Synthesis of Hybrid Lipid Probes: Derivatives of Phosphatidylethanolamine-Extended Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-Bisphosphate (Pea-PIP2)
摘要:
The total asymmetric synthesis of a novel hybrid lipid possessing a 2,3-diacylthreitol backbone, rather than a 1,2-diacylglycerol backbone, is described. The title compound, Pea-PIP2, possesses a phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) headgroup at the 1-position and a phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (Ptdlns(4,5)P-2) headgroup, at the 4-position. Reporters (biotin, fluorophores, spin label) were covalently attached to the free amino group of the PE, such that these reporters were targeted to the lipid-water interface. The diacyl moieties allow incorporation of Pea-PIP2 into a lipid bilayer, while the PtdIns(4,5)P-2 moiety in the aqueous layer was specifically recognized by PtdIns(4,5)P-2-specific binding proteins.

A new [2 + 2 + 2] approach to construct GPI molecules through the efficient synthesis of glucosamine-inositol and tetramannose intermediates led to a total synthesis of a GPI-anchor of Trypanosoma cruzi, and also afforded a key intermediate for the synthesis of valuable [4-deoxy-Man-III]-GPI analogues.
Helicobacterpylori is a common cause of gastroduodenal inflammatory diseases such as chronic gastritis and peptic ulcers and also an important factor in gastric carcinogenesis. Recent reports have demonstrated that bacterial inflammatory processes, such as stimulation with H. pylorilipopolysaccharide (LPS), initiate atherosclerosis. To establish the structures responsible for the inflammatory response

An efficient catalytic one-pot synthesis of TBDMS-protected diacylglycerols has been developed, starting from enantiopure glycidol. Subsequent migration-free deprotection leads to stereo- and regiochemically pure diacylglycerols. This novel strategy has been applied to the synthesis of a major Mycobacterium tuberculosis phospholipid, its desmethyl analogue, and platelet activating factor.

1‐palmitoyl‐2‐oleoyl‐sn‐glycerol (PO) lipids varied by as much as 32‐fold within the same series of headgroups. These results demonstrate that membrane leakage from GMGT lipids is less influenced by headgroup structure, making it possible to tailor the structure of the polar headgroups on GMGT lipids while retaining predictable leakage properties of membranes comprised of these tethered lipids.
ABSTRACT: Phosphoethanolamine derivatives of the bacterial saccharide l-glycero-d-manno-heptose have been prepared using a phosphoramidite-based coupling reaction at position 4 of a side-chain-protected 2,3-O-orthoester methyl heptoside and at position 3 of a 3,4-diol heptoside, respectively. Global deprotection afforded the corresponding 2-aminoethylphosphodiester derivatives as substrates for crystallographic
