A light-initiated chemical reporter strategy for spatiotemporal labeling of biomolecules.

ABSTRACT: The emergence of optochemical approaches has had a diverse impact over a broad range of biological research due to spatiotemporal regulation. Herein, we integrate this feature into the bioorthogonal chemical reporter strategy, which enables visible light-controlled spatiotemporal labeling of cell-surface glycans, lipids, and proteins. The metabolic precursors were first incorporated into live cells, and next the bioorthogonal reaction converted the azide/alkyne into a photo-active functional group, which allowed for subsequent photo-click reaction. We demonstrated this strategy by specifically labeling sialome, mucin-type O-glycome, phospholipids and newly-synthesized membrane proteins, respectively. The sequential photoirradiation-orthogonal reporter tagging (SPORT) should facilitate the probing of biomolecules in complex biological systems with high spatiotemporal precision.

Project description:Aliphatic polyesters are among materials most extensively used for producing biodegradable polymeric nanoparticles currently in development as delivery carriers and imaging agents for a range of biomedical applications. Their clinical translation requires robust particle labeling methodologies that allow reliably monitoring the fate of these formulations in complex biological environments. In the present study, a practical and versatile synthetic strategy providing conjugates of poly(D,L-lactide) representative of this class of polymers with BODIPY fluorophores varying in functional groups and excitation/emission maxima was investigated as a tool for making traceable nanoparticles. Polymer-probe conjugation was accomplished by carbodiimide-induced and 4-(dimethylamino)pyridinium 4-toluenesulfonate-catalyzed esterification of the polymer's terminal hydroxyl group, either directly with a carboxy-functionalized fluorophore or with amine-protected amino acids (Boc-glycine or Boc-6-aminohexanoic acid). In the latter case, the amino acid-derivatized polymeric precursors were reacted with amine-reactive BODIPY dyes after the removal of the protective group. Unlike nanoparticles encapsulating a strongly hydrophobic BODIPY505/515 (logPo/w = 4.3), nanoparticles labeled covalently with its carboxy-functionalized analogue (BODIPY FL) demonstrated stable particle-tracer association under perfect sink conditions. Furthermore, in contrast to the encapsulated dye rapidly partitioning from particles onto cell membranes but not stably retained by cultured cells, the internalization of the covalently attached probe was an irreversible process requiring the presence of serum, consistent with active nanoparticle uptake by endocytosis. In conclusion, the conjugation of particle-forming polymers with BODIPY fluorophores offers an effective and accessible labeling strategy for making traceable polyester-based biodegradable nanoparticles and is expected to facilitate their development and optimization as therapeutic carriers and diagnostic agents.

Project description:In this work, five different chelating agents, namely DFO, CTH-36, DFO*, 3,4,3-(LI-1,2-HOPO) and DOTA-GA, were compared with regard to the relative kinetic inertness of their corresponding 89Zr complexes to evaluate their potential for in vivo application and stable 89Zr complexation. The chelators were identically functionalized with tetrazines, enabling a fully comparable, efficient, chemoselective and biorthogonal conjugation chemistry for the modification of any complementarily derivatized biomolecules of interest. A small model peptide of clinical relevance (TCO-c(RGDfK)) was derivatized via iEDDA click reaction with the developed chelating agents (TCO = trans-cyclooctene and iEDDA = inverse electron demand Diels-Alder). The bioconjugates were labeled with 89Zr4+, and their radiochemical properties (labeling conditions and efficiency), logD(7.4), as well as the relative kinetic inertness of the formed complexes, were compared. Furthermore, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were conducted to identify potential influences of chelator modification on complex formation and geometry. The results of the DFT studies showed-apart from the DOTA-GA derivative-no significant influence of chelator backbone functionalization or the conjugation of the chelator tetrazines by iEDDA. All tetrazines could be efficiently introduced into c(RGDfK), demonstrating the high suitability of the agents for efficient and chemoselective bioconjugation. The DFO-, CTH-36- and DFO*-modified c(RGDfK) peptides showed a high radiolabeling efficiency under mild reaction conditions and complete 89Zr incorporation within 1 h, yielding the 89Zr-labeled analogs as homogenous products. In contrast, 3,4,3-(LI-1,2-HOPO)-c(RGDfK) required considerably prolonged reaction times of 5 h for complete radiometal incorporation and yielded several different 89Zr-labeled species. The labeling of the DOTA-GA-modified peptide was not successful at all. Compared to [89Zr]Zr-DFO-, [89Zr]Zr-CTH-36- and [89Zr]Zr-DFO*-c(RGDfK), the corresponding [89Zr]Zr-3,4,3-(LI-1,2-HOPO) peptide showed a strongly increased lipophilicity. Finally, the relative stability of the 89Zr complexes against the EDTA challenge was investigated. The [89Zr]Zr-DFO complex showed-as expected-a low kinetic inertness. Unexpectedly, also, the [89Zr]Zr-CTH-36 complex demonstrated a high susceptibility against the challenge, limiting the usefulness of CTH-36 for stable 89Zr complexation. Only the [89Zr]Zr-DFO* and the [89Zr]Zr-3,4,3-(LI-1,2-HOPO) complexes demonstrated a high inertness, qualifying them for further comparative in vivo investigation to determine the most appropriate alternative to DFO for clinical application.
