Heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycans provides extracellular matrix defense against heavy metals cytotoxicity. Identifying the precise glycan sequences that bind a particular heavy metal ion is a key for understanding those interactions. Here, electrochemical and surface characterization techniques were used to elucidate the relation between the glycans structural motifs, uronic acid stereochemistry, and sulfation regiochemistry to heavy metal ions binding. A divergent strategy was employed to access a small library of structurally well-defined tetrasaccharides analogs with different sulfation patterns and uronic acid compositions. These tetrasaccharides were electrochemically grafted onto glassy carbon electrodes and their response to heavy metal ions was monitored by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Key differences in the binding of Hg(II), Cd(II), and Pb(II) were associated with a combination of the uronic acid type and the sulfation pattern. 相似文献

Sulfated sugars are a class of complex naturally occurring compounds some of which play central biological roles in mammals. Among them, heparan sulfates are multifunctional cell regulators, whose biological activities are related to their sulfation pattern. Determination of fine structures of these sulfated sugars is a prerequisite for understanding their biological roles. We investigated the applicability of molecular imprinting technology for recognition of the biologically relevant 6-O-sulfate substitution on sugars by using glucose-6-O-sulfate as model. Our results show that molecular imprinted polymers can specifically recognize sulfated sugars by the introduction of primary amines at the polymer side. Imprinted polymers showed excellent selectivity with regard to the sulfate position, the sugar configuration, and the presence of N-acetyl groups. These factors are essential for specific recognition of heparan sulfates' sequences. Molecular imprinting technology promise a significant contribution to the selection of sulfated sugar fragments of biological relevance. 相似文献

Chemokine-glycosaminoglycan (GAG) interactions have been shown to be essential for in vivo chemokine signaling, which functions in such diverse processes as inflammation, development, and cancer metastasis. Despite the importance of these interactions, the saccharide sequence dependency of chemokine-GAG interactions is poorly understood. In a recent study, FT-ICR mass spectrometry was used to show that the chemokine CCL2 (monocyte chemoattractant protein 1) binds only to the 11- and 12-sulfated components of a heparin octasaccharide library. Although the exact structure of the fully sulfated, 12-sulfated octasaccharide is known, the 11-sulfated species could have a number of sulfated disaccharide sequences. In the current study, the composition of the 11-sulfated heparin octasaccharides, as well as the composition of CCL2 affinity purified 11-sulfated heparin octasaccharides, were examined by tandem MS. Of the three possible singly desulfated disaccharides, one species, III-S, is enriched by CCL2 affinity purification, indicating that the 11-sulfated heparin octasaccharides containing this disaccharide are preferentially bound to CCL2. These data suggest that 2-O and N sulfation of heparin may be of greater importance to CCL2-heparin binding than 6-O sulfation. 相似文献

Heparin (HE) and heparan sulfated glycosaminoglycans are well-known mediators of tissue development, maintenance and functions; the activities of these polysaccharides are depending mainly on their sulfate substitutions. The HE structure is also a very important feature in antithrombotic drug development, since the antithrombin binding site is composed by sequences of a specific sulfation pattern. The analysis of disaccharide composition is then a fundamental point of all the studies regarding HE/heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycan (and thereby proteoglycan) functions. The present work describes two analytical methods to quantify the disaccharides constituting HE and heparan sulfate chains. The use of PAGE of fluorophore-labeled saccharides and HPLC coupled with a fluorescence detector allowed in one run the identification of 90-95% of HE disaccharides and 74-100% of rat kidney purified heparan sulfate. Moreover, the protocol here reported avoid the N-sulfation disaccharides degradation, which may affect N-sulfated/N-acetylated disaccharides ratio evaluation. These methods could be also very important in clinical treatments since they are useful for monitoring the availability kinetics of antithrombotic drugs, such as low-molecular-weight HEs. 相似文献

Sulfated glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) display various biological effects which are strongly influenced by the degree of sulfation and the position of sulfate groups within the polymer. Hyaluronan, a non-sulfated GAG, represents a readily accessible educt to synthesize structural analogues of sulfated GAGs mimicking their biological activity. Different strategies were developed and evaluated to synthesize hyaluronan sulfates with a free primary hydroxyl group at C-6' and sulfated secondary hydroxyl groups. Applying selective desulfation methods of high-sulfated hyaluronan by means of silylating agents, products regioselectively desulfated at the primary C-6' but also partly the C-4' position were obtained. A pathway using benzoyl ester protecting groups to block the primary hydroxyl function of Hya during the sulfation resulted in a high-sulfated product, functionalized only at the secondary hydroxyl groups. 相似文献

