Alkyl derivatives of glucose, galactose and fructose were acylated by lipase-catalyzed transesterification with alkanoic esters. The best results were obtained with immobilized Upases of the Candida antarctica type. Primary alcohol functions were acylated first, followed by secondary ones depending on the structure of the glycoside.

The water activity in the reaction medium had a striking effect on both the rate and the selectivity of the process. The size and orientation of the alkyl substituent and the structure of the acyl acceptor were also found to exert a profound influence on the course of the reaction.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate the formation of acylated impurity resulting from a chemical reaction between the growth hormone-releasing peptide-6 (GHRP-6) and poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) and the effect of peptide acylation on the in vivo biological activity of GHRP-6. The peptide acylation pattern of GHRP-6 by hydrophilic PLGA polymers with different molecular weights was characterized by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Higher levels of acylated GHRP-6 were produced with the higher molecular weight PLGA, which might be due to the slower degradation rate of the polymer. The evaluation of the biological activity in rats showed that the acylated GHRP-6 had a much lower activity than the intact GHRP-6. This finding suggests that the acylation reaction would decrease the effectiveness of the GHRP-6 formulation such as PLGA microspheres. There-fore, a strategy for stabilizing the GHRP-6 will be necessary for the development of a successful formulation of PLGA microspheres. Published: June 8, 2007  相似文献

Eight α-N-acyl colistin nonapeptide derivatives including three aliphatic, four aromatic and one alicyclic derivatives were synthesized by the reaction of colistin nonapeptide with corresponding acid chlorides. This acylation reaction was carried out under the condition kept restrictedly at pH 5,0 in order to introduce an acyl group only to α-amino group but not to γ-amino group existing in a colistin nonapeptide molecule. Synthetic method and several physico-chemical natures of these acyl colistin nonapeptide derivatives are given in this paper.

All of the acylated derivatives thus synthesized exhibited characteristic antimicrobial activities. Antimicrobial spectra were substantially based upon a gram-negative type and not so much altered by chemical structures of acyl groups which were considerably differentiated from each other such as cyclic or chain form. Thus, more possible response of carbon size than its structure to the antimicrobial effectiveness was inferred. In spite of almost no toxicity and feeble antimicrobial activity of colistin nonapeptide itself, these acylated colistin nonapeptide derivatives showed a toxicity against mice at a dose of 16.9~70 mg/kg in LD50, which, however, was inferior to the toxicity of colistin sulfate, possibly correspondent to their much weaker antimicrobial activities, as a whole. Hence, it seems likely that acyl part of these acylated colistin nonapeptide derivatives including that of colistin is seriously responsible for the biological activities.  相似文献

PNA type I monomer backbone with a reduced peptide bond was synthesized on a Merrifield resin in Mitsunobu reaction of Boc-aminoethanol with resin-bound o-nitrobenzenesulfonylglycine. The pseudodipeptide secondary amine group was deprotected by thiolysis and acylated with thymin-1-ylacetic acid. The monomer was released as a methyl ester. The procedure seems to be of general applicability and allows various modifications of PNA structure by using diverse alcohols and amino acid esters.  相似文献

Autoacylation of myelin proteolipid protein with acyl coenzyme A   总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7  
Rat brain myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) is known to contain long chain, covalently bound fatty acids. In the course of characterizing the mechanism of acylation, we found that the isolated PLP, in the absence of any membrane fraction, was esterified after incubation with [3H]palmitoyl coenzyme A (CoA). This observation demonstrated that the protein acts as both an acylating enzyme and an acceptor. Thus, acylation occurs by an autocatalytic process. The possibility of a separate acyltransferase that copurifies with PLP was essentially excluded by adding brain subcellular fractions to the reaction mixtures and by changing the isolation procedure. After deacylation, the protein was acylated at a 4-fold greater rate, suggesting that the original sites were reacylated. The palmitoyl-CoA concentration followed Michaelis kinetics, confirming that spontaneous acylation was not occurring. Pulse-chase experiments indicated that the reaction entails net addition of acyl groups. Although fatty acids are bound via an O-ester linkage, free SH groups are required in the reaction. Denaturation of the protein by sodium dodecyl sulfate or heat inhibits the reaction, whereas cerulenin has little or no effect. PO, the major protein in peripheral nerve myelin, is also an acylated protein, but it was not labeled upon incubation of either peripheral myelin or the isolated protein with [3H]palmitoyl-CoA, demonstrating that it is acylated by a different route. Several synthetic peptides derived from PLP sequences with sites known to be acylated in vivo as well as a series of deacylated PLP tryptic peptides were not labeled, indicating that integrity of the protein is required for acylation. Limited proteolysis and peptide mapping showed that the same sites are acylated in vitro or in vivo, suggesting that the autocatalytic acylation reaction is physiological.  相似文献

