Synthesis of a biologically active fluorescent muramyl dipeptide congener
摘要:
A fluorescent-labeled muramyl dipeptide (MDP) has been prepared to probe immunoadjuvant cellular interactions. N-Acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine (1) was synthesized in improved yield and reacted with 2-(fluoresceinylamino)-4,6-dichloro-s-triazine (DTAF, 2) to give the fluorescent adduct DTAF-MDP (3), attached through the 6-position of the sugar moiety. Adjuvant activity was assessed by using two different in vitro assays, macrophage spreading, and inhibition of macrophage migration. Both assays indicated that the apparent adjuvant activity of 3 is comparable to that of 1.

Partial structures of peptidoglycan, a potent immunostimulating glycoconjugate of bacteria, were synthesized for precise biological studies. A key disaccharide glucosaminyl-β(1–4)-muramic acid was prepared by stereoselective glycosylation of a N-Troc (Troc=2,2,2-trichloroethoxycarbonyl) muramic acid acceptor with a N-Troc-glucosaminyl trichloroacetimidate. The disaccharide was converted to either a

The 6-aminohexyl beta-glycoside of N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine and its spacer-arm-linked analog (3.8 nm) were synthesized from 2-methyl-(3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-1,2-dideoxy-alpha-D-glucopyrano)-[2,1-d]-2- oxazoline, and coupled with meningococcalgroupCpolysaccharide in attempts to enhance the immunogenicity of the polysaccharide antigen.

Pig liver esterase (PLE) catalyzed hydrolysis of dimethyl and diethyl 2-methyl-2-(o-nitrophenoxy)malonates affords (R)-monoethyl/monomethyl 2-methyl-2-(o-nitrophenoxy)malonates in moderate to good enantiomeric excesses (69–81 %). These data indicate that the nitro group may be accommodated in the large hydrophobic pocket of the Jones active-site model of PLE.
