Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of organic chemical synthesis, in particular to a non-natural sugar and a synthesis method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Glycosylation modification has important functions, and it is of great significance to observe glycosylation modification. In cells, metabolic labeling with chemically reported non-natural sugars has been widely used for glycan imaging and glycoproteomics analysis. In vitro, chemical enzymatic method adds chemically reported non-natural sugars to the sugar chain under the action of glycosyltransferase for further research.

[0003] Non-natural sugars are necessary for metabolic labeling and chemical enzymatic labeling. They are divided into three categories:

[0004] a. Non-natural sugars without protecting groups: can be used for metabolic labeling but require high concentration, and are also the synthesis substrates of non-natural nucleoside sugars used by chemical enzymatic method;

[0005] b. Fully acetylated sugars: developed to overcome the poor cell permeability of non-natural sugars without protecting groups, significantly reducing the required concentration for metabolic labeling. Existing fully acetylated protected non-natural sugar probes have been commercialized and are sold by companies such as Sigma-Aldrich and Click Chemical Tools.

[0006] However, in 2018, it was first discovered that fully acetylated sugars undergo non-enzymatic S side reactions with the thiol group of protein cysteine, introducing false positive signals for imaging, mass spectrometry identification, and other applications.

[0007] c. Partially protected non-natural sugars: after the discovery of S side reactions, partially acylated non-natural sugars emerged, which can easily pass through the cell membrane to achieve efficient glycometabolic labeling while not introducing S side reactions.

[0008] At present, there are mainly two methods for preparing non-natural sugars with azide at the N-acyl site and without protection of the hydroxyl group. Method one is to first synthesize sugar derivatives with halogen at the N-acyl site, and then introduce azide into the N-acyl site of the sugar by replacing halogen with azide. Method two is to first synthesize azidoacetic acid, and then couple azidoacetic acid and amino sugar to obtain non-natural sugar with azide at the N-acyl site. Non-natural sugars containing other orthogonal groups (such as alkyne) and without protection of the hydroxyl group are synthesized by the strategy of directly coupling amino sugar and small molecules containing orthogonal groups in the above method two.

[0009] But both of these two methods have disadvantages. In the first method, sodium azide is in large excess and the reaction needs to be heated, which has the risk of explosion. In the second method, the synthesis of azidoacetic acid uses iodacetic acid and excess sodium azide as raw materials. In order to improve the yield of azidoacetic acid, the aqueous solution containing excess sodium azide needs to be acidified and the azidoacetic acid needs to be extracted with an organic solvent. This operation has the risk of explosion. Moreover, azidoacetic acid has a low boiling point and is volatile, so it needs to be handled carefully and can only be synthesized in small quantities. Unprotected unnatural sugars have a large polarity, so impurities and products often co-elute when using silica gel column chromatography for purification. Therefore, repeated column chromatography is needed to obtain sufficiently pure unprotected sugars. A few reports use P-2 gel columns to purify unprotected sugars, but this operation is time-consuming and the gel column is expensive and can only be used for small-scale product purification.

[0010] Currently, partially protected unnatural sugars are divided into two categories: 1,3-bisacylated unnatural sugars and 1,6-bisacylated unnatural sugars. There are many reported examples of 1,3-bisacylated unnatural sugars, and only one example of 1,6-bisacylated unnatural sugar, 1,6-Pr2GalNAz. The synthesis of 1,3-bisacylated unnatural sugars is first to synthesize an unnatural sugar without a protecting group, which is used as a starting material. The 4 and 6 positions of the sugar are protected with propylidene, and then the 1 and 3 positions of the hydroxyl group are acylated. Finally, the propylidene protection is removed to obtain 1,3-bisacylated unnatural sugar. In this synthesis route, when synthesizing unnatural sugars without protecting groups, the above problems are faced, and when synthesizing 1,3-bisacylated unnatural sugars from unnatural sugars without protecting groups, the overall yield is low. When synthesizing 1,6-Pr2GalNAz, azidoacetic acid is needed as a raw material, and the synthesis of azidoacetic acid faces the above problems.

