The preparation of a novel fluorescent lipid II-based substrate for transglycosylases (TGases) is described. This substrate has characteristic structural features including a shorter lipid chain, a fluorophore tag at the end of the lipid chain rather than on the peptide chain, and no labeling with a radioactive atom. This fluorescent substrate is readily utilized in TGase activity assays to characterize TGases and also to evaluate the activities of TGase inhibitors.
本文描述了一种新型荧光脂质 II 基底物用于转糖苷酶(TGases)的制备。这种底物具有特征性的结构特征,包括较短的脂质链、脂质链末端的荧光团标记而不是肽链上的标记,以及不标记放射性原子。这种荧光底物可方便地用于 TGase 活性测定,以表征 TGase,也可用于评估 TGase 抑制剂的活性。
