Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to new compounds and method for analysis and synthesis of saccharide compounds.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Saccharides are the one of most abounding materials in the world. Saccharides are presented in various compositions and of structures at natural materials such as foods, herbs and drugs. In addition, saccharides play essential biological functions in glycoconjugates, for instance, O-, N-glycans in glycoproteins, O/M-antigens in lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Therefore, it is important to determine what saccharides a natural material is composed, and which carbohydrate structure the saccharides are of. However, most saccharides lack charge and UV absorbing, and they are difficult to be separated and detected by conventional photometric (e.g. UV or fluorescence in liquid chromatography) and electric charge (e.g. CE or HPAEC-PAD) methods.


Chemical structure analysis of saccharides is still highly challenged because the primary structural analysis of glycans (saccardises) or glycoproteins remains challenging due to variable composition, linkage, branching and anomericity of the constituent monosaccharides in combination with the general heterogeneity. One traditional method is to detect methylacetylalditols by GC-MS to obtain the linkages information of oligo-/poly-saccharidises. The other method is to cleavage per-methylated oligo-/poly-glycan by tandem mass spectrometry (MS-MS) to obtain the linkages information.


Various analytical strategies to analyze the composition and primary structure of biological saccharides were provided but provided poor results. Recently, one solution was provided to develop a series of detection methods for native and derivatized (‘tagged’) glycans. An analytical platform for a quantitative and qualitative measure of glycan sequencing was reported, wherein to confirm the structures, the sequence of a particular glycan (with/without 2AB tagged) is determined by sequential exoglycosidases digestion.


Alternatively, a method of non-enzymatic analysis, such as NMR, MS, LC, GC, was provided to determine the structure of the glycan. However, it is difficult to separate between D and L configurations of sugars, and identify which configuration of a sugar is, D or L configuration because D or L configurations are optical isomers of each other, or an enantiomeric pair.


So far, although there are some methods have been used in saccharide labeling for characterization or identification of a saccharide, there are still having some limitations. Therefore, to develop a cost-effective and sensitive method for carbohydrate analysis is desired.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is to provide a new approach for glycan sequencing of saccharides, including new isotope-labelled compounds that can be used as agents and the method using the new isotope-labelled compounds.


In one aspect, the present invention provides a compound library comprising benzimidazole derivated saccharides, having a general formula I, S-BIM, wherein S is a sugar moiety and BIM is a benzimidazole.


In some embodiment of the invention, the sugar moiety is a saccharide such as an aldose, a ketoacid sugar or a ketosugar.


In another aspect, the present invention provides benzimidazole-like derivated compounds having a general formula II, S-Y-W, wherein S is a sugar moiety, W is a benzimidazole like moiety, and Y is a function providing moiety.


In some embodiment of the invention, the function providing moiety may be an isotope, a halogen, a peptide, a protein, a biotin, a dye, a fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), or a solid support such as a resin, a (nano) particle, a plate or a chip.


In some embodiment of the invention, the benzimidazole like moiety is a moiety derivated from imidazole, such as benzimidazole, quinoxalinone or hydrazine.


According to the invention, some examples of benzimidazole-like derivated compounds include:


(1) saccharide-Y-benzimidazoles (also called as “the SYBIM derivatives”) having a general formula II(a), SYBIM, wherein S is a saccharide (such as an aldose), Y is a function providing moiety (such as an isotope) and BIM is benzimidazole;


(2) ketoacid-Y-quinoxalinones (also called as “the SYBQX derivatives”) having a general formula II(b), SYBQX, wherein S is a ketoacid sugar, Y is a function providing moiety (such as an isotope) and BQX is quinoxalinone; and

In the invention, a compound library comprising benzimidazole derivated saccharides is contructed. The benzimidazole derivated saccharides have a general formula I, S-BIM, wherein S is a sugar moiety and BIM is a benzimidazole. The sugar moiety may be a saccharide (such as aldose), a ketosugar or a ketoacid.


According to the invention, the compound library can be contracted by all or parts of the compounds as provided.