Abstract Sulfated polysaccharide which had a relatively high degree of sulfation showed cytotoxicity to 3T3-L1 fibroblasts. Acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors inhibited the cell damage caused by the sulfated polysaccharides, while epidermal growth factor and platelet growth factor had no effects. 相似文献

Sulfated polysaccharides have attained a new recognition in medicine for treatment of human pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus. By careful protecting group strategy, methacrylate derivatives of sulfated sugars containing various saccharides have been successfully produced. The position of sulfate groups as well as methyl methacrylate was varied to demonstrate the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of the resulting polymers in regards to their multivalent effect on the bacteria inhibition. The preliminary in vitro assay indicated promising inhibition of S. aureus infection in the presence of doubly sulfated polymers and suggests that our sulfated polymers might be a potential candidate to mediate S. aureus internalization. 相似文献

Sulfated galactans of the red seaweed species Champia indica and Champia parvula of Indian waters were extracted and purified by ion exchange chromatography. These were characterized by infrared and 13C NMR spectroscopy as well as by GC-MS analysis of alditol acetate derivatives produced by reductive hydrolysis/acetylation of sulfated and desulfated and their methylated samples. The sulfated galactans of these Champia species contained alternating β-(1→3)-linked galactopyranosyl units with sulfation at the 2-position and α-(1→4)-linked galactopyranosyl units having sulfation at both the 2- and 3-positions. Other minor substitutions included 6-O-methyl ether of the β-(1→3)-linked galactose residues only in Champia parvula. 相似文献

Phosphorylation and sulfation are important modifications affecting the biological properties of carbohydrates, proteins, and glycoproteins. Identification of these two functional groups facilitates the understanding of the structure/function relationship in various species. Mass spectrometry is one of the methods used to detect the presence of these two modifications in complex biological mixtures. However, phosphorylated and sulfated structures are isobaric; thus, differentiation between them in routinely used mass spectrometers is problematic. Herein, we demonstrate that these two groups can be discriminated by using ion-pairing in conjunction with MS/MS experiments. The characteristic product ions are used to successfully identify the phosphorylation and sulfation present in mono-, disaccharides, and the highly sulfated glycoprotein, ovine luteinizing hormone. This method is a robust approach to differentiate the two isobaric functional groups. 相似文献

Heavy metals enter the human body through the gastrointestinal tract, skin, or via inhalation. Toxic metals have proven to be a major threat to human health, mostly because of their ability to cause membrane and DNA damage, and to perturb protein function and enzyme activity. These metals disturb native proteins’ functions by binding to free thiols or other functional groups, catalyzing the oxidation of amino acid side chains, perturbing protein folding, and/or displacing essential metal ions in enzymes. The review shows the physiological and biochemical effects of selected toxic metals interactions with proteins and enzymes. As environmental contamination by heavy metals is one of the most significant global problems, some detoxification strategies are also mentioned. 相似文献

Although sulfated xylooligosaccharides are promising therapeutic leads for a multitude of afflictions, the structural complexity and heterogeneity of commercially deployed forms (e. g. Pentosan polysulfate 1 ) complicates their path to further clinical development. We describe herein the synthesis of the largest homogeneous persulfated xylooligomers prepared to date, comprising up to eight xylose residues, as standards for biological studies. Near quantitative sulfation was accomplished using a remarkably mild and operationally simple protocol which avoids the need for high temperatures and a large excess of the sulfating reagent. Moreover, the sulfated xylooligomer standards so obtained enabled definitive identification of a pyridinium contaminant in a sample of a commercially prepared Pentosan drug and provided significant insights into the conformational preferences of the constituent persulfated monosaccharide residues. As the spatial distribution of sulfates is a key determinant of the binding of sulfated oligosaccharides to endogenous targets, these findings have broad implications for the advancement of Pentosan-based treatments. 相似文献

