Curdlan as a Polymeric Starting Material to Access C6-Modified Glucose Derivatives

Synthesis and specific influenza A virus‐adsorptive functionality of alkyl curdlan sulfate‐coated membrane filter

To develop a biomaterial with an influenza virus‐adsorptive functionality, an alkyl curdlan sulfate was prepared by ionic interaction between a positively charged didodecyldimethyl ammonium bromide and a negatively charged sulfate group of curdlan sulfate, which has potent anti‐HIV activity, and then it was coated on a membrane filter with a 1‐μm pore size by hydrophobic interaction with the long alkyl groups in the curdlan sulfate. The alkyl curdlan sulfate with the degree of alkylation (DOA) of 0.03 (one didodecyldimethyl group/12 sugar residues with 36 hydroxyl or sulfate groups) showed potent anti‐HIV activity in a 50% effective concentration (EC₅₀) as low as 0.87 μg/mL (standard curdlan sulfate EC₅₀ = 0.3 μg/mL), and the activity decreased with increasing DOA. A DOA higher than 0.1 (one didodecyldimethyl group/three sugar residues with nine hydroxyl or sulfate groups) gave no anti‐HIV activity. Although both curdlan sulfate and alkyl curdlan sulfates did not inhibited infection of Madin‐Darby canine kidney cells by influenza viruses, the alkyl curdlan sulfate‐coated membrane filter was found to have a specific adsorptive functionality for influenza A virus in vitro. When 1.6 mg of the alkyl curdlan sulfate with the DOA of 0.03 was coated on a membrane filter (φ13 mm; pore size, 1 μm), three stacked alkyl curdlan sulfate‐coated membrane filters dramatically decreased hemagglutination to 1/4–1/32. However, the membrane filter did not effectively remove on influenza B viruses, and thus a membrane filter without alkyl curdlan sulfate was not effective against influenza viruses. These results can therefore be presumed to demonstrate that the alkyl curdlan sulfate‐coated membrane filter removed influenza A viruses by adsorption between the negatively charged sulfate groups and the positively charged envelope protein of the virus. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Conformation of curdlan as observed by tapping mode atomic force microscopy

Tapping mode atomic force microscopy was used to study the bacterial polysaccharide curdlan deposited from dimethyl sulfoxide (Me₂SO) and NaOH aqueous solutions. For curdlan in Me₂SO, flexible single chains corresponding to a disordered conformation were observed at a concentration of 5 mg/l, and the chain diameter was measured to be 0.65±0.05 nm, which showed good agreement with the expected value of the single polysaccharide chain. Because the concentration of curdlan increased, the chains became more rigid and aggregated, subsequently, the network structures of curdlan appeared. However, curdlan samples deposited from a 5 mM NaOH solution showed entirely different conformations. The chains observed were almost in the form of micelles of several nanometers, which were supermolecular assemblies. The heterogeneously dense zones were observed as the curdlan concentration increased to 40 mg/l. When the concentration of curdlan was above 100 mg/l, which might cause the real concentration of curdlan on the mica substrate after drying treatment exceeding some critical value of gelation, gel network structures were formed. Keeping on increasing the concentration of curdlan, the image showed a more homogeneous fibrous network.     

Evidence for a conformational transition in curdlan

Gelation occurred at a concentration of 0.3% curdlan solution at room temperature (25 °C). The curdlan showed a Newtonian behavior at 0.1%, but plastic behavior above 0.2% even at a temperature of 38 °C. The dynamic modulus remained at a constant value with an increase of temperature up to 40 °C., which was estimated to be a transition temperature, then it decreased rapidly with an increase of temperature until 55 °C; however, it increased gradually with a further increase of temperature. The dynamic viscoelasticity of curdlan solution remained at very low values on addition of urea (4 M) and decreased with increasing temperature. The optical rotation of curdlan (0.1%) increased with a decrease of temperature.Possible modes of intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonding within and between curdlan molecules were proposed. A hydrophobic interaction might take place at high temperatures (>55 °C), the mode of which was also proposed.     

