Full textIn our laboratory (in Reims), working on sugars is the base of all researches, whether for biologically interesting molecules synthesis as analogues of KRN 7000 (a glycolipid showing antitumor effects), or for the development of strategies for synthesis (for example the NEO stragegy : stereoselective nucleophilic addition followed by a regioselective intramolecular epoxide opening). My work was about studying the flexibility, and consequently stable and less stable conformations of small molecules : C-furanosides, the aim being the establishment of several rules anticipating the questions concerning the entry and the pose of the structure in an active site. So I have started with a theoretical study in vacuum, then I have considered solvation. The long term goal being the consideration of an active site. During these stdies, I have also realized several works in the field of organic chemistry, going to the establishment of a synthetic pathway to different C-furanosides with an alkyne arm, which could be functionalized by our partner (in Lyon) with a click reaction, for the synthesis of bioactive molecules against diabetes

L'efecte de les modificacions estructurals dels lligands 1,3-difosfit sobre els resultats catalítics a l'alquilació al·lílica catalitzada per Pd de compostos fenil-al·lílics ha sigut també estudiat en aquesta tesis.

Asymmetric catalysis is part of the asymmetric synthesis and makes possible the transformation of a pro-chiral or racemic substrate into a chiral product using catalytic amounts of the compounds which contain the chiral information. The design of new ligands is perhaps the most crucial step to achieve the highest levels of reactivity and selectivity. Carbohydrates are the most prominent members of the "chiral pool".
This thesis focus on the development and application in asymmetric catalysis of new 1,3-diphosphite with carbohydrate backbone.
These ligands were successful applied in the Rh-asymmetric hydroformylation of monosubstituted, disubstituted internal and 1,1´-disubstituted alkenes.
The effect of the structural modification of these 1,3-diphosphite ligands on the catalytic results of the Pd-allylic alkylation of phenyl-allyl compounds was also studied in this thesis.
Finally, the 1,3-diphosphites ligands were applied to stabilize metal nanoparticles. These nanocatalysts were tested in the hydrogenation of pro-chiral o- and m-methylanisole.

