The evaluation of mpk (BVMPK) lipopolysaccharide (LPS) recognition by DC-SIGN, a key lectin in mediating immune homeostasis, has been here performed. A fine chemical dissection of BVMPK LPS components, attained by synthetic chemistry combined to spectroscopic, biophysical, and computational techniques, allowed to finely map the LPS epitopes recognized by DC-SIGN. Our findings reveal BVMPK's role in immune modulation via DC-SIGN, targeting both the LPS O-antigen and the core oligosaccharide. Furthermore, when framed within medical chemistry or drug design, our results could lead to the development of tailored molecules to benefit the hosts dealing with inflammatory diseases.
我们在此对介导免疫稳态的关键凝集素DC-SIGN对mpk(BVMPK)脂多糖(LPS)的识别进行了评估。通过将合成化学与光谱、生物物理和计算技术相结合,对BVMPK LPS成分进行精细的化学剖析,从而能够精确绘制出DC-SIGN识别的LPS表位。我们的研究结果揭示了BVMPK通过DC-SIGN在免疫调节中的作用,其靶向LPS O抗原和核心寡糖。此外,从药物化学或药物设计的角度来看,我们的结果可能会促使开发定制分子,以造福于患有炎症性疾病的宿主。