The present invention also provides benzimidazole-like derivated compounds having a general formula II, S-Y-W, wherein S is a sugar moiety, Y is a function providing moiety, and W is a benzimidazole like moiety.


In the invention, the function providing moiety may be an isotope, a halogen, a peptide, a protein, a biotin, a dye, a fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), or a solid support such as a resin, a (nano) particle, a plate or a chip. The benzimidazole like moiety, which is a moiety derivated from imidazole, such as benzimidazole, quinoxalinone or hydrazine.


The benzimidazole-like derivated compounds include:


(1) saccharide-Y-benzimidazoles (also called as “the SYBIM derivatives”) having a general formula II(a), SYBIM, wherein S is a saccharide (such as an aldose), Y is a function providing moiety (such as an isotope) and BIM is benzimidazole;

(3) ketosugar-Y-hydrazine (also called as “the SYBHZ derivatives”) having a general formula II(c), SYBHZ, wherein S is a ketosugar, Y is a function providing moiety (such as an isotope), and BHZ is hydrazine.


In a particular aspect, the invention provides new isotope-labelled compounds having a general formula IIa′, S-Y′-BIM, wherein S is a sugar moiety, Y′ is an isotope and BIM is benzimidazole.


In one embodiment of the invention, the isotope is a halogen. The isotope is selected from the group consisting of 1H, 2H, 3H, 9B, 10B, 11B, 13C, 14N, 15N, 19F, 31P, 33S, 35Cl, 37Cl, 79Br, and 81Br. Preferable examples are 1H, 9Be, 10B, 11B, 14N, 31P, 35Cl, 37Cl, 79Br, and 81Br. In a particular example of the invention, the isotope is 19F.


In the invention, the sugar moiety is an aldose, a ketosugar or a ketoacid, including common mono-/oligo-/poly-saccharides, like xylose, ribose, rhamnose, arabinose, fucose, glucose, mannose, galactose, N-acetyl-glucosamine, N-acetyl-galactosamine, glucosamine, galactosamine, glucuronic acid, galacturonic acid, N-acetylneuraminic acid, Neu5Gc, KDO, KDN, fructose, sorbose, and etc. in reducing end of sugar.


In some examples of the invention, D-Gal-BIM/L-Gal-BIM (Gal=galactose) or D-Fuc-BIM/L-Fuc-BIM (Fuc=fucose) that are labelled with an isotope such as 19F, are provided.


In the invention, the isotope labelled compounds can be used as standard compounds for saccharide analysis, by using such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), liquid chromatography (LC), gas chromatography (GC), high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) or mass spectrometry (MS). The compounds can be used for analysis of the composition, components, structure, D/L-configuration of a saccharide. Because benzimidazole ring has paramagnetic atom(s), these compounds show significant separation signals with chemical shifts and integration, which can be measured by NMR, HPLC, MS for sugar qualification and quantification.


According to the invention, the isotope labelled compounds are first synthesized to provide standard compounds (including SYBIMs, SYBQXs and SYBHZs, wherein Y is an isotope) by an appropriate measurement such as NMR, LC, GC, HPLC or MS measurement. The lowest level to be detected in the methods using these compounds for saccharide analysis is 10−6˜10−3 mole by NMR and in 10−9˜10−5 mole by LC and MS measurement.


According to the invention, these compounds may be synthesized in one-pot by using benzimidazole as a linker between the sugar moiety and the function providing moiety, such as the method disclosed in Lin et al. (“Using Molecular Iodine in Direct Oxidative Condensation of Aldoses with Diamines: an Improved Synthesis of Aldo-benzimidazoles and Aldo-baogtunudazikes for Carbohydrate Analysis”, J. Org. Chem. 73: 3848-3853, 2008), which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. According to the invention, these compounds may be used for any purposes.