[0011] At present, there are two major problems in the field of chemical enzyme labeling and sugar metabolism labeling: first, some of the unnatural sugars used in metabolic labeling (such as fully acetylated sugars) will introduce false positive results, and the structure of the sugar needs to be optimized and designed. Partially protected sugars are just starting to be studied and need to be promoted urgently. Second, the existing methods for synthesizing these unnatural sugars have many disadvantages, including safety, yield, and difficulty in large-scale preparation.

[0012] For the first type of problem, all the fully acetylated unnatural sugars introduce S side reactions when used for metabolic labeling. It has been reported that partially acetylated unnatural sugars can avoid S side reactions and improve the efficiency of unnatural sugars crossing the cell membrane into the cell. In the reported data, these partially acetylated unnatural sugars include 1,3-Ac2GalNAz, 1,3-Pr2GalNAz, 1,3-Pr2ManNAz, 1,3-Pr2GlcNAz, 1,3-Pr2GlcNAl and 1,6-Pr2GalNAz. Other new types of partially acetylated sugars with important value in sugar metabolic labeling have not been reported, and their synthesis methods need to be developed, and their application research needs to be carried out.

[0013] For the second type of problem, the existing method for synthesizing unnatural sugars has many shortcomings, and new synthesis methods need to be developed to synthesize important unnatural sugars in a more economical and efficient way. For example, the synthesis of unnatural sugars containing azide requires the use of a large excess of sodium azide, which has the risk of explosion. The reaction needs to be heated, which is complicated and not safe. The product of the reaction needs to be repeatedly purified by column, which is high in cost and difficult to carry out large-scale synthesis.

[0014] The above two types of problems seriously restrict the application research related to unnatural sugars, therefore, new strategies need to be developed to solve the above two bottleneck problems. SUMMARY

[0024] For the per-trimethylsilyl trimethylsilyl-protected unnatural sugar with orthogonal groups of the mannose type, two equivalents of ammonium acetate are added in a mixed solvent of dichloromethane and methanol to selectively remove the trimethylsilyl protecting groups at the 1st and 6th positions at the same time, ester bond protection is performed on the 1st and 6th positions in pyridine, and then the trimethylsilyl protecting groups at the 3rd and 4th positions of the sugar are removed to obtain a 1,6-biacylated unnatural sugar derivative of the mannose type.

[0037] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the following further describes the embodiments of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0038] It should be noted that all the expressions of "first" and "second" in the embodiments of the present application are used to distinguish two same name non-identical entities or non-identical parameters, and it can be seen that "first" and "second" are only for the convenience of description and should not be understood as a limitation on the embodiments of the present application. The subsequent embodiments will not be described one by one.

[0039] The embodiment of the present application discloses a method for synthesizing unnatural sugar, comprising: at room temperature, the hydroxyl group of the amino sugar is fully trimethylsilyl protected, the amino group on the sugar is selectively exposed, and after the coupling and conversion of the amino group at room temperature, the full trimethylsilyl protected unnatural sugar with orthogonal groups is obtained. The orthogonal group of the full trimethylsilyl protected unnatural sugar with orthogonal groups is any one of azide, terminal alkyne, terminal alkene, cyclopropene, trans-cyclooctene and cyclooctyne. The trimethylsilyl protecting group of the full trimethylsilyl protected unnatural sugar with orthogonal groups is removed to obtain an unnatural sugar without a protecting group. Among them, the unnatural sugar without a protecting group can be any one of GalNAz, GlcNAz, ManNAz, GalNAl, GlcNAl and ManNAl; in the synthesis process of GalNAz, GlcNAz and ManNAz, the trimethylsilyl protecting group is removed by hydrogen ion exchange resin, and the final product is precipitated from the solvent; in the synthesis process of ManNAl, the trimethylsilyl protecting group is removed by silica gel column chromatography purification.

