Direct radiolabelling of proteins at cysteine using [18F]-fluorosugars.

چکیده
A strategy for the site-specific attachment of 2-deoxy-2-fluorosugars to cysteine and dehydroalanine tagged proteins is reported. When combined with thionation of fluorosugars, such as the widely available (18)F probe 2-deoxy-2-[(18)F]fluoroglucose ([(18)F]FDG), this methodology allows fast and direct access to site-specific [(18)F]FDG-labelled proteins.

Refolding Process of Cysteine-Rich Proteins: Chitinase as a Model
Background: Recombinant proteins overexpressed in E. coli are usually deposited in inclusion bodies. Cysteines in the protein contribute to this process. Inter- and intra- molecular disulfide bonds in chitinase, a cysteine-rich protein, cause aggregation when the recombinant protein is overexpressed in E. coli. Hence, aggregated proteins should be solubilized and allowed to refold to obtain nat...
متن کاملAutomation of [18F]fluoroacetaldehyde synthesis: application to a recombinant human interleukin‐1 receptor antagonist (rhIL‐1RA)
[(18) F]Fluoroacetaldehyde is a biocompatible prosthetic group that has been implemented pre-clinically using a semi-automated remotely controlled system. Automation of radiosyntheses permits use of higher levels of [(18) F]fluoride whilst minimising radiochemist exposure and enhancing reproducibility. In order to achieve full-automation of [(18) F]fluoroacetaldehyde peptide radiolabelling, a c...
متن کاملPreliminary biological evaluation of ¹⁸F-FBEM-Cys-Annexin V a novel apoptosis imaging agent.
A novel annexin V derivative (Cys-Annexin V) with a single cysteine residue at its C-terminal has been developed and successfully labeled site-specifically with 18F-FBEM. 18F-FBEM was synthesized by coupling 18F-fluorobenzoic acid (18F-FBA) with N-(2-aminoethyl)maleimide using optimized reaction conditions. The yield of 18F-FBEM-Cys-Annexin V was 71.5% ± 2.0% (n = 4, based on the starting 18F-F...
متن کاملOptimising the radiolabelling properties of technetium tricarbonyl and His-tagged proteins
BACKGROUND To date, the majority of protein-based radiopharmaceuticals have been radiolabelled using non-site-specific conjugation methods, with little or no control to ensure retained protein function post-labelling. The incorporation of a hexahistidine sequence (His-tag) in a recombinant protein can be used to site-specifically radiolabel with 99mTc-tricarbonyl ([99mTc(CO)3]+). This chemistry...
متن کاملAcylation of the Type 3 Secretion System Translocon Using a Dedicated Acyl Carrier Protein
Bacterial pathogens often deliver effectors into host cells using type 3 secretion systems (T3SS), the extremity of which forms a translocon that perforates the host plasma membrane. The T3SS encoded by Salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI-1) is genetically associated with an acyl carrier protein, IacP, whose role has remained enigmatic. In this study, using tandem affinity purification, we i...
