Article: SYNTHESIS OF PSEUDO-DISACCHARIDE ANALOGUES OF LIPID A: HAPTENS FOR THE GENERATION OF ANTIBODIES WITH GLYCOSIDASE ACTIVITY TOWARDS LIPID A
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In order to develop a generic treatment of sepsis caused by infections with Gram-negative bacteria, a series of pseudo-disaccharide analogues of lipid A (1–5) was synthesized. These adducts not only harbor a 2-acylaminodideoxynojirimycin unit mimicking the transition state of the glycosidic hydrolysis, but also a 2-N, 3-O-diacylated glucosamine moiety capable of generating catalytic antibodies with more selective glycosidase properties towards lipid A.Journal of Carbohydrate Chemistry 08/2006; 21(3)(167–188 (2002)):167-188. · 0.63 Impact Factor -
Article: Approach Toward a Generic Treatment of Gram‐Negative Infections: Synthesis of Haptens for Catalytic Antibody Mediated Cleavage of the Interglycosidic Bond in Lipid A
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In order to develop a generic treatment for infections with Gram-negative bacteria, we developed a synthesis of 2-acylamino-deoxynojirimycin derivatives (17, 18, 19 and 20), which will be used as haptens for raising catalytic antibodies capable of hydrolyzing the interglycosidic bond in the lipid A moiety of endotoxins. A key intermediate in the preparation of compounds 17, 18, 19 and 20 is 3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-2-[(benzyloxycarbonyl)amino]-2-deoxy-D-glucono-δ-lactam (6), which was prepared from known 3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-2-[(benzyloxycarbonyl)amino]-2-deoxy-D-glucosamine (1) in four steps in 47% overall yield. Antibodies were generated against 2-[(6-aminohexanoyl)amino]-2-deoxy-D-glucono-δ-lactam (17) coupled to the carrier protein bovine serum albumin.Annalen der Chemie und Pharmacie 10/1999; 1999(10):2593 - 2600. · 3.10 Impact Factor