[0040] In some embodiments of the present application, the hydroxyl groups at positions 1 and 6 of the full trimethylsilyl protected unnatural sugar with orthogonal groups are protected by a hydrophobic group to obtain a partially acylated unnatural sugar. The hydrophobic group can be any one of acetyl, propionyl, butyryl and valeryl. For full trimethylsilyl protected unnatural sugar with orthogonal groups of galactose type and glucose type, pyridine is used as the solvent, four equivalents of carboxylic acid and a large excess of the corresponding anhydride are added, the trimethylsilyl protecting groups at positions 1 and 6 of the full trimethylsilyl protected unnatural sugar are exchanged into corresponding ester bonds, and after the trimethylsilyl protecting groups at positions 3 and 4 are removed by hydrogen ion exchange resin, 1,6-bisacylated unnatural sugar is obtained; for full trimethylsilyl protected unnatural sugar with orthogonal groups of mannose type, two equivalents of ammonium acetate are added in a mixed solvent of dichloromethane and methanol to selectively remove the trimethylsilyl protecting groups at positions 1 and 6 at the same time, the ester bond protection at positions 1 and 6 is carried out in pyridine, and then the trimethylsilyl protecting groups at positions 3 and 4 of the sugar are removed to obtain 1,6-bisacylated mannose type unnatural sugar derivative (which also belongs to unnatural sugar).

[0041] Some embodiments of the present application also disclose a partially acylated unnatural sugar for metabolic labeling, the unnatural sugar being a six-carbon sugar and a pyranose structure, and having acyl modifications on the hydroxyl groups at the 1st and 6th positions of the sugar. The unnatural sugar is a 1-hydroxyl and 6-hydroxyl protected unnatural sugar with a hydrophobic group, wherein the unnatural sugar is generally a derivative of a partially hydroxyl-protected six-carbon sugar. The hydrophobic group is an acetyl group, a propionyl group, a butyryl group, or a valeryl group. The above-mentioned partially acylated unnatural sugar for metabolic labeling is made by the above-mentioned synthesis method, i.e., the hydroxyl groups of the sugar are fully trimethylsilyl (TMS) protected, and the amino group on the sugar is selectively exposed; the amino group is coupled and chemically converted to obtain a fully TMS-protected unnatural sugar with a orthogonal group. Starting from the fully TMS-protected unnatural sugar with a orthogonal group, the unprotected unnatural sugar and the partially acylated unnatural sugar can be efficiently synthesized. The unprotected unnatural sugar is GalNAz, GlcNAz, ManNAz, ManNAl, and ManNProc. The partially acylated unnatural sugar is any one of 1,6-Ac2GalNAz, 1,6-Pr2GalNAz, 1,6-Bu2GalNAz, 1,6-Ac2GlcNAz, 1,6-Pr2GlcNAz, 1,6-Bu2GlcNAz, 1,6-Ac2ManNAz, 1,6-Pr2ManNAz, 1,6-Bu2ManNAz, 1,6-Pr2ManNAl, and 1,6-Pr2ManNProc.

[0042] Some embodiments of the present application also disclose a sugar metabolic labeling kit comprising the above-mentioned partially acylated unnatural sugar. The 1st and 6th hydroxyl groups of the partially acylated unnatural sugar are protected. The partially acylated unnatural sugar is a 1st and 6th position-protected six-carbon sugar analog. The partially acylated unnatural sugar is a 1st and 6th position hydroxyl group-protected unnatural sugar with a hydrophobic group. It can achieve sugar metabolic labeling of any one of HeLa cells, 3T3 cells, CHO cells, and MCF-7 cells.

[0043] The above-mentioned embodiments of the present application are based on a full TMS (trimethylsilyl) protection strategy, and a method for efficiently synthesizing a large amount of unprotected unnatural sugar (target compound category 1) and 1,6-bis-acylated unnatural sugar (target compound category 2) is developed.

[0044] In general, embodiments of the present application start from amino sugars containing six carbon atoms, protect all hydroxyl groups on the sugar with TMS, selectively expose the amino group on the sugar, and further couple and transform to obtain a fully TMS-protected unnatural sugar with orthogonal groups. The selective exposure of the amino group in the fully TMS-protected method can avoid the participation or interference of the hydroxyl groups on the sugar in the subsequent coupling reaction, and on the other hand, the reaction can be carried out in a solvent without hydroxyl groups, avoiding the participation or interference of the hydroxyl groups in the solvent in the coupling reaction (when the hydroxyl groups are not protected by TMS, the amino sugar can only be dissolved in a solvent containing hydroxyl groups, such as water and methanol). Therefore, in the fully TMS-protected method, the amount of molecules required for coupling with the amino group on the sugar is small (one or slightly more than one equivalent), the coupling efficiency is high (almost quantitative), and the solvent used is easy to remove by reduced pressure (usually dichloromethane is used as the coupling solvent). The fully TMS-protected unnatural sugar with orthogonal groups is an important intermediate for the synthesis of target compound category 1 and target compound category 2 in this patent.