A δ-aminolevulinato desidratase (δ-ALA-D) é uma metaloenzima que requer íons zinco para sua atividade catalítica máxima. Devido a sua natureza sulfidrílica, a δ-ALA-D é extremamente sensível à presença de agentes oxidantes, sendo inibida por metais pesados que possuam elevada afinidade por grupamentos sulfidrílicos, como o Cádmio (Cd). O Cd é um metal pesado e um elemento não essencial utilizado industrialmente. É um dos poluentes mais tóxicos distribuídos no meio ambiente, uma vez que atividades antropogênicas fizeram com que sua concentração aumentasse na atmosfera e se tornasse um contaminante de alimentos e água. Uma importante fonte de Cd nos seres humanos é através da inalação da fumaça de cigarro, pois já que possui uma alta biodisponibilidade, é facilmente depositado em vários tecidos, especialmente o trato reprodutivo. Embora este metal possa causar graves danos aos embriões e aos órgãos reprodutivos, os mecanismos precisos referentes à sua toxicidade permanecem incertos. O objetivo deste tabalho foi avaliar o efeito do cádmio e do seleno-furanosídeo sobre a atividade da enzima δ-ALA-D de ovário, in vitro e ex vivo. Observou-se que baixas concentrações de Cd inibiram a atividade da enzima δ-ALA-D em ovário de vaca in vitro, e o valor da IC 50 obtido foi de 19,17 μM. O Seleno- furanosídeo (10, 50, 100, 200, 400 e 1000 μM) não foi capaz de reverter a toxicidade do Cd no tecido ovariano bovino in vitro. Foi demonstrado também o possível mecanismo pelo qual o Cd inibe a atividade da enzima δ-ALA-D, utilizando o ditiotreitol (DTT) e o Cloreto de Zinco (ZnCl 2 ), onde foi demonstrado que o DTT (3mM) protegeu a inibição da atividade da enzima causada pelo Cd, enquanto o ZnCl 2 (100μM) não protegeu o efeito inibitório do metal, sugerindo que a inibição da atividade da enzima estaria relacionado a oxidação dos grupos tiólicos. No estudo ex vivo utilizando camundongos Swiss (fêmeas adultas), a exposição aguda ao Cd (2,5 e 5 mg/kg intraperitoneal) provocou uma inibição significativa da atividade da δ-ALA-D de ovário (cerca de 27% e 34%, respectivamente). A terapia com o seleno- furanosídeo ex vivo (100 μmol/kg) foi capaz de restaurar a atividade enzimática. Assim, foi demonstrado pela primeira vez que a atividade da enzima δ-ALA-D ovariana é inibida pelo Cd tanto in vitro como ex vivo. Além disso, a terapia com o seleno-furanosídeo foi eficaz em restaurar a atividade da enzima inibida pela exposição ao Cd em ovário de camundongas, mas não foi eficaz em reverter o efeito do metal in vitro. Neste estudo, foi encontrado um novo marcador de toxicidade de Cd no tecido ovariano, bem como o efeito benéfico de um novo composto para tratar o efeito do metal após a exposição aguda do Cd.
δ- aminolevulinate dehydratase (δ-ALA-D) is a metalloenzyme that requires zinc ions for maximum catalytic activity. Due to its sulphidrilic nature, δ-ALA-D is very sensitive to the presence of oxidizing agents being inhibited by heavy metals that have a high affinity for sulfhydryl groups such as cadmium (Cd). Cd is a heavy metal and a non-essential element used industrially. It is one of the most toxic pollutants distributed in the environment, since anthropogenic activities have increased its concentration in the atmosphere and become a contaminant of food and water. An important source of Cd in humans is through inhalation of cigarette smoke, because since it has a high bioavailability, is easily deposited in various tissues, especially the reproductive tract. Although this metal can cause serious damage to embryos and reproductive organs, the precise mechanisms relating to its toxicity remain uncertain . The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of cadmium and seleno - furanoside on the activity of the enzyme δ-ALA-D ovary , in vitro and ex vivo. We observed that low concentrations of Cd inhibited cow ovary δ-ALA-D activity in vitro and the IC 50 value obtained was 19.17 μM. The Seleno-furanoside (10, 50, 100, 200, 400 and 1000 μM) did not reverse the Cd toxicity in bovine ovarian tissue in vitro. It was also shown possible mechanism by which Cd inhibits the enzyme activity of δ-ALA-D using dithiothreitol (DTT) and Zinc Chloride (ZnCl 2 ), where it was shown that DTT (3 mM) protected against enzyme activity inhibited by Cd while the ZnCl 2 (100μM) did not protect the inhibitory effect of the metal, suggesting that the inhibition of enzyme activity is related to the oxidation of thiol groups. In the ex vivo sturdy using Swiss (adult females), acute exposure to Cd (2.5 and 5 mg / kg intraperitoneally) caused a significant inhibition of δ-ALA-D ovarian (about 27% and 34% activity, respectively). Therapy with seleno-furanosídeo ex vivo (100 μmol /kg) was able to restore enzyme activity. Thus, it was demonstred for the first time that the activity of δ-ALA-D ovarian enzyme is inhibited by Cd both in vitro and ex vivo. In addition, therapy with seleno-furanoside was effective in restoring the enzyme activity inhibited by Cd exposure in mice ovary but was not effective in reversing the effect of metal in vitro. This study found a new marker of toxicity of Cd in ovarian tissue, as well as the beneficial effect of a new compound for treating metal effect after acute exposure of Cd.