In the invention, the novel SYBIM derivatives can be prepared by Y-phenyldiamine and Y-phenylhydrazine according to Scheme 1

In certain examples of the present invention, various chemical shifts of sugar-FBIMs derivatives (i.e., SYBIMs wherein Y is 19F) in 19F-NMR were found (data not shown). The mixtures of various sugar-FBIMs can be analyzed by 19F-NMR, and the results (not shown) indicating 11 separated peaks (representing Gal, GalNHAc, GalA, Fuc, Glc, GlcA, Man, Xyl, Rib, Rhamn, Ara, Sia and KDO respectively) by 19F-NMR when nine kinds of sugar-5FBIMs (˜120 ppm) and two sugar-6FBQXs (˜110 ppm) were randomly mixed. Therefore, these sugar-FBIMs can be used as standard compounds for saccharide identification and quantification.


SYBIMs can be used as standard agents for glycan analysis. Due to the different polarity of sugar-5FBIMs, 5FBIM scarring strong UV absorption at 280 nm could be separated by LC to facilitate sugar separation and identification (data not shown). In addition, the sugar-5,6F2BIMs could also be separated by LC to facilitate sugar separation and identification (data not shown). The lowest level of SYBIMs to be detected is 10−6˜10−3 mole by NMR, and 10−9˜10−5 mole by LC and MS measurement (data not shown).


Enantiomeric pair of D-sugar-FBIM/L-sugar-FBIM with chiral shift reagent (Europium tri[3-(trifluoromethylhydroxy-methylene)-(+)-camphorate) was identified by 19F-NMR could be separated.


According to the invention, the structures of oligo-/poly-saccharides could be well analyzed by the SYBIM derivatives using a pectrometry such as NMR, MS, LC, GC and/or HPLC. In some particular examples of the invention, the spectrometry is MALDI-MS, ESI-MS, GC/MS, MS/MS, CE, HPLC, FPLC, IR, Ramon or any other suitable technique. Per-methylated oligo-/poly-glycan-BIMs (e.g. pSYBIMs) were analyzed for tandem mass spectrometry (MS-MS) and GC-MS to obtain the linkages information. The overall glycan structures could not be found in detail by using the two traditional methods. However in the invention, for example, alpha-/beta-anomeric center at C-1 position, stereoisomers of saccharides and D-/L-configuration could be analyzed in the invention, using the isotope labelled compounds in combination of IR NMR, MS, LC, GC, IR, Raman or enzymatic methods. Similarly, UV/fluorescent labeled SYBIMs should be a useful tool to facilitate the glycans separation and structural identification by using enzymatic degradation to analyze the sugar types, linkages and L-/D-forms. For example, maltohexose-BBIM (M6-NAIM) can be synthsized and used as a substrate for structural identification of a saccharide. The other glycan labeling reagents such as 2AA, 2AB and 2AP should also be used. For instance, the various aldoses are labeled with labeling reagent (2AB) at sugar reducing end by reductive amination with NaBH3CN as a dye (see Scheme 2). These 2AB (also called “dye” in Scheme 2) labeled glycans and 2AB glycan labeling kits can be purchased and be used for saccharide analysis and structural determination at the same time SYBIM labeled glycans such as a 2AB labeled glycan can be used for glycan sequencing by enzymatic approach.

In the present invention, the SYBIM is a key intermedia with simply (in one-step method), safe (with no reductant need, as compared with a toxic reductant, NaBH3CN, by reductive amination), environmental friendly (with no salts formation, as compared with salts remained in reductive amination reaction) and straightforward (using SYBIMs directly without a desalt or pre-column treatment to avoid the loss of samples).


In one example of the invention, the conversion of fetuin glycans to naphthimidazole (NAIM) derivatives is established by the iodine-promoted oxidative condensation of glycan with 2,3-naphthalenediamine for N-glycan identification by linear ion trap-Fourier transform mass spectrometer (LTQ-FTMS) and liquid chromatography. NAIM derivatization is particularly effective in improving the detection of sialylated glycans. No cleavage of the glycosidic bond occurred under such mild reaction conditions. In MS measurement, an increase of signal intensity was obtained by sialylated-N-glycan-BBIMs (or called sialylated-N-glycan-NAIMs), and improved S/N ratio was also achieved for NAIM derivated N-glycans.