[0045] The fully TMS-protected unnatural sugar obtained by the above method can be purified without column chromatography, and the TMS protecting group can be removed by hydrogen ion exchange resin to obtain an unnatural sugar without protecting group (target compound category 1, GalNAz, GlcNAz, ManNAz and ManNAl have been successfully synthesized in large quantities). It should be particularly pointed out that when this synthesis method is used to synthesize GalNAz, GlcNAz and ManNAz, there is no chromatographic purification step in the middle, and the final product is precipitated from ethanol. When synthesizing ManNAl, precipitation cannot be used, but it can be quickly and cleanly purified by one-time silica gel column chromatography.

[0046] In addition, the fully TMS-protected unnatural sugar obtained by the above method can be purified by one-time simple silica gel column, and then obtained 1,6-bisacylated unnatural sugar through two simple reactions. Two technical routes are developed for different sugars:

[0047] For fully TMS-protected unnatural sugars of galactose type and glucose type, four equivalents of carboxylic acid and a large excess of corresponding anhydride are added in pyridine as solvent, and the TMS at positions 1 and 6 of the fully TMS-protected unnatural sugar is exchanged into corresponding ester bond, and after removing the TMS protecting groups at positions 3 and 4 by hydrogen ion exchange resin, 1,6-bisacylated unnatural sugar is obtained;

[0048] For the full TMS-protected non-natural sugar of the mannose type, two equivalents of ammonium acetate are added to selectively remove the TMS protecting groups at positions 1 and 6 of the sugar simultaneously in a mixed solvent of dichloromethane and methanol, and the ester bond protection is carried out at positions 1 and 6 in pyridine, followed by removal of the TMS protecting groups at positions 3 and 4 of the sugar to obtain the 1,6-bisacylated non-natural sugar derivative of the mannose type.

[0049] Based on the above synthesis strategy, the 1,6-bisacylated non-natural sugar (target compound category 2) including 1,6-Ac2GalNAz, 1,6-Pr2GalNAz, 1,6-Bu2GalNAz, 1,6-Ac2GlcNAz, 1,6-Pr2GlcNAz, 1,6-Bu2GlcNAz, 1,6-Ac2ManNAz, 1,6-Pr2ManNAz, 1,6-Bu2ManNAz, 1,6-Pr2ManNAl and 1,6-Pr2ManNProc can be synthesized with high efficiency.

[0050] It should be particularly pointed out that there are documents that synthesize 1,6-Pr2GalNAz from full TMS-protected GalNAz, but when synthesizing full TMS-protected GalNAz, azidoacetic acid needs to be used as a raw material. As described above, the synthesis of azidoacetic acid has the risk of explosion. The synthesis method disclosed in the embodiments of the present application avoids the need to synthesize azidoacetic acid and is systematically expanded to other sugars.

[0051] From a technical point of view, compared with the existing synthesis method, the advantages of the synthesis method disclosed in the embodiments of the present application are that the full TMS-protected sugar derivative has smaller polarity and has good solubility in many low-polarity solvents (such as dimethylformamide, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, petroleum ether, acetonitrile, etc.), which can facilitate various chemical transformations (such as replacing halogen with azide) to obtain various full TMS-protected non-natural sugars containing orthogonal groups. In the above synthesis method, all reactions are room temperature reactions, there is no process of chromatographic purification, and large-scale synthesis (10 grams) can be carried out. In the synthesis of non-natural sugars containing azide, only one equivalent of sodium azide is needed, the amount used is small, and the operation is safe.

[0052] From an application point of view, the synthesized 1,6-bisacylated sugar is easy to pass through the cell membrane and enter the cell, can effectively avoid the S side reaction in the sugar metabolism labeling test, and can also maintain a high metabolic efficiency.

[0053] In summary, the main purpose of the present application is to provide a method for synthesizing non-natural sugars in large quantities and with high efficiency, and to carry out application research. The newly reported 1,6-bisacylated non-natural sugar in the present application can improve the efficiency of sugar metabolism labeling while not introducing the S side reaction.

