物用作能够检测小硫醇或适当大小的二硫醇的荧光剂。然后将重组 α 螺旋蛋白设计为带有两个半胱氨酸残基,能够与二马来酰亚胺荧光团进行区域选择性二硫醇加成反应,从而充当形成特定标记共价复合物的空间编码底物。
