Chemoselective modifications for the traceless ligation of thioamide-containing peptides and proteins.

Project description:Thioamides are single-atom substitutions of canonical amide bonds, and have been proven to be versatile and minimally perturbing probes in protein folding studies. Previously, our group showed that thioamides can be incorporated into proteins by native chemical ligation (NCL) with Cys as a ligation handle. In this study, we report the expansion of this strategy into non-Cys ligation sites, utilizing radical initiated desulfurization to "erase" the side chain thiol after ligation. The reaction exhibited high chemoselectivity against thioamides, which can be further enhanced with thioacetamide as a sacrificial scavenger. As a proof-of-concept example, we demonstrated the incorporation of a thioamide probe into a 56 amino acid protein, the B1 domain of Protein G (GB1). Finally, we showed that the method can be extended to ?-thiol amino acid analogs and selenocysteine.

Traceless enzymatic protein synthesis without ligation sites constraint.

Project description:Protein synthesis and semisynthesis offer immense promise for life sciences and have impacted pharmaceutical innovation. The absence of a generally applicable method for traceless peptide conjugation with a flexible choice of junction sites remains a bottleneck for accessing many important synthetic targets, however. Here we introduce the PALME (protein activation and ligation with multiple enzymes) platform designed for sequence-unconstrained synthesis and modification of biomacromolecules. The upstream activating modules accept and process easily accessible synthetic peptides and recombinant proteins, avoiding the challenges associated with preparation and manipulation of activated peptide substrates. Cooperatively, the downstream coupling module provides comprehensive solutions for sequential peptide condensation, cyclization and protein N/C-terminal or internal functionalization. The practical utility of this methodology is demonstrated by synthesizing a series of bioactive targets ranging from pharmaceutical ingredients to synthetically challenging proteins. The modular PALME platform exhibits unprecedentedly broad accessibility for traceless protein synthesis and functionalization, and holds enormous potential to extend the scope of protein chemistry and synthetic biology.

Water-soluble phosphinothiols for traceless staudinger ligation and integration with expressed protein ligation.

Project description:The traceless Staudinger ligation is an effective means to synthesize an amide bond between two groups of otherwise orthogonal reactivity: a phosphinothioester and an azide. An important application of the Staudinger ligation is in the ligation of peptides at a variety of residues. Here, we demonstrate that the traceless Staudinger ligation can be achieved in water with a water-soluble reagent. Those reagents that provide a high yield of amide product discourage protonation of the nitrogen in the key iminophosphorane intermediate. The most efficacious reagent, bis(p-dimethylaminoethyl)phosphinomethanethiol, mediates the rapid ligation of equimolar substrates in water. This reagent is also able to perform a transthioesterification reaction with the thioester intermediate formed during intein-mediated protein splicing. Hence, the traceless Staudinger ligation can be integrated with expressed protein ligation, extending the reach of modern protein chemistry.

Selective enrichment and identification of azide-tagged cross-linked peptides using chemical ligation and mass spectrometry.

Project description:Protein-protein interaction is one of the key regulatory mechanisms for controlling protein function in various cellular processes. Chemical cross-linking coupled with mass spectrometry has proven to be a powerful method not only for mapping protein-protein interactions of all natures, including weak and transient ones, but also for determining their interaction interfaces. One critical challenge remaining in this approach is how to effectively isolate and identify cross-linked products from a complex peptide mixture. In this work, we have developed a novel strategy using conjugation chemistry for selective enrichment of cross-linked products. An azide-tagged cross-linker along with two biotinylated conjugation reagents were designed and synthesized. Cross-linking of model peptides and cytochrome c as well as enrichment of the resulting cross-linked peptides has been assessed. Selective conjugation of azide-tagged cross-linked peptides has been demonstrated using two strategies: copper catalyzed cycloaddition and Staudinger ligation. While both methods are effective, Staudinger ligation is better suited for enriching the cross-linked peptides since there are fewer issues with sample handling. LC MS(n) analysis coupled with database searching using the Protein Prospector software package allowed identification of 58 cytochrome c cross-linked peptides after enrichment and affinity purification. The new enrichment strategy developed in this work provides useful tools for facilitating identification of cross-linked peptides in a peptide mixture by MS, thus presenting a step forward in future studies of protein-protein interactions of protein complexes by cross-linking and mass spectrometry.

Chemical Synthesis of GPI Glycan-Peptide Conjugates by Traceless Staudinger Ligation.

Project description:A new strategy has been developed for GPI glycan-peptide conjugate synthesis based upon a traceless Staudinger reaction between a peptide phosphinothioester and a GPI glycan azide. The strategy was first studied and optimized with simple peptides and GPI glycans, which offered excellent yields of the desired conjugates in both organic and aqueous solvents. It was then used to successfully synthesize an analogue of the human CD52 antigen containing the whole CD52 peptide sequence and the conserved trimannose motif of all GPI anchors.

Selective and Reversible Photochemical Derivatization of Cysteine Residues in Peptides and Proteins.

Project description:Selective derivatization of solvent-exposed cysteine residues in peptides and proteins is achieved by brief irradiation of an aqueous solution containing 3-(hydroxymethyl)-2-naphthol derivatives (NQMPs) with 350 nm fluorescent lamp. NQMP can be conjugated with various moieties, such as PEG, dyes, carbohydrates, or possess a fragment for further selective derivatization, e.g., biotin, azide, alkyne, etc. Attractive features of this labeling approach include an exceptionally fast rate of the reaction and a requirement for low equivalence of the reagent. The NQMP-thioether linkage is stable under ambient conditions, survives protein digestion and MS analysis. Irradiation of NQMP-labeled protein in a dilute solution (<40 μM) or in the presence of a vinyl ether results in a traceless release of the substrate. The reversible biotinylation of bovine serum albumin, as well as capture and release of this protein using NeutrAvidin Agarose resin beads has been demonstrated.

Traceless Staudinger ligation enabled parallel synthesis of proteolysis targeting chimera linker variants.

Project description:A parallel, one-pot assembly approach to proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) is demonstrated utilizing activated esters generated in situ, and traceless Staudinger ligation chemistry. The method described allows for rapid structure-activity relationship studies of PROTAC linker variants. Two previously studied systems, cereblon and BRD4 degraders, are examined as test cases for the synthetic method. The two related strategies to assemble PROTAC linker variants discussed can accommodate the chromotographic separations capabilities of labs of many sizes and incorporates commercially available degrader building blocks, thereby easing synthetic entry into PROTAC chemical space.
