Description

Method for chemical synthesis of Vibrio vulnificus biotype 2, serogroup A O-antigen disaccharide fragment TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a method for chemical synthesis of Vibrio vulnificus biotype 2, serogroup A O-antigen disaccharide fragment, in particular a hetero-modified polyamino oligosaccharide with a reducing end assembled amino linker, belongs to the field of chemistry. BACKGROUND

[0002] Vibrio vulnificus is a gram-negative bacterium widely distributed in seawater and seafood (C. Baker-Austin et al., Trends Microbiol. 2020, 28, 81-82), and is one of the three major Vibrio species that threaten human health (C. Baker-Austin et al., Nat. Rev. Dis. Primers. 2018, 4, 1-19). Vibrio vulnificus infection can cause severe sepsis and gangrene and other diseases, with a mortality rate of up to 50% (WHO, Food & Agriculture Org., 2021). The harm of Vibrio vulnificus is attributed to multiple pathogenic factors, including capsular polysaccharide (CPS), lipopolysaccharide (LPS), pili, flagella, cytotoxins, enzymes, hemolysins, and cytolysins. In clinical practice, Vibrio vulnificus can be divided into three biotypes (1-3) (O. James D et al., In The biology of vibrios. 2006, 349-366). Currently, about 40 highly virulent pathogenic strains have been found in clinical practice. Most human infections with Vibrio vulnificus are associated with biotype 1 and 2 strains, and the mortality rate of biotype 2 infection is higher. Notably, biotype 2 strains are the only strain of zoonosis (C. Amaro et al., In Vibrio spp. Infections. 2023, 175-194; F. Roig et al., Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 2023, 18, 373-383). In addition, biotype 2 strains are further divided into serogroups A and E (C. Amaro et al., Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 1996, 62, 1454-1457; E. Sanjuán et al., Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 2004, 70, 7024-7032).

[0003] In general, infection of V. vulnificus can be treated with antibiotics combined with surgery, and amputation is necessary in some cases (K. Coerdt et al., A. Cutis. 2021, 107, E12-E17). Recent reports show that the use of antibiotics to control V. vulnificus infection is very limited, with repeated outbreaks of the disease and the isolation of multiple antibiotic-resistant strains. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop vaccines against V. vulnificus (F. Roig et al., Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 2023, 18, 373-383). Currently, research on V. vulnificus vaccines is mainly limited to fish (Q. Ji, et al., Immunol. Lett. 2020, 226, 46-54). The existing veterinary vaccine for V. vulnificus is based on whole organisms, consisting of live attenuated or inactivated organisms (S. Lee, et al., Infect. Immun. 2006, 74, 694-702). In recent years, some new V. vulnificus vaccines have appeared, including DNA vaccines and vector vaccines, but have not yet been introduced into the market. Researchers have used a variety of methods to develop human V. vulnificus vaccines, including whole cell and attenuated live vaccines (Q. Ji et al., Aquaculture. 2022, 560, 738560). However, there is still controversy about the long-term preventive efficacy of V. vulnificus, and no effective vaccine against human infection with V. vulnificus has been marketed so far (C. Baker-Austin et al., Nat. Rev. Dis. Primers. 2018, 4, 1-19). On the other hand, since many antigenic determinants in inactivated vaccines can induce non-specific immune responses, subunit vaccines based on polysaccharides and membrane proteins on the surface of V. vulnificus are considered to provide potential and more effective immune protection (G. Pettis et al., Int. J. Mol. Sci. 2020, 21, 3259). The lipopolysaccharide O-antigen of V. vulnificus biotype 1 and 2 shows strong structural specificity, making it a potential immune target for the development of V. vulnificus vaccines (C. Baker-Austin et al., Trends Microbiol. 2020, 28, 81-82). H. Zhang et al. reported that the conjugate of V. vulnificus biotype 1 (MO6-24 and BO62316) O-antigen with carrier protein CRM197 can effectively induce T cell-dependent immune responses in mice (H. Zhang et al., JACS Au. 2021, 2, 97-108.).Collado et al. measured antibody titers and bactericidal / bacteriostatic activity in eel mucus and serum in a study and demonstrated that the O antigen of Vibrio vulnificus biovar 2 is a potential immunization target (R. Collado et al., Dis. Aquat. Org. 2000, 43, 91-101). However, O-antigens obtained via the biological route often exhibit structural heterogeneity, often with residual lipid A and other cellular impurities, which can reduce the safety and efficiency of the candidate vaccine (P. H. Seeberger, Chem. Rev. 2021, 121, 3598-3626; C. Qin et al., Curr. Opin. Chem. Biol. 2024, 78, 102424). Therefore, the preparation of well-defined oligosaccharides corresponding to O-antigens by chemical methods has become a valuable tool for the continuous development of glyco vaccines (C. Whitfield et al., J. Biol. Chem. 2020, 295, 10593-10609; R. van der Put et al., ACS Cent. Sci. 2022, 8, 449-460).

[0004] The O-antigen of Vibrio vulnificus biovar 2 serogroup A is composed of a trisaccharide repeating unit with four aminos and three carboxyls: [→4)-β-D-GlcpNAc3NAcylAN-(1→4)-α-L-GalpNAmA-(1→3)-α-D-QuipNAc-(1→]. The four aminos are functionalized by three different groups, including 2-O-acetyl-4-D-malonyl, ethylamidine and two acetylaminos, and one of the three carboxyls is functionalized to form a carboxamide group (A. Shashkov et al., Carbohydr. Res. 2009, 344, 2005-2006.). The disaccharide fragment [→4)-α-L-GalpNAmA-(1→3)-α-D-QuipNAc-(1→] with the rare ethylamidine modification is considered as a potential immunological target (C. Qin et al., Chin. J. Nat. Med. 2022, 20, 401-420; G. Tian et al., Molecules. 2023, 28, 7112.). The chemical synthesis of oligosaccharides with a single structure and high purity can facilitate the study of structure-activity relationship. So far, people have been committed to the synthesis of rare deoxyamino sugars, the assembly of complex glycans and the installation of rare modification groups. Even so, the chemical synthesis of this disaccharide is still a challenge due to the rare L-galactosamine acid, two 1,2-cis glycosidic bonds and ethylamidine (J. Harjani et al., 2011, 76, 1683-1691). In addition, the selection of reducing end assembly of orthogonal linking arms facilitates conjugation or immobilization in biological research. Considering that the active part of the linking arm may affect the synthesis efficiency of the disaccharide, it is necessary to evaluate the practicability of different linking arms. Therefore, the chemical synthesis of this structure needs overall route design, including the selection of protecting groups, the selection of modification group introduction timing, the efficiency and selectivity of glycosylation reaction and other key links. The synthesis will play a key role in the activity evaluation of Vibrio vulnificus biovar 2 serogroup A O-antigen disaccharide fragment and the development of carbohydrate vaccines.