Sugar orthoesters with complex alcohols were obtained in high yield in the reaction of acylated 1,2-cis-glycosyl halides with partially protected sugar derivatives in the presence of silver nitrate and 2,4,6-trimethylpyridine in dry acetonitrile. The reaction has been shown to proceed by way of the acylated 1,2-trans-glycosyl nitrate intermediate.  相似文献

To investigate the effect of the ceramide moiety of GM1 ganglioside on its association with detergent resistant membrane domains (DRMs) in human leukemia HL-60 cells, [(3)H] labeled GM1 molecular species (GM1s) with ceramides consisting of C18 sphingosine acetylated or acylated with C(8), C(12), C(14), C(16), C(18), C(22), C(24), C(18:1), C(22:1), or C(24:1) fatty acids (FAs), or C20 sphingosine acetylated or acylated with C(8) or C(18) FA were prepared and added to culture media. GM1s uptake by HL-60 cells was affected by the structure of their ceramides. Resistance to removal with trypsin and the stoichiometry of [(125)I] cholera toxin (CT) binding indicated that the added GM1s were incorporated into the membranes of the cells used for the isolation of DRMs in a manner resembling endogenous gangliosides. The ceramide moieties of the GM1s determined their occurrence in DRMs and the dependence of their recovery in this membrane fraction on the amount of Triton X-100 (TX) used for extraction as well as on cholesterol depletion. The GM1s with sphingosine acylated with C(14), C(16), C(18) C(22), or C(24) FAs were similarly abundant in DRMs. GM1s acylated with C(18:1), C(22:1), or C(24:1) were less abundant than those acylated with saturated FA of the same length. GM1s acetylated or acylated with C(8) FA were detected in DRMs in the lowest proportion. Depletion of 73% of cell cholesterol with methyl-beta-cyclodextrin significantly affected the recovery in DRMs of GM1s acetylated or acylated with C(8) or unsaturated FAs but not of GM1 acylated with C(18), C(22), or C(24) FAs. After cross-linking with CT B subunit, all GM1s were recovered in DRMs in a similarly high proportion irrespective of their ceramide structure or cholesterol depletion. DRMs prepared with low TX concentration at the TX/cell protein ratio of 0.3:1 were separated by multistep sucrose density gradient centrifugation into two fractions. The GM1s with sphingosine acetylated or acylated with C(18) or C(18:1) FAs occurred in these fractions in different proportions.  相似文献

By complexing glucose and other mono- and disaccharides with phenylboronic acid, they were solubilized in many organic solvents. Pseudomonas sp. lipoprotein lipase readily acylated such solubilized sugars in these solvents (no reaction was observed without phenylboronic acid, i.e., when sugars are insoluble in the reaction medium). Solubilized D-glucose was enzymatically acylated with vinyl acrylate on a preparative scale, and the resultant 6-O-acryloylglucose was chemically polymerized to yield a sugar-based polyacrylate with a molecular weight of 14,000 Da.

The acylated insulins were synthesized by the reaction of insulin protected by p-methoxybenzoxy carbonyl azide at Gly-A1 site with N-hydroxysuccinimide ester of caproic acid or benzoic acid (Cap-insulin and Bz-insulin). The noteworthy aspects are as follows: (a) the acylated insulins were more stable to the decomposition by various digestive enzymes as compared with native insulin in vitro. (b) Animal experiments using normal rats in vivo revealed that the Bz-insulin had an effective hypoglycemia activity almost similar to that of native insulin.  相似文献

The O-octanoylation of human ghrelin is a natural post-translational modification that enhances its binding to model membranes and could potentially play a central role in ghrelin biological activities. Here, we aimed to clarify the mechanisms that drive ghrelin to the membrane and hence to its receptor that mediates most of its endocrinological effects. As the acylation enhances ghrelin lipophilicity and that ghrelin contains many basic residues, we examined the electrostatic attraction and/or hydrophobic interactions with membranes. Using various liposomes and buffer conditions in binding, zeta potential and isothermal titration calorimetry studies, we found that whereas acylated and unacylated ghrelin were both electrostatically attracted towards the membrane, only acylated ghrelin penetrated into the headgroup and the lipid backbone regions of negatively charged membranes. The O-acylation induced a 120-fold increase in ghrelin local concentration in the membrane. However, acylated ghrelin did not deeply penetrate the membrane nor did it perturb its organisation. Conformational studies by circular dichroism and attenuated total reflection Fourier transformed infrared as well as in silico modelling revealed that both forms of ghrelin mainly adopted the same structure in aqueous, micellar and bilayer environments even though acylated ghrelin structure is slightly more α-helical in a lipid bilayer environment. Altogether our results suggest that membrane acts as a “catalyst” in acylated ghrelin binding to the ghrelin receptor and hence could explain why acylated and unacylated ghrelin are both full agonists of this receptor but in the nanomolar and micromolar range, respectively.  相似文献

