Carriers for nucleotide 5'-triphosphate. 2. Liquid membrane and liposome transport
摘要:
We describe a series of new cationic carriers for the transport of nucleotide 5'-triphosphates across liquid organic membranes. The tetracationic compound 5, with two diquaternary 1,4-diaza[2.2.2]bicyclooctane (DABCO) units, forms carrier-nucleotide complexes of 1:1 stoichiometry in dichloromethane and strongly accelerates nucleotide transport across this solvent. As a result of a favorable balance of hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity, complexes of 5 do not leak out of the organic phase into the aqueous source or receiving phases. Liposome transport studies demonstrate that caution is strongly advised when extrapolating from liquid membrane studies to the transport across liposomes or cell membranes. The DABCO-based cationic carriers do not mediate specific nucleotide transport across the liposome walls but rather act as detergents to break the liposomal structure.
