Templated chemistry offers the prospect of addressing specificity challenges occurring in bioconjugation reactions. Here, we show two peptide-templated amide-bond forming reactions that enable the concurrent labelling of two different membrane proteins with two different peptide nucleic acid () barcodes. The reaction system is based on the mutually selective coiled coil interaction between two thioester-linked -peptide conjugates and two cysteine peptides serving as genetically encoded peptide tags. Orthogonal coiled coil templated covalent labelling is highly specific, quantitative and proceeds within a minute. To demonstrate the usefulness, we evaluated receptor internalisation of two membranous receptors EGFR (epidermal growth factor) and ErbB2 (epidermal growth factor receptor 2) by first staining -tagged proteins with fluorophore-DNA conjugates and then erasing signals from non-internalized receptors toehold-mediated strand displacement.
模板化学为解决生物共轭反应中出现的特异性挑战提供了前景。在此,我们展示了两种肽模板化的酰胺键形成反应,可实现用两种不同的肽核酸(PNA)条形码同时标记两种不同的膜蛋白。该反应体系基于两个硫酯连接的α-肽共轭物与两个作为基因编码肽标签的半胱氨酸肽之间的相互选择性卷曲螺旋相互作用。正交卷曲螺旋模板化共价标记具有高度特异性、定量性,且在一分钟内即可完成。为证明其有用性,我们通过先用荧光团-DNA共轭物对α-标签蛋白进行染色,然后通过链置换介导的链置换消除未内化受体的信号,来评估两种膜受体表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)和表皮生长因子受体2(ErbB2)的受体内化情况。