Covalent attachment of fatty acids to proteins is a common form of protein modification which has been shown to influence both structure and interaction with membranes. Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) is dually acylated by the fatty acids myristate and palmitate. We have synthesized four peptides corresponding to the first 28 amino acids of the N-terminal region of eNOS. Besides the nonacylated eNOS sequence, three additional peptides with different degrees of acylation have been obtained: myristoylated, doubly palmitoylated, and dually myristoylated and doubly palmitoylated. Acylation itself, myristic and/or palmitic, confers the peptide the ability to adopt extended conformations, indicated by the fact that the CD spectrum of all acylated peptides has a minimum at approximately 215 nm characteristic of beta-sheet structure. The nonacylated sequence interacts with model membranes composed of acidic phospholipids probably through ionic interactions with the polar headgroup of the phospholipids. However, the acylated peptides are able to insert deeply into the hydrophobic core of both neutral and acidic phospholipids, maintaining the spectral features of extended conformations. When DMPC vesicles containing cholesterol and sphingomyelin at 10% were used, the insertion of the triacylated peptide almost completely canceled the thermal transition, although the interaction of the other acylated peptides also reduced the transition amplitude but to a much lower extent and affected only the acyl chains in the fluid state.  相似文献

1-Octyl -d-xylobioside and xyloside were prepared by direct transglycosylation reaction of xylan and 1-octanol using purified xylanase from Aureobasidium pullulans. 2-Ethylhexyl -d- xylobioside and xyloside were also prepared in the same way. The maximum yields of 2-ethylhexyl -d-xylobioside and 2-ethylhexyl -d-xyloside were 110 and 54 mg/g xylan, respectively. The proposed mechanism for production of octyl xylobioside and xyloside involved the reaction of xylan and octanol by xylanase to produce octyl xylobioside and xylotrioside, the latter of which was simultaneously hydrolyzed by xylanase into octyl xyloside and xylobiose.  相似文献

Chlorogenic acid (5-caffeoyl quinic acid (CQA)) extracted from Hydrangea macrophylla (44%, w/w) with 98% purity, was acylated with palmitic acid by Novozym 435 to yield mono-acylated CQA. Acylation of CQA was achieved in 2-methyl-2-butanol at 60°C, and yielded two mono-acylated products: a major product acylated at the C-4 of the quinic moiety (4-O-palmitoyl chlorogenic acid) and a minor product acylated at the C-3 (3-O-palmitoyl chlorogenic acid). The bioconversions obtained in 7 days ranged from 14 to 60% and were influenced by the molar ratio of palmitic acid/CQA, which ranged from 10 to 80. The regioselectivity (4-O-palmitoyl/3-O-palmitoyl ratio) of the reaction was also affected by the molar ratio, and ranged from 90 to 70%. The scavenging activities against 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl radicals demonstrated that these palmitoyl CQA derivatives are associated with antioxidant activity (70% vs CQA).  相似文献

A new strategy for the enzymatic synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives containing a sugar branch was developed via combining of Michael addition and acylation. The first-step reaction of pyrimidines and vinyl 3-propionyloxy propionate was catalyzed by Amano lipase M from Mucor javanicus in DMSO. The initial reaction rates of different pyrimidines decreased in the order of fluorouracil, uracil, thymine, in agreement with their nucleophilicity. The succeeding regioselective acylation of d-glucose and d-mannose with the Michael adducts was catalyzed by alkaline protease from Bacillus subtilis in pyridine. The d-glucose and d-mannose were all acylated at C-6 position. Moderate yield was obtained for each step.  相似文献

