Metabolic Glycan Imaging by Isonitrile–Tetrazine Click Chemistry

چکیده
Seeing the sugar coating: N-Acetyl-glucosamine and mannosamine derivatives tagged with an isonitrile group are metabolically incorporated into cell-surface glycans and can be detected with a fluorescent tetrazine. This bioorthogonal isonitrile-tetrazine ligation is also orthogonal to the commonly used azide-cyclooctyne ligation, and so will allow simultaneous detection of the incorporation of two different sugars.

The implementation of bio-orthogonal click chemistries is a topic of growing importance in the field of biomaterials, as it is enabling the development of increasingly complex hydrogel materials capable of providing dynamic, cell-instructive microenvironments. Here, we introduce the tetrazine-norbornene inverse electron demand Diels-Alder reaction as a new cross-linking chemistry for the format...
متن کاملImaging Cell Surface Glycosylation in Vivo Using “Double Click” Chemistry
Dynamic alterations in cell surface glycosylation occur in numerous biological processes that involve cell-cell communication and cell migration. We report here imaging of cell surface glycosylation in live mice using double click chemistry. Cell surface glycans were metabolically labeled using peracetylated azido-labeled N-acetylgalactosamine and then reacted, in the first click reaction, with...
متن کاملMetabolic remodeling of bacterial surfaces via tetrazine ligations.
Bioorthogonal click ligations are extensively used for the introduction of functional groups in biological systems. Tetrazine ligations are attractive in that they are catalyst-free and display favorable kinetics. We describe the efficient remodeling of bacterial cell surfaces using unnatural d-amino acids derivatized with tetrazine ligation handles. The metabolic incorporation of these unnatur...
متن کامل18F-Based Pretargeted PET Imaging Based on Bioorthogonal Diels–Alder Click Chemistry
A first-of-its-kind (18)F pretargeted PET imaging approach based on the bioorthogonal inverse electron demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) reaction between tetrazine (Tz) and trans-cyclooctene (TCO) is presented. As proof-of-principle, a TCO-bearing immunoconjugate of the anti-CA19.9 antibody 5B1 and an Al[(18)F]NOTA-labeled tetrazine radioligand were harnessed for the visualization of CA19.9-expressing...
