Synthesis of a glycomimetic oligonucleotide conjugate by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. 2011

Gwladys Pourceau, and Albert Meyer, and Jean-Jacques Vasseur, and François Morvan

A glycomimetic oligonucleotide conjugate bearing four galactose residues on a mannose core is -synthesized using oligonucleotide solid-phase synthesis and Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (CuAAC, or "click" chemistry). To achieve this purpose, new building blocks (including the solid support and phosphoramidites) are synthesized and used on a DNA synthesizer to generate a tetraalkyne oligonucleotide, which is then conjugated with a galactose azide derivative by click chemistry to afford the desired 3'-tetragalactosyl-mannose oligonucleotide conjugate. The procedures described in this chapter provide a general approach for the synthesis of novel glycoconjugates that can be immobilized to a DNA chip via DNA-directed immobilization to study, for example, their multivalent interactions with lectins in cellular targeting/uptake, etc.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008358 Mannose A hexose or fermentable monosaccharide and isomer of glucose from manna, the ash Fraxinus ornus and related plants. (From Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed & Random House Unabridged Dictionary, 2d ed) D-Mannose,Mannopyranose,Mannopyranoside,D Mannose
D009841 Oligonucleotides Polymers made up of a few (2-20) nucleotides. In molecular genetics, they refer to a short sequence synthesized to match a region where a mutation is known to occur, and then used as a probe (OLIGONUCLEOTIDE PROBES). (Dorland, 28th ed) Oligonucleotide
D002384 Catalysis The facilitation of a chemical reaction by material (catalyst) that is not consumed by the reaction. Catalyses
D002851 Chromatography, High Pressure Liquid Liquid chromatographic techniques which feature high inlet pressures, high sensitivity, and high speed. Chromatography, High Performance Liquid,Chromatography, High Speed Liquid,Chromatography, Liquid, High Pressure,HPLC,High Performance Liquid Chromatography,High-Performance Liquid Chromatography,UPLC,Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography,Chromatography, High-Performance Liquid,High-Performance Liquid Chromatographies,Liquid Chromatography, High-Performance
D003300 Copper A heavy metal trace element with the atomic symbol Cu, atomic number 29, and atomic weight 63.55. Copper-63,Copper 63
D004980 Ethane A two carbon alkane with the formula H3C-CH3.
D005690 Galactose An aldohexose that occurs naturally in the D-form in lactose, cerebrosides, gangliosides, and mucoproteins. Deficiency of galactosyl-1-phosphate uridyltransferase (GALACTOSE-1-PHOSPHATE URIDYL-TRANSFERASE DEFICIENCY DISEASE) causes an error in galactose metabolism called GALACTOSEMIA, resulting in elevations of galactose in the blood. D-Galactose,Galactopyranose,Galactopyranoside,D Galactose
D006031 Glycosylation The synthetic chemistry reaction or enzymatic reaction of adding carbohydrate or glycosyl groups. GLYCOSYLTRANSFERASES carry out the enzymatic glycosylation reactions. The spontaneous, non-enzymatic attachment of reducing sugars to free amino groups in proteins, lipids, or nucleic acids is called GLYCATION (see MAILLARD REACTION). Protein Glycosylation,Glycosylation, Protein
D006868 Hydrolysis The process of cleaving a chemical compound by the addition of a molecule of water.
D000478 Alkylation The covalent bonding of an alkyl group to an organic compound. It can occur by a simple addition reaction or by substitution of another functional group. Alkylations