Structural characterization of sulfated glycans through mass spectrometry (MS) has been often limited by their low abundance
in biological materials and inefficient ionization in the positive-ion mode. Here, we describe a microscale method for sequentially
enriching sulfated glycans according to their degree of sulfation. This method is based on modifying the binding ability of
strong anion-exchange material through the use of different sodium acetate concentrations, thus enabling fairly selective
binding and a subsequent elution of different glycans according to their degree of sulfation. Before this enrichment, the
negative charge on the sialic acid, which is commonly associated with such glycans, was eliminated through permethylation
that is used to enhance the positive-ion mode matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry
(MALDI-MS) signal for all glycans. This enrichment approach minimizes competitive ionization between sulfated and neutral
glycans, as well as that between sulfated species with a different degree of sulfation. The described method was initially
optimized using sulfated oligosaccharide standards, while its potential has been verified for the sulfated N-glycans originated
from the bovine thyroid-stimulating hormone (bTSH), a glycoprotein possessing mono- and disulfated N-glycans. This enhancement
of the MALDI-MS signal facilitates analysis of some otherwise undetected components. 相似文献

A series of sulfated binary and trinary oxide solid superacids were prepared, and their catalytic activities for n-butane isomerization at low temperature were measured. The incorporation of different metal oxides into ZrO2 may produce a positive or negative effect on the acid strength and catalytic activity of the solid superacids. Sulfated oxides of Cr-Zr, Fe-Cr-Zr and Fe-V-Zr are 2 - 3 times more active than the reported sulfated Fe-Mn-Zr oxide. The enhancement in the superacidity and catalytic activity of these new solid superacids has been discussed on account of the results of various characteriation techniques. 相似文献

Sulfated cellulose (CS) represents an interesting biopolymer due to bioactivity comparable to heparin. However, use of CS for making surface coatings or hydrogels requires the presence of reactive groups for covalent reactions. Here, an approach is presented to oxidize cellulose sulfates for subsequent cross‐linking reactions with amino groups to form imine bonds. Cellulose is sulfated by direct sulfation or acetosulfation, followed by a M alaprade oxidation. The CS obtained is characterized by elemental analysis and 13C‐NMR spectroscopy. The resulting oxidized cellulose sulfates (oxCS) have different degrees of sulfation ranging from 0.79 to 1.13 and oxidation degrees from 0.18 to 0.34, but also different mass average molecular mass (MW). Toxicity studies are carried out with mouse 3T3 fibroblasts exposed to aqueous solutions of oxCS. The results show that all oxCS are non‐toxic at lower concentrations (0.5 mg mL?1), but with both increasing degree of oxidation and concentrations, toxic effects are observed particularly for acetosulfated and lesser for direct sulfated oxCS, which is related to a decrease in the MW of the products. It is concluded that oxCS obtained by direct sulfation with MW above 70 kDa may represent a biocompatible material for the applications suggested above. 相似文献

Metalloregulatory proteins control the expression of genes that allow organisms to quickly adapt to chronic toxicity or deprivation of both biologically essential metal ions and heavy metal pollutants found in their microenvironment. Emerging evidence suggests that metal ion homeostasis and resistance defines an important tug-of-war in human host-bacterial pathogen interactions. This adaptive response originates with the formation of "metal receptor" complexes of exquisite selectivity. In this perspective, we summarize consensus structural features of metal sensing coordination complexes and the evolution of distinct metal selectivities within seven characterized metal sensor protein families. In addition, we place recent efforts to understand the structural basis of metal-induced allosteric switching of these metalloregulatory proteins in a thermodynamic framework, and review the degree to which coordination chemistry drives changes in protein structure and dynamics in selected metal sensor systems. New insights into how metal sensor proteins function in the complex intracellular milieu of the cytoplasm of cells will require a more sophisticated understanding of the "metallome" and will benefit greatly from ongoing collaborative efforts in bioinorganic, biophysical and analytical chemistry, structural biology and microbiology. 相似文献

Phosphorylation and sulfation are two important biological modifications present in carbohydrates, proteins, and glycoproteins. Typically, sulfation and phosphorylation cause different biological responses, so differentiating these two functional groups is important for understanding structure/function relationships in proteins, carbohydrates, and metabolites. Since phosphorylated and sulfated compounds are isobaric, their discrimination is not possible in routinely utilized mass spectrometers. Thus, a novel mass spectrometric method to distinguish them has been developed. Herein, we utilize basic peptides as ion-pairing reagents to complex to phosphorylated and sulfated carbohydrates via noncovalent interactions. By performing ESI-MS/MS on the ion-pair complexes, the isobaric compounds can be distinguished. This is the first study demonstrating that ion-pairing can be used for the detection of phosphorylated compounds and the first study to use ion-pairing in conjunction with MS/MS to obtain structural information about the analytes. 相似文献