Parallel vs. anti-parallel orientation in a curdlan/oligo(dA) complex as estimated by a FRET technique

We already found that beta-1,3-glucan polysaccharides form polymeric complexes with certain polynucleotides, but the parallel vs. anti-parallel orientation in those complexes had remained unsolved. In this paper, this controversial problem has been discussed for curdlan/oligo(dA) complexes utilizing two different energy transfer techniques. The first system consists of a combination of fluorescein-labeled curdlan and 3'-(or 5'-)tetramethyl-rhodamine (TAMRA)-labeled oligo(dA). The second system utilizes gold nanoparticles: that is, two curdlan chains were linked by a disulfide bond and after complexation with oligo(dA), the complex was immobilized on gold nanoparticles. In this system, TAMRA was attached to the 3'(or 5') end of oligo(dA) and the gold particle acted as a fluorescence quencher (energy acceptor). These experiments have led us to conclude that in the curdlan/oligo(dA) complex, parallel orientation is more favourable than anti-parallel orientation. These findings have enabled us to envision a clearer image for the complexation mode between beta-1,3-glucan polysaccharides and polynucleotides.     

Fermentative production of curdlan

Curdlan was produced by pure culture fermentation using Agrobacterium radiobacter NCIM 2443. Three different carbon sources (glucose, sucrose, maltose) were selected for study. Sucrose was found to be the most efficient. Utilization of sugar during the course of fermentation was studied, and the data were correlated to the production of curdlan. Curdlan mimics a secondary metabolite, in that its synthesis is associated with the poststationary growth phase of nitrogen-depleted batch culture. This was inferred from the results obtained from utilization of nitrogen. Regulation of pH at 6.1 +/- 0.3 resulted in an increased yield of curdlan from 2.48 to 4.8 g/L, and the corresponding increase in succinoglucan production was from 1.78 to 2.8 g/L. An attempt was made to increase curdlan production by the addition of the uridine nucleotides UMP and UDP-glucose to the fermentation broth. It was found that UDP-glucose at 0.8 microg/mL and UMP at 0.6 microg/mL served as precursors for curdlan and succinoglucan production when added after 18 h of nitrogen depletion in the fermentation broth.

Synthesis of thermoplastic curdlan alkyl carbamates having hydrogen bonding ability

Rigid and little moldable curdlan, a linear β-1,3-glucan having intra- and interchain hydrogen bonds, was reacted with several alkyl isocyanates, which gave thermoplastic curdlan alkyl carbamates (CrdC) with degree of substitution about 2. The alkyl carbamation at hydroxy groups in the glucan skeleton effectively broke the interchain hydrogen bonds of curdlan and increased flexibility of CrdC, while the newly formed carbamate moieties could moderately keep the hydrogen bonding ability in CrdC. Elongating the alkyl groups in the carbamate side chains increased solubility in organic solvents and thermoplasticity of CrdC, which enabled to make homogeneous and free-standing films by both methods of solution-casting and hot-pressing.     

Hybrid Curdlan Poly(γ ‐Glutamic Acid) Nanoassembly for Immune Modulation in Macrophage

A nanoformulation composed of curdlan, a linear polysaccharide of 1,3‐β‐linked d ‐glucose units, hydrogen bonded to poly(γ ‐glutamic acid) (PGA), was developed to stimulate macrophage. Curdlan/PGA nanoparticles (C‐NP) are formulated by physically blending curdlan (0.2 mg mL^?1 in 0.4 m NaOH) with PGA (0.8 mg mL^?1). Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) analysis demonstrates a heterospecies interpolymer complex formed between curdlan and PGA. The ¹H‐NMR spectra display significant peak broadening as well as downfield chemical shifts of the hydroxyl proton resonances of curdlan, indicating potential intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions. In addition, the cross peaks in ¹H‐¹H 2D‐NOESY suggest intermolecular associations between the OH‐2/OH‐4 hydroxyl groups of curdlan and the carboxylic‐/amide‐groups of PGA via hydrogen bonding. Intracellular uptake of C‐NP occurs over time in human monocyte‐derived macrophage (MDM). Furthermore, C‐NP nanoparticles dose‐dependently increase gene expression for TNF‐α, IL‐6, and IL‐8 at 24 h in MDM. C‐NP nanoparticles also stimulate the release of IL‐lβ, MCP‐1, TNF‐α, IL‐8, IL‐12p70, IL‐17, IL‐18, and IL‐23 from MDM. Overall, this is the first demonstration of a simplistic nanoformulation formed by hydrogen bonding between curdlan and PGA that modulates cytokine gene expression and release of cytokines from MDM.