[0054] It should be noted that the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0055] Non-natural sugar: Chemical modification of natural monosaccharide, connecting azide, alkyne and other bio-orthogonal groups. Non-natural sugar can be taken up by cells, integrated into the sugar chain through the natural sugar metabolic pathway, and then labeled, imaged or enriched through bio-orthogonal reaction.

[0056] Bio-orthogonal reaction: refers to those chemical reactions that can be carried out in living cells or tissues without interfering with the biochemical reactions of the organism itself. It is used for the study of nucleic acids, proteins, sugars or lipids and other biological macromolecules.

[0057] The present application solves the problem of chemical synthesis of non-natural sugar reported in the sugar chemical enzyme labeling and metabolic labeling, and discloses a novel 1,6-bisacylated non-natural sugar.

[0058] The present application studies and improves the existing method for synthesizing non-natural sugar, develops a strategy based on full TMS protection, and develops a method for synthesizing a large amount of non-natural sugar without protection group; at the same time, starting from full TMS protected non-natural sugar, 1,6-bisacylated non-natural sugar can be synthesized with high efficiency. 1,6-bisacylated non-natural sugar can easily pass through the cell membrane, enter the cell, effectively avoid S side reaction in sugar metabolic labeling test, and also maintain high metabolic efficiency.

[0059] Specifically, the present application is from the amino sugar containing six carbon atoms, all the hydroxyl groups on the sugar are protected by TMS, and the amino group on the sugar is selectively exposed. After coupling with various small molecules, various full TMS protected acyl group substituted amino sugar derivatives are obtained. The full TMS protected sugar derivative has small polarity and good solubility in many low polarity solvents (such as dimethylformamide, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, petroleum ether, acetonitrile, etc.), which can be subjected to various chemical transformations (such as substitution of halogen with azide), to obtain various full TMS protected non-natural sugars (the full TMS protected non-natural sugar contains azide or alkyne and other orthogonal groups). In methanol, TMS protecting group is removed by using hydrogen ion exchange resin, filtered, concentrated, and then ethanol is added, and the solid separated is non-natural sugar without protection group. In the process of synthesizing non-natural sugar without protection group by the above method, all reactions are room temperature reactions, there is no process of chromatographic purification, and large-scale synthesis (10 grams) can be carried out. In the process of synthesizing non-natural sugar containing azide, only one equivalent of sodium azide is needed, the amount is small, and the operation is safe. Based on the TMS protection strategy, the applicant has synthesized GalNAz, GlcNAz, ManNAz and ManNAl in large quantities.

[0060] In the synthesis of unprotected unnatural sugars above, the full TMS protected unnatural sugar containing orthogonal groups is an important intermediate, from which 1,6-bisacylated unnatural sugars can be obtained in two simple steps. For the full TMS protected unnatural sugars of galactosamine and glucosamine types, in pyridine, four equivalents of carboxylic acid and excess anhydride are added, the TMS groups at 1 and 6 positions of the full TMS protected unnatural sugars are exchanged to the corresponding ester bonds, and after removal of the TMS groups at 3 and 4 positions, 1,6-bisacylated unnatural sugars are obtained; for the full TMS protected unnatural sugar of mannosamine type, in a mixture of dichloromethane and methanol, two equivalents of ammonium acetate are used to selectively remove the TMS groups at 1 and 6 positions of the sugar, and in pyridine, the ester bonds at 1 and 6 positions are protected, and then the TMS groups at 3 and 4 positions are removed, to obtain 1,6-bisacylated unnatural sugar derivatives of mannosamine type.

[0061] In the metabolic labeling experiments, it is found that 1,6-bisacylated sugars do not have S side reactions with proteins; at the same time, 1,6-bisacylated sugars have high metabolic labeling efficiency. In addition, compared with unprotected sugars, different ester bond protecting groups have different effects on the metabolic labeling efficiency, for example, acetyl group has little effect on the efficiency compared with propionyl group, but butyryl modification and propionyl modification can significantly improve the metabolic efficiency of unnatural sugars. Finally, 1,6-bispropionylated sugars can also be used for efficient metabolic labeling in mice in vivo.

