Block synthesis of tetra- and hexasaccharides (beta-D-glycero-D-manno-Hep p-(1-->4)-[alpha-l-Rha p-(1-->3)-beta-D-glycero-D-manno-Hep p-(1-->4)]n-alpha-L-Rha p-OMe (n = 1 and 2)) corresponding to multiple repeat units of the glycan from the surface-layer glycoprotein from Bacillus thermoaerophilus.

ABSTRACT: A fully stereocontrolled block synthesis of the title tetra- and hexasaccharides has been achieved taking advantage of the ability of the 4,6-O-benzylidene acetal to control the stereochemistry of the beta-D-glycero-D-mannoheptopyranoside unit and of a 2,3-O-diphenylmethylene acetal to install the alpha-L-rhamnopyranosidic linkages. Comparison of the spectral data for the hexasaccharide with that of the natural isolate confirms the structure of this very unusual and structurally challenging glycan.

Stereocontrolled synthesis of the D- and L-glycero-beta-D-manno-heptopyranosides and their 6-deoxy analogues. Synthesis of methyl alpha-l-rhamno-pyranosyl-(1-->3)-D-glycero-beta-D-manno-heptopyranosyl- (1-->3)-6-deoxy-glycero-beta-D-manno-heptopyranosyl-(1-->4)-alpha-L- rhamno-pyranoside, a tetrasaccharide subunit of the lipopolysaccharide from Plesimonas shigelloides.

Project description:The synthesis of d- and l-glycero-alpha-manno-thioheptopyranosides, protected with 4,6-O-alkylidene-type acetals is described. In glycosylations carried out with preactivation with the 1-benzenesulfinylpiperidine/trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride couple, both the D- and L-glycero series exhibit excellent beta-selectivity with a range of glycosyl acceptors. In contrast, a 4,7-O-alkylidene acetal was found not to afford beta-selectivity. With a 4,6-O-[1-cyano-2-(2-iodophenyl)ethylidene] acetal protected thioglycoside, excellent beta-selectivity was obtained in glycosylation reactions, and subsequent treatment with tributyltin hydride and azoisobutyronitrile brought about clean fragmentation to the 6-deoxy-glycero-beta-D-manno-heptopyranosides. This chemistry was applied to the stereocontrolled synthesis of methyl alpha-L-rhamno-pyranosyl-(1-->3)-D-glycero-beta-D-manno-heptopyranosyl-(1-->3)-6-deoxy-glycero-beta-D-manno-heptopyranosyl-(1-->4)-alpha-L-rhamno-pyranoside, a component of the lipopolysaccharide from Plesimonas shigelloides.

GTP Preference of d-Glycero-α-d-manno-Heptose-1-Phosphate Guanylyltransferase from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis.

Project description:d-glycero-α-d-manno-heptose-1-phosphate guanylyltransferase (HddC) is the fourth enzyme synthesizing a building component of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Gram-negative bacteria. Since HddC is a potential new target to develop antibiotics, the analysis of the structural and functional relationship of the complex structure will lead to a better idea to design inhibitory compounds. X-ray crystallography and biochemical experiments to elucidate the guanine preference were performed based on the multiple sequence alignment. The crystal structure of HddC from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis (YPT) complexed with guanosine 5'-(β-amino)-diphosphate (GMPPN) has been determined at 1.55 Å resolution. Meanwhile, the mutants revealed their reduced guanine affinity, instead of acquiring noticeable pyrimidine affinity. The complex crystal structure revealed that GMPPN is docked in the catalytic site with the aid of Glu80 positioning on the conserved motif EXXPLGTGGA. In the HddC family, this motif is expected to recruit nucleotides through interacting with bases. The crystal structure shows that oxygen atoms of Glu80 forming two hydrogen bonds play a critical role in interaction with two nitrogen atoms of the guanine base of GMPPN. Interestingly, the binding of GMPPN induced the formation of an oxyanion hole-like conformation on the L(S/A/G)X(S/G) motif and consequently influenced on inducing a conformational shift of the region around Ser55.

Straight Forward and Versatile Differentiation of the l-glycero and d-glycero-d-manno Heptose Scaffold.