Full textAquesta tesi s'ha centrat en la síntesi de compostos derivats de la D-(+)-xilosa i l'aplicació com a lligands de catalitzadors homogenis quirals en quatre reaccions asimètriques d'interès industrial: hidrogenació, substitució al·lílica, addició 1,4 i hidroformilació. Per assolir aquest objectiu s'ha plantejat la síntesi de dues famílies de compostos: difosfinits i tioèter-fosfinit (figura 1). Els difosfinits es diferencien en la configuració del carboni-3 de l'esquelet furanòsid (els dos esquelets resultants són xilofuranòsid i ribofuranòsid). Els tioèter-fosfinits es diferencien dels anteriors per la introducció d'un grup tioèter al carboni-5 de l'anell furanòsid i contenen tres grups tioèters amb diferents propietats electròniques i estèriques.
Figura 1. Compostos sintetitzats a partir de la D-(+)-xilosa.
Després de la introducció (capítol 1) i els objectius (capítol 2), al capítol 3 es discuteix la síntesi i caracterització de les dues famílies de compostos. També s'estudia la coordinació d'aquests compostos a Rh i Ir, la reactivitat respecte a l'hidrogen i l'aplicació en la hidrogenació d'olefines proquirals.
Per sintetitzar els compostos difosfinit i tioèter-fosfinit s'ha realitzat un ampli estudi explorant i avaluant diferents condicions de reacció. Els compostos difosfinit s'han preparat per reacció del corresponent diol amb clorur de difenilfosfina en presència de piridina i 4-dimetilaminopiridina. Els compostos tioèter-fosfinits s'han obtingut a partir del corresponent tioèter-alcohol per reacció amb clorur de difenilfosfina en presència de piridina i 4-dimetilaminopiridina. Els compostos intermedis diols i tioèter-alcohols s'han sintetitzat prèviament seguint rutes descrites a la bibliografia a partir de la D-(+)-xilosa. Els compostos s'han caracteritzat per espectroscòpia de ressonància magnètica nuclear (RMN) monodimensional de 1H, 13C i 31P i bidimensional de 13C-1H i 31P-1H.
Aquests compostos s'han fet reaccionar amb [M(cod)2]BF4 (M= Rh i Ir, cod= 1,5-ciclooctadiè). Els complexos organometàl·lics resultants [M(cod)(P-P)]BF4 i [M(cod)(P-SR)]BF4 (P-P=difosfinit i P-SR=tioèter-fosfinit) s'han caracteritzat per RMN monodimensional de 1H, 13C i 31P i bidimensional de 1H-1H, 13C-1H i 31P-1H. La caracterització dels complexos M/difosfinit ha mostrat que tots, excepte el complex Ir/difosfinit amb esquelet xilofuranòsid, presenten un únic isòmer. La caracterització dels complexos M/tioèter-fosfinit ha mostrat la presència d'un únic diastereoisòmer en què el substituent del sofre té una disposició pseudoaxial, que és important per obtenir una elevada enantioselectivitat en hidrogenació asimètrica. L'addició d'hidrogen als complexos d'iridi/tioèter-fosfinit ha permès formar les espècies cis-dihidruriridi (III) en les quals el substituent del sofre manté la disposició pseudoaxial.
Els sistemes M/difosfinit i M/tioèter-fosfinit (M= Rh i Ir) s'han provat com a catalitzadors quirals en la reacció d'hidrogenació asimètrica d'olefines proquirals. Els sistemes M/disfosfinit han proporcionat elevades activitats i excessos enantiomèrics de fins al 81%. S'ha observat un important efecte de la configuració del carboni-3 de l'esquelet furanòsid, del metall i del substrat que s'ha d'hidrogenar. Així, les millors enantioselectivitats s'obtenen en la hidrogenació del N-acetoamidoacrilat de metil amb el sistemes Rh/ribofuranòsid i Ir/xilofuranòsid. Els sistemes M/tioèter-fosfinit han proporcionat elevades activitats i millors enantioselectivitats (96%) que els sistemes M/difosfinit. Els resultats mostren que l'excés enantiomèric depèn de les propietats estèriques del substituent del grup tioèter, del metall i del substrat. Les millors enantioselectivitats s'obtenen en la hidrogenació del N-acetoamidoacrilat de metil i del N-acetoamidocinamat de metil amb el sistema de rodi que conté el lligand amb el substituent isopropil en la funció tioèter.
El capítol 4 descriu l'ús dels compostos difosfinit i tioèter-fosfinit com a lligands en reaccions de substitució al·lílica asimètrica (alquilació i aminació) catalitzades per pal·ladi. Concretament s'ha estudiat la reacció d'alquilació al·lílica de dos substrats amb propietats estèriques diferents: el substrat lineal rac-1,3-difenil-3-acetoxi-1-propè i el substrat cíclic rac-3-acetoxiciclohexè. El sistemes Pd-difosfinit han presentat bones activitats però baixa enantioselectivitat (fins al 31%). Els resultats indiquen que la configuració del carboni-3 de l'esquelet furanòsid controla el sentit de l'enantioselectivitat i que l'atac nucleofílic té lloc en posició trans al grup fosfinit unit al carboni-5 de l'esquelet furanòsid. Els sistemes Pd/tioèter-fosfinit han presentat millors activitats i enantioselectivitats més grans (93%) que els sistemes Pd/difosfinit. Els resultats mostren que l'excés enantiomèric depèn de les propietats estèriques del substituent del grup tioèter i del substrat. Així, les millors enantioselectivitats s'han assolit en la substitució al·lílica del substrat lineal amb el sistema de Pd que conté el lligand tioèter-fosfinit amb el grup voluminós isopropil. Els resultats també indiquen que l'atac nucleofílic, a diferència dels sistemes Pd/difosfinit, té lloc en posició trans al carboni al·lílic unit al grup fosfinit (carboni-3). D'altra banda, aquests lligands són més actius en alquilació al·lílica que en aminació al·lílica.
El capítol 5 descriu l'aplicació dels compostos difosfinits i tioèter-fosfinits com a lligands en la reacció d'addició 1,4 de compostos organometàl·lics a la 2-ciclohexenona catalitzada per coure. S'han obtingut bones enantioselectivitats (72%), elevades activitats (TOF > 1225 mols producte x (mol precursor catalític x h)-1) i excel·lents regioselectivitats en el producte d'addició 1,4 (100%)). Els resultats mostren que l'activitat i l'enantioselectivitat depenen del tipus de grup funcional unit al carboni-5 de l'esquelet furanòsid, de les propietats estèriques del substituent tioèter, del precursor de catalitzador i de l'agent alquilant. Les millors enantioselectivitats s'obtenen amb el sistema Cu/tioèter-fosfinit que conté el grup isopropil. No obstant això, l'activitat és millor amb els sistemes Cu/difosfinit. La utilització d'AlEt3 com a agent alquilant condueix a millors activitats però pitjors enantioselectivitats que el ZnEt2.
El capítol 6 exposa l'aplicació dels compostos difosfinits amb esquelet furanòsid com a auxiliars quirals en la reacció d'hidroformilació asimètrica de vinilarens catalitzada per rodi. Aquests sistemes han proporcionat elevades regioselectivitats en l'aldehid ramificat (99%) i moderats excessos enantiomèrics (fins al 63%). La presència de substituents para-metoxi i naftil al substrat té un efecte positiu sobre l'enantioselectivitat. Per primera vegada, s'ha determinat l'estructura de les espècies formades sota condicions d'hidroformilació amb lligands difosfinit mitjançant infraroig i RMN a alta pressió. L'estudi indica la presència d'un únic diastereoisòmer [HRh(P-P)(CO)2] on el lligand difosfinit es coordina en una estructura de bipiràmide trigonal en forma equatorial-equatorial. No obstant això, aquesta forma diastereoisomèrica no permet assolir una enantioselectivitat elevada.