The kinetics of the reaction of d-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) show that NAD(+) dissociates from the enzyme before the reaction. In contrast 2-chloromercuri-4-nitrophenol reacts with the holoenzyme without prior dissociation of NAD(+). These studies and observations on the dissociation constant of NAD(+) to the lobster enzyme show that NAD(+) must dissociate from sites modified by substrates during the reductive dephosphorylation of 1,3-diphosphoglycerate. All four sites per tetramer of the apoenzyme are acylated by 1,3-diphosphoglycerate. Hydrolysis of the acyl-enzyme occurs at a significant rate even in the absence of NAD(+), which may explain previous estimates that only two sites per tetramer can readily be acylated.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to prepare poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)ylated octreotide and investigate the stability against acylation by polyester polymers such as poly(lactic acid) and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid). Octreotide was modified by reaction with monomethoxy PEG-propionaldehyde (molecular weight 5,000) in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride. The mono-PEGylated fraction was isolated by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and characterized by matrixassisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Circular dichroism demonstrated no significant secondary structural differences between mono-PEGylated octreotide (mono-PEG-octreotide) and intact octreotide. As a test system for the stability study against acylation reaction, lactic acid (LA) solutions with various concentrations and pH values were prepared with water dilution and subsequent accelerated equilibration at 90°C for 24 hours. Native octreotide was found to be acylated in all the diluted LA solutions with different concentrations (42.5%, 21.3%, and 8.5%, wt/wt) and pH values (2.25, 1.47, and 1.85, respectively). The remaining amounts of intact octreotide continuously decreased to 50% through 30 days of incubation at 37°C. MALDI-TOF MS identified the octreotide to be acylated by LA units. However, acylation reaction of mono-PEG-octreotide in LA solutions was negligible, and the remaining amounts of intact one through 30 days of incubation in LA solutions were also comparable to the initial concentration. These data suggest that mono-PEG-octreotide may prevent the acylation reaction in degrading PLA microspheres and possibly serve as a new source for somatostatin microsphere formulation.  相似文献

Previously, we discovered that human glutathione transferase (hGST) A1-1 could be site-specifically acylated on a tyrosine residue (Y9) to form ester products using thiolesters of glutathione (GS-thiolesters) as acylating reagents. Out of a total of 20 GS-thiolester reagents tested, 15 (75%) are accepted by hGST A1-1 and thus this is a very versatile reaction. The present investigation was aimed at obtaining a more stable product, an amide bond, between the acyl group and the protein, in order to further increase the value of the reaction. Three lysine mutants (Y9K, A216K, and Y9F/A216K) were therefore prepared and screened against a panel of 18 GS-thiolesters. The Y9K mutant did not react with any of the reagents. The double mutant Y9F/A216K reacted with only one reagent, but in contrast, the A216K mutant could be acylated at the introduced lysine 216 with eight (44%) of the GS-thiolesters. The reaction can take place in the presence of glutathione and even in a crude cell lysate for five (28%) of the reagents. Through the screening process we obtained some basic rules relating to reagent requirements. We have thus produced a mutant (A216K) that can be rapidly and site-specifically modified at a lysine residue to form a stable amide linkage with a range of acyl groups. One of the successful reagents is a fluorophore that potentially can be used in downstream protein purification and protein fusion applications.  相似文献

The complex preparation ethapolan synthesized by Acinetobacter sp. consists of neutral (minor component) and two acidic exopolysaccharides (EPS) one of which is acylated. On the basis of chemical modification of EPS, solvolysis with anhydrous hydrogen fluoride resulting in a penta- and octasaccharide fragments, Smith degradation, 1H- and 13C NMR analysis the following structure of the acylated polysaccharide repeating unit has been established (scheme): It is suggested that in the acylated EPS at least one glucose residue and the galactose residue are O-acylated.  相似文献

Acylated hyaluronan (HA) in aqueous (DMSO/H2O) and nonaqueous (DMSO) solutions was studied by means of nuclear magnetic resonance, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), mass spectrometry and UV/vis spectroscopy. It has been demonstrated that structural and conformational properties of the acylated hyaluronan derivates are strongly dependent on the nature of reaction solvent. Acylation in DMSO was more selective than that carried out in DMSO/H2O, though in both cases in average a maximum of one acyl chain was detected per HA dimer. The hydrophobic functionalization of hyaluronan induced its interaction with hydrophobic dye as a consequence of acyl chain aggregation. The higher the degree of acylation the more hydrophobic dye was interacting with HA. For concentrated samples, aggregation was more evident in case of acylated HA in aqueous solution. This phenomenon was explained by its different conformational arrangement in solution which was further supported by DSC data indicating an existence of hydrophobic cavities. The formation of self-aggregated assemblies indicates potential applications of this type of HA derivate as drug delivery system.  相似文献
