Rapid On‐chip Synthesis of Complex Glycomimetics from N‐glycan Scaffolds for Improved Lectin Targeting

Résumé

C-type lectin receptor (CLR) carbohydrate binding proteins found on immune cells with important functions in pathogen recognition as well as self and non-self-differentiation are increasingly moving into the focus of drug developers as targets for the immune therapy of cancer autoimmune diseases and inflammation and to improve the efficacy of vaccines. The development of molecules with increased affinity and selectivity over the natural glycan binders has largely focused on the synthesis of mono and disaccharide mimetics but glycan array binding experiments have shown increased binding selectivity and affinity for selected larger oligosaccharides that are able to engage in additional favorable interactions beyond the primary binding site. Here, a platform for the rapid preparation and screening of N-glycan mimetics on microarrays is presented that turns a panel of complex glycan core structures into structurally diverse glycomimetics by a combination of enzymatic glycosylation with a nonnatural donor and subsequent cycloaddition with a collection of alkynes. All surface-based reactions were monitored by MALDI-TOF MS to assess conversion and purity of spot compositions. Screening the collection of 374 N-glycomimetics against the plant lectin WFA and the 2 human immune lectins MGL ECD and Langerin ECD produced a number of high affinity binders as lead structures for more selective lectin targeting probes.
