Design of Spiro[2.3]hex-1-ene, a Genetically Encodable Double-Strained Alkene for Superfast Photoclick Chemistry
نویسندگان
چکیده
Reactive yet stable alkene reporters offer a facile route to studying fast biological processes via the cycloaddition-based bioorthogonal reactions. Here, we report the design and synthesis of a strained spirocyclic alkene, spiro[2.3]hex-1-ene (Sph), for an accelerated photoclick chemistry, and its site-specific introduction into proteins via amber codon suppression using the wild-type pyrrolysyl-tRNA synthetase/tRNA(CUA) pair. Because of its high ring strain and reduced steric hindrance, Sph exhibited fast reaction kinetics (k2 up to 34,000 M(-1) s(-1)) in the photoclick chemistry and afforded rapid (<10 s) bioorthogonal protein labeling.

Selective functionalization of a genetically encoded alkene-containing protein via "photoclick chemistry" in bacterial cells.
We report a tetrazole-based, photoclick chemistry that can be employed to selectively functionalize an alkene genetically encoded in a protein inside E. coli cells. The reaction involved the treatment of E. coli cells with cell-permeable tetrazoles followed by a brief photo irradiation at 302 nm (4 min) and an overnight incubation at 4 degrees C. This in vivo alkene functionalization procedure ...

Spiro compounds are of interest due to their interesting conformational features and their structural implications on biological systems. The asymmetric characteristic of the molecule due to the chiral spiro carbon is one of the important criteria of the biological activities. These structures are a widespread structural motif found as key elements of numerous drugs and designed medicinal agent...

Detailed kinetic analyses of inverse electron-demand Diels–Alder cycloaddition and nitrilimine-alkene/alkyne 1,3-diploar cycloaddition reactions were conducted and the reactions were applied for rapid protein bioconjugation. When reacted with a tetrazine or a diaryl nitrilimine, strained alkene/alkyne entities including norbornene, trans-cyclooctene, and cyclooctyne displayed rapid kinetics. To...

Site-specific incorporation of bioorthogonal unnatural amino acids into proteins provides a useful tool for the installation of specific functionalities that will allow for the labeling of proteins with virtually any probe. We demonstrate the genetic encoding of a set of alkene lysines using the orthogonal PylRS/PylTCUA pair in Escherichia coli. The installed double bond functionality was then ...

Bioorthogonal chemical reactions together with techniques to expand the genetic code have provided exciting new means for protein labeling and visualization in living systems, as well as for optimizing the efficacy of therapeutic proteins. Toward these goals, amino acids with small bioorthogonal functional groups, such as azide, alkyne, or cyclopropene moieties, as well as larger reactive bioor...