Accordingly, the present invention provides a valuable tool for low abundance glycan identification in complex samples by SYBIM derivatives using NMR, MS, LC, GC, IR, Raman, etc. for structural analysis of saccharides. This invention can also be used to facilitate the characterization and analysis of novel glycans by using SYBIMs in combination of a LC/MS/NMR analysis. In one example of the invention, a rapid method for identification of N-/O-glycans and other type glycans is provided.


The present invention provides a method for enzymatic analysis of glycosidase activity or its inhibitors by using SYBIMs as substrates. In one example of the invention, the oligo-/poly-glycans can be labeled as SYBIM derivatives for its structural analysis by enzymatic assays. In one example of the invention, various linkages of oligosaccharideBBIMs (maltohexoseBBIM, larminarihexoseBBIM, cellohexoseBBIM; 1 mg/each) were prepared. These glycanBBIMs were degraded by special enzymes to learn the real structures of glycans, for example, α-amylase, endo-β-1,3-glucanase and cellulase, respectively. A peak at −116.88 ppm representing the maltohexo-5FBIM was observed in 19F-NMR spectrum (corresponding to the peak at 4.2 min found in LC; data not shown). Accordingly, the SYBIMs can be used as substrates for enzymatic analysis of glycosidase activity or its inhibitors in combination of an enzyme activity assay or inhibition ability assay, which may be used for drug screening system, wherein the SYBIMs may be replaced for P-nitrophenyl-β-D-glucopyranoside as a substrate. Therefore, the SYBIMs provide an alternative method for activity assay.


Referring to FIG. 1 showing a scheme for preparation of a neoglycopeptide or neoglycoprotein containing benzimidazole, a DAB having the structure below is used to be linked to an amino acid building block:




embedded image


In one example of the invention, DAB-peptides were obtained by solid phase synthesizer. The DAB linker was set at Asn (N-glycoprotein) or Thr/Ser (O-glycoprotein). Neoglycopeptides/neoglycoproteins, such as N-Glycan-peptide-BIMs and O-Glycan-peptide-BIMs, can be formed by glycans and DAB-peptides. The resulting solution was precipitated and centrifuged to obtain the products, which can be lyophilized to give the pellets of N-Glycan-peptide-BIMs and O-Glycan-peptide-BIMs.


In the invention, the SYBIM derivatives, including glycopeptides or glycoproteins, can be linked to one or more functional groups (e.g. a peptide, a protein, a biotin, a FITC, a dye, a halogen and etc.) and other solid support (such resin, nano particle, plate and chip) to enrich the release or interaction with a protein of the glycan. In some examples of the invention, the glycosylation sites of glycoproteins include Asn; Lys; Arg (N-Type); Thr; Ser; Tyr (O-Type); Cys (S-Type) and Asp; Glu (E-Type). Accordingly, the present invention provides a simple method for preparing the SYBIM derivatives with various functions as desired.


Furthermore, the invention provides a method for glycan sequencing by stepwise chemical degradation of SYBIM. More particularly, the method comprises the following steps: (i) attaching a first benzimidazole-like compound to a reducing end of the glycan(N) to obtain a modified glycan(N); (ii) subjecting the modified glycan(N) to a hydrolysis reaction to obtain a first monosacharide modified by the first benzimidazole-like compound, and a glycan(N−1) comprising N−1 monosacharide subunits; (iii) attaching a second benzimidazole-like compound different from the first benzimidazole-like compound to a reducing end of the glycan(N−1) to obtain a modified glycan(N−1); and (iv) subjecting the modified glycan(N−1) to a hydrolysis reaction to obtain a second monosacharide modified by the second benzimidazole-like compound, and a glycan(N−2) comprising N−2 monosacharide subunits. One embodiment of the invention is illustrated in FIG. 2, which is established for sugar structural analysis. Accordingly, the invention also provides an automatic glycan synthesizer or sequencer based on the method of the invention.


The present invention is described more specifically with reference to the following examples. The following examples are given for the purpose of illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.