Project description:Bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are important bio-medical structures, playing a major role in the interaction with human immune systems. Their core regions, containing multiple units of l-glycero-d-manno heptoses (l,d-heptose), are highly conserved structurally (with O3 and O7 glycosidic bonds), making them an epitope of high interest for the potential development of new antibiotics and vaccines. Research in this field has always been restricted by the limited availability of the parent l,d-heptose as well as its biochemical epimeric precursor d-glycero-d-manno heptose (d,d-heptose). This problem of availability has recently been solved by us, through a rapid and efficient practical synthesis of l,d-manno-heptose peracetate demonstrated at scale. Herein we report an optimized, technically simple and versatile synthetic strategy for the differentiation of both the l-glycero and d-glycero-d-manno heptose scaffolds. Our approach is based on an orthoester methodology for the differentiation of all three positions of the sugar core using a O6, O7-tetraisopropyl disiloxyl (TIPDS) protecting group for the exocyclic positions. Furthermore, the regioselective opening toward 7-OH acceptors (6O-FTIPDS ethers) differentiates the exocyclic diol which has been demonstrated with a broader set of substrates and for both manno-heptoses for the first time.

Functional analysis of the glycero-manno-heptose 7-phosphate kinase domain from the bifunctional HldE protein, which is involved in ADP-L-glycero-D-manno-heptose biosynthesis.

Project description:The core oligosaccharide component of the lipopolysaccharide can be subdivided into inner and outer core regions. In Escherichia coli, the inner core consists of two 3-deoxy-d-manno-octulosonic acid and three glycero-manno-heptose residues. The HldE protein participates in the biosynthesis of ADP-glycero-manno-heptose precursors used in the assembly of the inner core. HldE comprises two functional domains: an N-terminal region with homology to the ribokinase superfamily (HldE1 domain) and a C-terminal region with homology to the cytidylyltransferase superfamily (HldE2 domain). We have employed the structure of the E. coli ribokinase as a template to model the HldE1 domain and predict critical amino acids required for enzyme activity. Mutation of these residues renders the protein inactive as determined in vivo by functional complementation analysis. However, these mutations did not affect the secondary or tertiary structure of purified HldE1, as judged by fluorescence spectroscopy and circular dichroism. Furthermore, in vivo coexpression of wild-type, chromosomally encoded HldE and mutant HldE1 proteins with amino acid substitutions in the predicted ATP binding site caused a dominant negative phenotype as revealed by increased bacterial sensitivity to novobiocin. Copurification experiments demonstrated that HldE and HldE1 form a complex in vivo. Gel filtration chromatography resulted in the detection of a dimer as the predominant form of the native HldE1 protein. Altogether, our data support the notions that the HldE functional unit is a dimer and that structural components present in each HldE1 monomer are required for enzymatic activity.

Identification of a D-glycero-D-manno-heptosyltransferase gene from Helicobacter pylori.

Project description:We have identified a Helicobacter pylori d-glycero-d-manno-heptosyltransferase gene, HP0479, which is involved in the biosynthesis of the outer core region of H. pylori lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Insertional inactivation of HP0479 resulted in formation of a truncated LPS molecule lacking an alpha-1,6-glucan-, dd-heptose-containing outer core region and O-chain polysaccharide. Detailed structural analysis of purified LPS from HP0479 mutants of strains SS1, 26695, O:3, and PJ1 by a combination of chemical and mass spectrometric methods showed that HP0479 likely encodes alpha-1,2-d-glycero-d-manno-heptosyltransferase, which adds a d-glycero-d-manno-heptose residue (DDHepII) to a distal dd-heptose of the core oligosaccharide backbone of H. pylori LPS. When the wild-type HP0479 gene was reintegrated into the chromosome of strain 26695 by using an "antibiotic cassette swapping" method, the complete LPS structure was restored. Introduction of the HP0479 mutation into the H. pylori mouse-colonizing Sydney (SS1) strain and the clinical isolate PJ1, which expresses dd-heptoglycan, resulted in the loss of colonization in a mouse model. This indicates that H. pylori expressing a deeply truncated LPS is unable to successfully colonize the murine stomach and provides evidence for a critical role of the outer core region of H. pylori LPS in colonization.

Reaction Mechanism and Three-Dimensional Structure of GDP-d-glycero-α-d-manno-heptose 4,6-Dehydratase from Campylobacter jejuni.