[0062] In some embodiments of the present application, in the synthesis of unprotected unnatural sugars based on the full TMS strategy, the orthogonal groups contained are not limited to azide and alkyne groups, and unprotected unnatural sugars containing other orthogonal groups can also be synthesized by this strategy. Other orthogonal groups include, but are not limited to, terminal alkene, cyclopropene, trans-cyclooctene and cyclooctyne. Therefore, the synthesis of these unprotected unnatural sugars is also protected by this patent.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present application, in the synthesis of unprotected unnatural sugars based on the full TMS strategy, the substrates used are not limited to galactosamine derivatives, glucosamine derivatives and mannosamine derivatives, and other sugars containing amino groups can also be used as substrates for this type of synthesis. Therefore, the synthesis of these unprotected unnatural sugars is also protected by this patent.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present application, in the synthesis of partially acylated unnatural sugars based on the full TMS strategy, the acyl groups used are not limited to acetyl group, propionyl group and butyryl group, and other acyl groups can also be introduced by the method of this application. Therefore, other acylated partially acylated unnatural sugars are also protected by this patent.

[0065] In the first typical embodiment of the present application, a simple and efficient method is provided for synthesizing non-natural sugars without a protecting group, specifically GalNAz, GlcNAz, ManNAz and ManNAl, and synthesizing the above-mentioned partially acylated non-natural sugars.

[0066] In the second typical embodiment of the present application, a sugar metabolism labeling kit is provided, which comprises any of the above-mentioned partially acylated non-natural sugars.

[0067] In the third typical embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned partially acylated non-natural sugar or the above-mentioned kit is applied in sugar metabolism labeling. The use of the partially acylated non-natural sugar of the present application in metabolism labeling not only has a higher metabolic efficiency, but also does not have a side reaction with cysteine in a protein. In a preferred embodiment, the above-mentioned application comprises sugar metabolism labeling of any of the following cells: HeLa cells, MCF-7 cells, CHO cells and 3T3 cells. In a preferred embodiment, 1,6-Pr2GalNAz and 1,6-Pr2ManNAz are used for in vivo metabolism labeling of mice.

[0068] In the prior art, sodium azide is used in the synthesis of partially hydroxyl-protected non-natural sugar containing azide, which has an explosion risk, especially in large-scale synthesis, such as 10 grams, which has a higher explosion risk. The method for synthesizing 1,6-Pr2GalNAz in the present application is more efficient and safer than the synthesis method reported in the literature. Compared with other 1,3-bis-acylated non-natural sugars that have been reported, the 1,6-bis-acylated non-natural sugar of the present application is a better choice based on the mechanism of S-glycosylation modification side reaction on the protein thiol group and the stability of the partially acylated sugar. In the present application, 1,6-bis-acylated sugar is synthesized from a fully TMS-protected sugar, and the synthesis is simpler and more efficient.

[0069] The beneficial effects of the present application will be further illustrated in conjunction with specific examples.

The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum to give compound lb as an oil, which was used in the next step without purification.

[0075] 27.6 g of bromoacetic acid (200 mmol) and 25.3 g of HOSU (220 mmol) were dissolved in 220 mL of dichloromethane and the solution was cooled to -5°C. A solution of 45.3 g (220 mmol) of DCC in 50 mL of dichloromethane was added dropwise to the above solution over a period of 1 hour. After the addition was complete, the reaction was warmed to room temperature and stirred for 2 hours. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum to give a residue, which was treated with 200 mL of n-hexane and stirred thoroughly to give a mixture. The mixture was filtered and the filter cake was washed with n-hexane to give a white solid, which was dried under vacuum to give 36.0 g of crude 2-bromoacetate 2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-l-yl ester (4a). Compound 4a was used in the next step without purification. The entire amount of compound lb obtained in the previous step was dissolved in 200 mL of dichloromethane and the solution was cooled in an ice-water bath. Then, 33.3 g of 4a (140 mmol) was added.

[0151] Example 5: In vitro reaction of 1,6-Ac2GalNAz, 1,6-Pr2GalNAz, 1,6-Bu2GalNAz, 6-Ac2GlcNAz, 1,6-Pr2GlcNAz, 1,6-Bu2GlcNAz, 1,6-Ac2ManNAz, 1,6-Pr2ManNAz, 1,6-Bu2ManNAz with proteins.