EXAMPLES
Instrumentation

The MALDI-TOFMS used to acquire the spectra is an Ultraflex II MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometer (Bruker Daltonik GmbH, Bremen, Germany). Typically, spectra were obtained by accumulating 800-1000 laser shots for quantification. Laser power was fixed in 35% and the pulsed ion extraction was adjusted at 250 ns. The NanoLC-ESI-FTMS experiments were done on a LTQ Orbitrap XL ETD mass spectrometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, San Jose, Calif.) equipped with a nanoelectrospray ion source (New Objective, Inc.), and accela LC system was used (Thermo Fisher Scientific, San Jose, Calif.). The sample solution was injected (5 μl) at 10 μl/min flow rate on to a self-packed pre-column (150 μm I.D.×30 mm, 5 μm, 200 Å). Chromatographic separation was performed on a self-packed reversed phase C18 nano-column (75 μm I.D.×200 mm, 2.5 μm, 90 Å), using 0.1% formic acid in water as mobile phase A and 0.1% formic acid in 80% acetonitrile as mobile phase B operated at 300 nl/min flow rate with gradient from 10% to 40% of mobile phase B. A full-scan MS condition applied with mass range m/z 320-4000, resolution 60,000 at m/z 400. Electrospray voltage was maintained at 1.8 kV and capillary temperature was set at 200° C. All nanoLC-ESI-FTMS was converted to [M+H]+ by using Xtract (Thermo Fisher Scientific, San Jose, Calif.) and combine all MS spectra to single spectrum. The LaChrom Elite HPLC (Hitachi, Japan) was used to monitor glycan-NAIMs. Samples were dissolved in a HPLC-grade H2O. A phosphate buffer (100 mM, pH 5.0) solution with 20% of MeOH was used prior to the purification process of the labeled glycans. Reverse-phase C18 column (4.6×250 mm) with flow rate 0.8 ml/min and UV with the wavelength at 330 nm were used to collect glycan-YBIMs from the reaction mixture. NMR studies, 1H/13C NMR and other 1D and 2D experiments were performed on a Bruker Fourier transform spectrometer (AV-600) equipped with a 5 mm DCI dual cryoprobe. 19F NMR experiments were performed on a Bruker Fourier transform spectrometer (470 MHz). Spectra were obtained at 298 K with solutions of sugar-FBIMs/FBQXs/FBHZs in D2O, MeOH-d4, DMSO-d6, acetic acid-d4 and the trifluoritoluene (−63.72 ppm) or trifluoroacetic acid (−76.55 ppm) was added as an internal standard for calibration. Others spectrometers such as GC (Polaris Q), IR and Raman are also useful for the measurement of SYBIMs.

Example 12

A scheme of the method for determining the sequence of a glycan is given in FIG. 2. For example, MaltohexoseBBIM was prepared by mixed of maltohexose (10 mg) and 2,3-naphthalenediamine (10 mg) with catalytic amount of iodine (1 mg) in acetic acid (1 mL) at room temperature for 12 hour. The MaltohexoseBBIM (6 mg) was partial hydrolysis by acidic solution to form the GlcBBIM (no. 1 sugar) and maltopentose. The maltopentose was mixed with 4-fluorophenyldiamine (1 mg) with catalytic amount of iodine (1 mg) in acetic acid (1 mL) at room temperature for 12 hour to form the MaltopentoseFBIM and then the residue was further partial hydrolysis by acidic solution to form the GlcFBIM (no. 2 sugar) and maltotetraose. Following the stepwise tagging and degradation process the GlcF2BIM (no. 3 sugar), GlcClBIM (no. 4 sugar), GlcCl2BIM (no. 5 sugar), GlcBrBIM (no. 6 sugar) were obtained for NMR, HPLC, LC/MS analysis to identify the sequence of glycan. The reaction can be finished by one pot process (multiple reactions in one flask) before analyze and identify the sequence of glycan by comparison of SYBIMs or through the one by one LC/MS, LC/NMR to identify the sequence of glycan by measurement of SYBIMs. This glycan sequencing method can be extended for an automatic glycan sequencer (continuing tagging/degradation and analysis to speed the structural identification of glycan).