Project description:Campylobacter jejuni is a human pathogen and a leading cause of food poisoning in the United States and Europe. Surrounding the outside of the bacterium is a carbohydrate coat known as the capsular polysaccharide. Various strains of C. jejuni have different sequences of unusual sugars and an assortment of decorations. Many of the serotypes have heptoses with differing stereochemical arrangements at C2 through C6. One of the many common modifications is a 6-deoxy-heptose that is formed by dehydration of GDP-d-glycero-α-d-manno-heptose to GDP-6-deoxy-4-keto-d-lyxo-heptose via the action of the enzyme GDP-d-glycero-α-d-manno-heptose 4,6-dehydratase. Herein, we report the biochemical and structural characterization of this enzyme from C. jejuni 81-176 (serotype HS:23/36). The enzyme was purified to homogeneity, and its three-dimensional structure was determined to a resolution of 2.1 Å. Kinetic analyses suggest that the reaction mechanism proceeds through the formation of a 4-keto intermediate followed by the loss of water from C5/C6. Based on the three-dimensional structure, it is proposed that oxidation of C4 is assisted by proton transfer from the hydroxyl group to the phenolate of Tyr-159 and hydride transfer to the tightly bound NAD+ in the active site. Elimination of water at C5/C6 is most likely assisted by abstraction of the proton at C5 by Glu-136 and subsequent proton transfer to the hydroxyl at C6 via Ser-134 and Tyr-159. A bioinformatic analysis identified 19 additional 4,6-dehydratases from serotyped strains of C. jejuni that are 89-98% identical in the amino acid sequence, indicating that each of these strains should contain a 6-deoxy-heptose within their capsular polysaccharides.

Biosynthesis of GDP-d-glycero-α-d-manno-heptose for the Capsular Polysaccharide of Campylobacter jejuni.

Project description:The capsular polysaccharide (CPS) structure of Campylobacter jejuni contributes to its robust fitness. Many strains contain heptose moieties in their CPS units. The precursor heptose is GDP-d-glycero-α-d-manno-heptose; modifications to the stereochemistry at C3-C6 as well as additions of methyl and phosphoramidate groups lend to the hypervariability of the C. jejuni CPS structures. Synthesis of GDP-d-glycero-α-d-manno-heptose has been described previously, but using enzymes from Aneurinibacillus thermoaerophilus DSM 10155. Here we describe the complete synthesis of GDP-d-glycero-α-d-manno-heptose using enzymes from C. jejuni NTCC 11168: Cj1152 and Cj1423-Cj1425. Our results yield kinetic parameters for these enzymes and outline a successful strategy for milligram-gram scale synthesis of GDP-d-glycero-α-d-manno-heptose. This achievement is critical for the characterization of other carbohydrate tailoring enzymes, which are expected to utilize GDP-d-glycero-α-d-manno-heptose for the biosynthesis of more complex carbohydrates in the CPS of C. jejuni.

Expression and crystallographic studies of D-glycero-?-D-manno-heptose-1-phosphate adenylyltransferase from Burkholderia pseudomallei.

Project description:The Gram-negative bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei is the causative agent of melioidosis. D-glycero-?-D-manno-Heptose-1-phosphate adenylyltransferase (HldC) is the fourth enzyme of the ADP-L-glycero-?-D-manno-heptose biosynthesis pathway, which produces an essential carbohydrate comprising the inner core of lipopolysaccharide. Therefore, HldC is a potential target of antibiotics against melioidosis. In this study, HldC from B. pseudomallei has been cloned, expressed, purified and crystallized. Synchrotron X-ray data from a selenomethionine-substituted HldC crystal were also collected to 2.8?Å resolution. The crystal belonged to the primitive triclinic space group P1, with unit-cell parameters a = 74.0, b = 74.0, c = 74.9?Å, ? = 108.4, ? = 108.4, ? = 108.0°. Eight protomers are present in the unit cell and three out of five selenomethionines were found in each protomer using the PHENIX software suite. A full structural determination is in progress to elucidate the structure-function relationship of the protein.

Synthetic studies toward mannopeptimycin-E: synthesis of the O-linked tyrosine 1,4-alpha,alpha-manno,manno-pyranosyl pyranoside.

Project description:[structure: see text] The enantioselective synthesis of the C-4' acylated 1,4-alpha,alpha-manno,manno-disaccharide fragment of mannopeptimycin-E has been achieved in seven steps from d-tyrosine. The route relies upon diastereoselective palladium-catalyzed glycosylation, diastereoselective reduction, and diastereoselective bis-dihydroxylation. The efficiency of the synthesis is demonstrated by the high overall yield (37%) and the preparation of various analogues.

Chemoenzymatic synthesis of ADP-d-glycero-?-d-manno-heptose and study of the substrate specificity of HldE.

Project description:An efficient one-pot three enzymes strategy for chemoenzymatic synthesis of ADP-d-glycero-?-d-manno-heptose (ADP-d, d-heptose) was reported using chemically synthesized d, d-heptose-7-phosphate and the ADP-d, d-heptose biosynthetic enzymes HldE and GmhB. Moreover, the result of investigating substrate specificity of the kinase action of HldE revealed that HldE had highly restricted substrate specificity towards structurally modified heptose-7-phosphate analogs.