In the last years, the growing demand of enantiomerically pure compounds (pharmacs, agrochemicals, additives...) has captured the interest of asymmetric catalysis. Asymmetric processes catalyzed by chiral transition-metal complexes have found many applications in this field. In this context, the synthesis of new chiral ligands is important to develop good catalytic systems in asymmetric catalysis. Carbohydrates have many advantages: they are readily available, are highly functionalized and have several stereogenic centers. This enables series of chiral ligands to be synthesized in the search for high activities and selectivities for each particular reaction.
This thesis has focused on the synthesis of compounds derived from D-(+)-xylose and their application as ligands of chiral homogeneous catalyst in four asymmetric industrial processes: hydrogenation, allylic substitution, 1,4-addition and hydroformylation. Thus, new diphosphinite and thioeter-phosphinite compounds have developed (figure 1). Diphosphinites have the opposite configuration at C-3 (two backbones are xylofuranoside and ribofuranoside). Thioether-phosphinites have a thiother moiety at C-5 bearing substituents with different steric and electronic properties.
Figura 1. Compounds synthetized from D-(+)-xylose.
After the introduction (chapter 1) and the objectives (chapter 2), chapter 3 contains the synthesis and characterization of the two families of compounds. This chapter also discusses the characterization of their Rh(I) and Ir(I) catalytic precursors and their application in the asymmetric hydrogenation of prochiral olefins.
Diphosphinite and thioether-phosphinite compounds have been synthesized from the corresponding alcohols. The reaction of diols with chlorodiphenylphosphine in the presence of pyridine and 4-(dimethylamino)-pyridine has provided the corresponding phosphinite ligands. The reaction of thioether-alcohols with chlorodiphenylphosphine in the presence of pyridine and 4-(dimethylamino)-pyridine has provided the corresponding thioether-phosphinite ligands. Diol and thioether-alcohol intermediates have been prepared on a large scales from D-(+)-xylose using standard procedures. Diphosphinites and thioether-phosphinites have been characterized by 1H, 13C and 31P and 13C-1H i 31P-1H MNR spectroscopy.
The reaction of these compounds with [M(cod)2]BF4 (M = Rh and Ir, cod = 1,5-ciclooctadiene) has led to [M(cod)(P-P)]BF4 and [M(cod)(P-SR)]BF4 (P-P = diphosphinite and P-SR = thioether-phosphinite) complexes. These complexes have been characterized by 1H, 13C and 31P and 13C-1H i 31P-1H MNR spectroscopy.
The characterization of M/diphosphinite complexes has showed that all, except Ir/diphosphinite complex with xylofuranoside backbone, have only one isomer. The characterization of M/thioether-phosphinite complexes has indicated that only one diastereomer, with pseudoaxial location of the sulfur substituents, is present in solution. Adding hydrogen to the iridium complexes has given cis-dihydridoiridium(III) complexes with pseudoaxial location of the sulfur substituents.
The M/diphosphinite and M/thioether-phosphinite systems have been tested as chiral catalysts in the asymmetric hydrogenation of prochiral olefins. Enantiomeric excesses of up to 81% with moderate to high activities have been obtained with M/diphosphinite systems. Our results have shown that enantioselectivity is dependent on the absolute configuration of the C-3 stereocenter of the carbohydrate bakcbone, on the metal source and on the substrate. Enantiomeric excesses of up to 96% with good activities have been obtained with M/thioether-phosphinite systems. Our results have shown that enantioselectivity depends on the steric properties of the substituent in the thioether moiety, the metal source and the substrate structure.
Chapter 4 reports the use of dihosphinite and thioether-phoshinite compounds as ligands in the palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic substitution reactions (alkylation and amination) of hindered linear and unhindered cyclic substrates. The use of diphosphinite ligands has provided good activity but low enantioselectivity (ee's up to 31%). Our results have indicated that the absolute configuration at carbon C-3 of the carbohydrate backbone controlles the sense of enantioselectivity and that the nucleophilic attack takes place trans to the phosphinite moiety attached to C-5. The Pd/thioether-phosphinite systems have led to best activities and enantioselectivities (ee's up to 93%) than the Pd/diphosphinite systems. Our results have shown that enantiomeric excesses depend on the steric properties of the substituent in the thioether moiety and the structure of substrate. Our results have showed that the nucleophilic attack takes place trans to the phosphinite moiety attached to C-3. Moreover, these ligands are more actives in allylic alkylation than allylic amination.
Chapter 5 contains the application of diphosphinite and thioether-phoshinite compounds as ligands in the asymmetric copper-catalyzed asymmetric 1,4-addition to 2-cyclohexenone. Good enantioselectivities (ee's up to 72%), high activities (TOF > 1225 mol product x (mol catalytic precursor x h)-1) and excellent regioselectivities in 1,4 product (100%) have been obtained. Our results show that activity and selectivity (chemo- and enantioselectivity) depend strongly on the type of functional group at C-5 position of the carbohydrate backbone, the steric properties of the substituent in the thioether moiety, the catalyst precursor and the alkylating agent. The best enantioselectivities have been obtained with Cu/thioether-phosphinite system containing isopropyl substituent. However, activity is better with Cu/diphosphinite systems. The use of AlEt3 as alkylating agent has led to better activities but worse enantioselectivities than the use of ZnEt2.
Chapter 6 discuss the application of diphosphinite compounds as chiral auxiliares in the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydroformylation of vinyl arenes. These catalytic systems have led to high regioselectivities in the branched aldehyde (99%) and moderate enantiomeric excesses (up to 63%). The results have shown a remarkable substrate effect on enantioselectivity. Thus, the presence of para-methoxy and naphthyl substituents in the substrate has a positive effect on enantioselectivities. For the first time, the structure in solution of the species formed under hydroformylation conditions with diphosphinite ligands has been determined. The characterization of these rhodium complexes by NMR techniques and in situ IR spectroscopy have shown that the hydridorhodium dicarbonyl species exist in one diastereosiomeric equatorial-equatorial form. However, this strong coordination preference does not allow high enantioselectivity.