[0152] To verify that nine partially acylated non-natural sugars (1,6-Ac2GalNAz, 1,6-Pr2GalNAz, 1,6-Bu2GalNAz, 6-Ac2GlcNAz, 1,6-Pr2GlcNAz, 1,6-Bu2GlcNAz, 1,6-Ac2ManNAz, 1,6-Pr2ManNAz, and 1,6-Bu2ManNAz) cannot spontaneously react with protein cysteine, fully acetylated non-natural sugars (Ac4GalNAz, Ac4GlcNAz, and Ac4ManNAz) were used as controls. These partially acylated non-natural sugars were incubated with HeLa cell lysates or single proteins at 37°C for 2 hours. The azide signal on the proteins was then detected by electrophoresis. The reaction results are shown below. Figure 1 .

[0153] Example 6: Metabolic labeling effect of 1,6-Ac2GalNAz, 1,6-Pr2GalNAz, 1,6-Bu2GalNAz, 6-Ac2GlcNAz, 1,6-Pr2GlcNAz, 1,6-Bu2GlcNAz, 1,6-Ac2ManNAz, 1,6-Pr2ManNAz, 1,6-Bu2ManNAz in living cells.

[0154] To verify the metabolic labeling effect of the above 1,6-biacylated unnatural sugars in living cells, the above different compounds were used to metabolically label HeLa cells. The specific operation steps are as follows:

[0155] 200 μM of 1,6-biacylated unnatural sugars and 2 mM unprotected sugars were added to the culture medium of HeLa cells for culture, and then the HeLa cells treated in different ways were subjected to in-gel fluorescence detection by bioorthogonal reaction with Cy5 fluorescently labeled substances. The detection results are shown in Figure 2 ( Figure 3 CBB in the figure represents Coomassie brilliant blue staining to show the loading amount control).

[0156] As can be seen from Figure 2 , the labeling efficiency of 200 μM 1,6-Pr2GalNAz or 1,6-Pr2ManNAz is close to or slightly stronger than that of 2 mM unprotected sugar compared with GalNAz or ManNNAz. The labeling efficiency of 1,6-Bu2GalNAz or 1,6-Bu2ManNAz is comparable to that of 1,6-Pr2GalNAz or 1,6-Pr2ManNAz, but the labeling efficiency of 1,6-Ac2GalNAz or 1,6-Ac2ManNAz is much lower than that of 1,6-Pr2GalNAz or 1,6-Pr2ManNAz Figure 2 a and b). For MCF-7 (MCF7-T2A-GFP) cells expressing GFP, GlcNAz and 1,6-biacylated GlcNAz treatment did not have obvious labeling Figure 2 c), by overexpressing the mutant enzyme AGX2F383G which can convert GlcNAz-P- into UDP-GlcNAz, in MCF7-AGX2F383G-T2A-GFP cells, GlcNAz and its three 1,6-biacylated derivatives can produce obvious labeling Figure 2 c). The above data well illustrate that 1,6-biacylated azidosugars can achieve metabolic labeling under conditions of much lower concentration than unprotected azidosugars.

[0157] Example 7: 1,6-Pr2ManNAz, 1,6-Pr2ManNAl and 1,6-Pr2ManNProc for metabolic labeling in living cells.

[0158] Different cells were metabolically labeled with 200 μΜ of 1,6-Pr2ManNAz, 1,6-Pr2ManNAl and 1,6-Pr2ManNProc for 48 hours. After lysis, the Cy5-labeled probe was added to the lysate to react with the glycoproteins with orthogonal groups. After SDS-PAGE separation, the in-gel fluorescence analysis was performed. The results are shown in Figure 3 ( Figure 3 CBB indicates Coomassie blue staining to show the loading control.

[0159] Example 8: 1,6-Pr2GalNAz and 1,6-Pr2ManNAz for in vivo metabolic labeling in mice.

[0160] In the in vivo experiment in mice, B6D2F1 / J mice were injected intraperitoneally with 1,6-Pr2GalNAz or 1,6-Pr2ManNAz (500 mg / kg) every day for 3 or 7 days. The mice were euthanized on the 4th or 8th day, and different organs were homogenized. The azide-modified glycoproteins were click-labeled and subjected to SDS-PAGE separation. The in-gel fluorescence analysis showed that the glycoproteins from the heart, lung and spleen could be well labeled, indicating that 1,6-Pr2GalNAz and 1,6-Pr2ManNAz could be well used for in vivo metabolic labeling Figure 4 ).
