GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol is an important glycoprotein synthesis intermediate that exists in cells. It is a reaction catalyzed by glutathione transferase between glucosamine (GlcNAc) and acetyl-coenzyme A (Acetyl-CoA) to form N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc). UDP-GlcNAc undergoes a glycosyl transfer reaction with the substrate docosahexaenol (dolichol), which is catalyzed by glycosyltransferase and forms GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol based on phosphorylation. The synthesis process takes place in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol is then gradually added to the protein with sugar chains by glycosyltransferase, forming an N-type sugar chain-modified glycoprotein. CD BioGlyco provides professional GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol inhibitor development services.
CD BioGlyco designs and screens compounds with potential inhibitory activity against GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol synthase or related glycosyltransferases, including structural design, computer virtual screening, high-throughput screening, and other methods.
Based on the strategy of inhibitor design, CD BioGlyco provides a synthesis of candidate GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol inhibitors and improves the activity, selectivity, and pharmacokinetic properties of candidate compounds through chemical modification and structural optimization.
Based on the physical and chemical properties and characteristics of the GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol inhibitor, CD BioGlyco selects an appropriate purification method (such as column chromatography, liquid chromatography, and gel filtration) to purify the synthesized inhibitor. The purified GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol inhibitor is then analyzed and evaluated using mature analytical techniques (such as mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance, etc.) to detect its purity and structural characteristics.
CD BioGlyco tests and evaluates the inhibitory effect of synthesized inhibitors on the activity of target enzymes. We use cells, animal models, or in vitro experimental systems to evaluate the impact of GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol inhibitors on biological processes and disease models, which help determine the efficacy of GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol inhibitors and select potential application areas.