Full textSurface biocontamination from microorganisms leads to serious economic and health issues. Nowadays, biocide compounds are mostly used as prevention. Nonetheless, they are known to be toxic for environment and to participate in the rise of the antibiotic resistance of pathogens. These research works examine a non-biocide and non-toxic approach. It is based on the inhibition of the microbial adhesion with a monofuranoside-functionalized surface. The development of surfaces was started with the glycosidic synthesis of target furanosides from D-Glucose, D-Galactose and D-Mannose. In order to compare the interest of the cyclic form, pyranosidic homologues, known for their anti-adhesive activity, were also achieved. The modified glycosides were then grafted to a prefunctionalized glass surface linked through an O-glycosidic or S-glycosidic via a triazole group. The resulted surfaces were characterized using goniometry and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The adhesion studies with Pseudomonas aeruginosa have shown an anti-bioadhesion activity with furanosidic and glycosidic surfaces. Specific and non-specific interactions were explored through lectin deficient mutant strains and a thermodynamic approach. The anti-bioadhesive activity was concluded to depent more on the carbohydrate physicochemical properties, rather than the biological interactions

Full textThe emergence of Leishmania resistance against various molecules as well as high cost of treatment of leishmaniasis represent a health problem in endemic developing countries. Development of new molecules, effective and at low-cost, is a key challenge in the management of this neglected disease. Furanose pathway is reported in Leishmania parasites, but is completely absent in Human. It was identified as a potential drug target. InLeishmania, this pathway is associated with production of virulence factors, LPG and GIPLs (species-dependant). Octyl-galactofuranose (oct-galf), an analogue of the original substrate, was developed and evaluate in the context of Leishmania donovani infection. In vitro, a dose-independent efficacy against amastigote form was demonstrated in a human macrophages model. Using a murine model, oct-galf showed strong immunomodulatory effects in vivo, while a moderate anti-parasitic effect. In order to better understand theseresults, a new mechanistic approach was considered. Intelectin-1 (also named omentin- 1) relating to a large number of publications, is able to bind furanosidic moieties. Abilities of this lectin to regulate energetic metabolic pathways via AMPK correlate with results we observed in our models and suggest its involvement in the anti-parasitic effects

