Synthesis of bi-fluorescence-labeled lactoside: A substrate for continual assay of ceramide glycanase
摘要:
A bi-fluorescence labeled derivative suitable for analysis of ceramide glycanase activity was constructed from 4-pentenyl lactoside. Selective modification of the galactosyl residue was attained by formation of 4',6'-naphthylmethylidene derivative, which was followed by regioselective reductive ring opening. The aglycon was extended by Michael addition of 2-aminoethanetiol, and dansylated at the terminal amino group. Excitation of the naphthyl group results in emission from the dansyl group, while the emission from the naphthyl group is quenched by the dansyl group. Upon digestion with ceramide glycanase, the energy transfer is severed and a decrease in the dansyl emission concommitant with an increase in the naphthyl emission was observed. This substrate was successfully used to analyze ceramide glycanase activity.