Sulfated zirconia catalysts were prepared by sol-gel method using CH3COOH as in situ water source to control hydrolysis of alkoxide, and following two sulfation procedures. The samples were characterized by N2 adsorption, XRD, chemical analysis, and the activity for isomerization of n-hexane was assessed. It was found that sulfation procedure and the amount of acetic acid added exert a great influence on the catalysts properties. Mixture of sulfuric acid with zirconium propoxide before addition of acetic acid allows the retention of a larger amount of sulfur after calcination and enhances catalytic performances of sulfated zirconia. The use of CH3COOH reduces the rate of hydrolysis, and improves considerably acidic and catalytic properties. 相似文献

Electrospray ionization combined with ion trap mass spectrometry (ESI-ITMS) is a powerful tool for structural analysis of complex carbohydrates. Although its application to sulfated glycans has been limited so far, it should provide critical information, such as sulfate positions, on their structures. In this work, MS(n) spectra of nine monosulfated monosaccharides, consisting of five hexoses and four N-acetylhexosamines, were measured in negative ion mode to find basic fragmentation rules for sulfated sugars. Two pairs of positional isomers with respect to sulfation, i.e., Gal4S and Gal6S, and GalNAc4S and GalNAc6S, showed characteristic fragmentation patterns in MS(3), and could be discriminated from one another by the appearance of particular diagnostic fragment ions that characterize individual isomers. It was also demonstrated that, even if a mixture of these positional isomers was analyzed, the proportion of each species could be estimated through analysis of the abundance ratios of the diagnostic ions. However, 3-O-sulfated saccharides (Glc3S and GlcNAc3S) gave a single abundant diagnostic ion in MS(2) corresponding to the hydrogensulfate ion, [OSO(3)H](-), and this characteristic clearly differentiated them from their positional isomers. In contrast, 6-O-sulfated diastereomers consisting of two groups, Glc6S, Man6S, Gal6S, and GlcNAc6S, GalNAc6S, could not be discriminated by the types of fragment ions; however, the abundance ratios of particular fragment ions differed significantly between Glc(NAc)6S and Gal(NAc)6S. Since ESI-ITMS yielded large quantities of useful information on structures of monosulfated hexoses and N-acetylhexosamines in an extremely simple and reproducible manner, establishment of a comprehensive strategy based on ESI-ITMS(n) appears to be a promising technique for structural elucidation of sulfated complex carbohydrates. 相似文献

A previous study of the site of metal binding in tetracycline has been extended to several derivatives of tetracycline in an effort to determine which specific functional groups are involved in binding to metal ions in DMSO solution and to explore relationships between antibacterial activity and metal binding characteristics. Proton NMR experiments using paramagnetic and diamagnetic lanthanide series ions as binding site probes indicate that the ring A tricarbonylmethane group is the binding site for tetracycline, 5-hydroxytetracycline, 4-epitetracycline and tetracyclinemethiodide in DMSO. No. NMR evidence for metal binding is found for 4-dedimethylaminotetracycline. Binding to Mg2+ is also investigated by NMR for several of these compounds, and a discussion of conformational preferences of tetracycline derivatives in DMSO is presented. 相似文献

The effect of heavy metal ions, Cd(2+), Hg(2+) and Pb(2+) on (+)-catechin binding to bovine serum albumin (BSA) has been investigated by spectroscopic methods. The results indicated that the presence of heavy metal ions significantly affected the binding modes and binding affinities of (+)-catechin to BSA, and the effects depend on the types of heavy metal ion. One binding mode was found for (+)-catechin with and without Cd(2+), while two binding modes - a weaker one at low concentration and a stronger one at high concentration were found for (+)-catechin in the presence of Hg(2+) and Pb(2+). The presence of Cd(2+) decreased the binding affinities of (+)-catechin for BSA by 20.5%. The presence of Hg(2+) and Pb(2+) decreased the binding affinity of (+)-catechin for BSA by 8.9% and 26.7% in lower concentration, respectively, and increased the binding affinity of (+)-catechin for BSA by 5.2% and 9.2% in higher concentration, respectively. The changed binding affinity and binding distance of (+)-catechin for BSA in the presence of Cd(2+), Hg(2+) and Pb(2+) were mainly because of the conformational change of BSA induced by heavy metal ions. However, the quenching mechanism for (+)-catechin to BSA was based on static quenching combined with non-radiative energy transfer irrespective of the absence or presence of heavy metal ions. 相似文献