Full textSpecific targeting of viral and bacterial infections is of major importance for early diagnosis of many diseases. Galactofuranose (Galf) is absent in humans but is found as glycoconjugate moiety in a large number of human pathogens (Aspergillus, Leishmania, Trypanosoma, Mycobacterium) thus offering possibilities to target this carbohydrate in biotechnological applications using enzymes involved it its metabolism (UDP-galactopyranose mutase (UGM), Galactofuranosyl transferase (GalfT), Galactofuranosidase (Galf-ase). Recently, the first Galf-specific enzyme from Streptomyces spp. and gene encoding it has been reported.This thesis work focuses on Galf-ase and consists of three main parts. First part is groundwork characterization of this enzyme including subcloning, overexpression, purification and kinetic characterized (kcat, KM, kcat,/KM). Also, determination of optimum activity (pH and temperature) and storage stability conditions.Second part consists of applying enzyme engineering technology (site-directed mutagenesis) to generate neolectins (carbohydrate-binding proteins) from the wild-type. Several mutant Galf-ase enzymes have been overexpressed, purified and kinetically characterised (kcat, KM, kcat,/KM) on their potential to be used as neolectins and thioglycoligases for furanothioglycoside synthesis.Final, third part focuses on procedures in order to create luminescent nanoparticle scaffold to bear lanthanide complexes and to bind Galf-ase neolectins onto its surface. The resulting luminescent conjugates were tested as probes in near-infrared optical imaging of Galf located on the surface of microorganisms

Full textHexofuranosides are carbohydrates with fivemembered ring which are present in several microorganisms but absent from mammals. This natural occurrence and their presence into glycoconjugates of pathogenic species like Mycobacterium tuberculosis or Leishmania donovani make their biosynthesis a valuable therapeutic target. Thus, a donor of galactofuranose unit, namely UDP-a-D-Galf, is commonly found in these microorganisms. In this context, this manuscript presents the synthesis of structural analogs of this moiety, and their evaluation as antiparasitic agent. First, we proposed a new and straightforward route to precursors of UDP-furanoses, namely peracetylated glycofuranoses. This method consists in successive silylation and acetylation steps. Such a protocol facilitates the formation of corresponding nucleotidesugars. The second part of this work describes a complementary multi-step synthesis in order to obtain more complex derivatives, modified at the C-4 arm of the Galf. Antimycobacterian properties were then studied using two different families of compounds: octyl glycofuranosides and the corresponding thioimidates. Finally, new structure-activity relationships were established. Finally, the remote activation concept was applied to the previously synthesized thioimidates, alternatively used as furanosyl donors to form the targeted UDP-furanoses. In vitro studies on L. Donovani then confirmed that several analogs indeed displayed inhibition effect

