An analog of Mycobacterium tuberculosis lipoarabinomannan (LAM) has been synthesized containing the characteristic structures of all of its three major components; that is, a mannosylated phosphatidylinositol moiety, an oligomannan, and an oligoarabinan. A highly convergent strategy was developed that is applicable to the synthesis of other LAM analogs. The synthetic miniature LAM should be useful for various biological studies.
已经合成了结核分枝杆菌脂阿拉伯甘露聚糖(LAM)的类似物,其中包含其三个主要成分的所有特征结构; 即,甘露糖基化磷脂酰肌醇部分,寡甘露聚糖和寡阿拉伯聚糖。开发了一种高度会聚的策略,该策略适用于其他 LAM 类似物的合成。这种合成的微型 LAM 应该对各种生物学研究有用。
