A self-immobilizing and fluorogenic unnatural amino acid that mimics phosphotyrosine.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Synthesis of the first self-immobilizing, fluorogenic unnatural amino acid that mimics phosphotyrosine (pTyr) is reported. By using solid-phase peptide synthesis, it was subsequently incorporated into peptide-based probes which found applications in bioimaging and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS).

An unnatural amino acid that mimics phosphotyrosine.
By replacing the phosphate group in pTyr with an isoxazole carboxylic acid, a novel unnatural amino acid has been successfully synthesized. Subsequently, its incorporation into a known PPI (protein-protein interaction) inhibitor of STAT3 protein (ISS 610) generated I2 which showed reasonable anti-STAT3 activity in both fluorescence polarization and cell-proliferation experiments.

Caged phosphopeptides and phosphoproteins are valuable tools for dissecting the dynamic role of phosphorylation in complex signaling networks with temporal and spatial control. Demonstrating the broad scope of phosphoamino acid caging for studying signaling events, we report here the semisynthesis of a photolabile precursor to the cellular migration protein paxillin, which is a complex, multido...
متن کاملModified SH2 domain to phototrap and identify phosphotyrosine proteins from subcellular sites within cells.
Spatial regulation of tyrosine phosphorylation is important for many aspects of cell biology. However, phosphotyrosine accounts for less than 1% of all phosphorylated substrates, and it is typically a very transient event in vivo. These factors complicate the identification of key tyrosine kinase substrates, especially in the context of their extraordinary spatial organization. Here, we describ...
متن کاملA phosphotyrosine-containing quenched fluorogenic peptide as a novel substrate for protein tyrosine phosphatases.
Mca-Gly-Asp-Ala-Glu-Tyr(PO(3)H(2))-Ala- Ala-Lys(DNP)-Arg-NH(2), where Mca is (7-methoxycoumarin-4-yl)acetyl and DNP is 2,4-dinitrophenyl, was synthesized as a fluorogenic substrate for protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs). In the peptide, the fluorescent Mca group is quenched efficiently by the DNP group. Although the fluorescence intensity of the substrate was practically unchanged upon PTP-ca...
متن کاملA fluorogenic peptide probe developed by in vitro selection using tRNA carrying a fluorogenic amino acid.
A peptide that binds and emits fluorescence in response to conformational change in a target protein was developed by in vitro selection using tRNA carrying a fluorogenic amino acid. This technology could prove to be useful for the development of separation-free immunoassays and bio-imaging analyses.
