Chemoselective Dual Labeling of Native and Recombinant Proteins
2017
The attachment of two different functionalities in a site-selective fashion represents a great challenge in protein chemistry. We report site specific dual functionalizations of peptides and proteins capitalizing on reactivity differences of cysteines in their free (thiol) and protected, oxidized (disulfide) forms. The dual functionalization of interleukin 2 and EYFP proceeded with no loss of bioactivity in a stepwise fashion applying maleimide and disulfide rebridging allyl-sulfone groups. In order to ensure broader applicability of the functionalization strategy, a novel, short peptide sequence that introduces a disulfide bridge was designed and site-selective dual labeling in the presenc…
Site-Specific Dual Labeling of Proteins on Cysteine Residues with Chlorotetrazines
2018
International audience; Dual-labeled biomolecules constitute a new generation of bioconjugates with promising applications in therapy and diagnosis. Unfortunately, the development of these new families of biologics is hampered by the technical difficulties associated with their construction. In particular, the site specificity of the conjugation is critical as the number and position of payloads can have a dramatic impact on the pharmacokinetics of the bioconjugate. Herein, we introduce dichlorotetrazine as a trivalent platform for the selective double modification of proteins on cysteine residues. This strategy is applied to the dual labeling of albumin with a macrocyclic chelator for nucl…