Full textNumerous molecules with cyclopropanic or aminocyclopropyl ring have important biological properties. However, only few functionalized sugars can be found in the literature. Our goal was to synthesize polyheterocyclic molecules with an aminocyclopropyl ring from sugars. Two series of compounds were obtained : furanoses with a cyclopropane or aminocyclopropyl ring in position 3 and iminosugars with aminocyclopropyl ring on anomeric position. Their biological properties are actually under study. The two synthetic key steps are the aminocyanation and the cyclopropanation. The first one allowed us to introduce amino-nitriles functions on monosaccharides. The second was achieved under Szymoniak’s conditions

Les enzymes sont de plus en plus souvent utilisées pour la synthèse de glycoconjugués comme une alternative à la synthèse organique. Dans ce travail, nous présentons l'utilisation d’alpha-l-Arabinofuranosidase Araf51 pour la synthèse de glycoconjugés contenant des unités furanosidiques. Cette enzyme s’est révélée très efficace pour catalyser les oligomérisations des dérivés du l-arabinofuranoside et ceux du d-galactofuranoside jusqu'à la formation de pentasaccharides, ainsi que dans la synthèse de furanosides contenant des motifs structuralement modifiés du d-galactofuranose et des disaccharides de type pyrano-furano. Un grand nombre de composés synthétisés présentent des structures d’intérêt biologique que l’on retrouve dans certains agents pathogènes. Les essais biologiques ont montré que ces néofuranosides ont de fortes propriétés immunostimulatrices et peuvent potentiellement constituer un nouveau type d’adjuvants

Full textChemo-enzymatic synthesis as an efficient and environmental friendly strategy to access furanosidic compounds. Alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase from Clostridium thermocellum (Araf51), a thermostable glycosidase, is able to use arabinofuranosyl-donors to catalyse transglycosylation reactions with various aliphatic alcohols to give the corresponding glycoconjugates. Thanks to random mutagenesis method involving the development of an efficient screening, five mutants were obtained. In comparison to the wild type enzyme, they improve the reaction time, the conversion rate and the specificity to the alkyl furanoside formation. Many efforts have focused on the extraction and conversion of renewable biomass as biofuels or biocompounds but have neglected the pentose polymers from hemicellulose which represent 30 % of the total biomass. Hydrolysis of sustainable polymers as arabinan or arabinoxylan by the araf51 was studied. To enhance the hydrolysis rate, mutants were selected by a screening based on the conditions of the transglycosylation reaction performed to produce methyl-alpha-L-arabinofuranoside by the Araf51. We also demonstrate that a cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase, CGTase from Thermoanaerobacterium sp. Was able to recognize and glucosylate alkyl and para-nitrophenyl furanosides using beta-cyclodextrin as substrate with efficiency. The compounds were identified and presented only one interesting regioisomery. These compounds are good targets as amphiphilic molecules, building block or immunostimulating and anti-parasitic drug

Full textHexofuranosides, such as D-Galactofuranoside (D-Galf), are particularly spread in numerous pathogenic microorganisms but unknown in mammals. Thus, such oligosaccharides and their analogues are promising candidates (i) to improve our knowledge about their biological and physico-chemical roles and (ii) to define new antiparasitic treatments. In this context, our aim relies on mutations of enzymes for thiotransglycosylation, as well as chemical synthesis of innovating substrates. These lead to the preparation of α-L-arabinofuranosides, 6-deoxy-Galf analogues, containing S-glycosidic linkage. This study includes (i) the recombinant production of Clostridium thermocellum arabinofuranosidase Araf51, as well as its mutants (thioligases), in BL21 E. Coli expression system, followed by the purification and the activity studies of both enzymes, (ii) chemical preparation of donors and acceptors and (iii) biocatalytic synthesis of thioglycosides including a glycodendrimer

The fact that those glycoconjugates are absent in mammal makes those five-membered ring sugars, valuable targets to design new pharmacophores and/or treatments. Therefore, a better understanding of furanoconjugates 's biosynthetic pathways is a crucial step of this new therapeutic strategy. This report presents a straightforward chemical synthesis of nucleotides-sugars from thioimidoyl furanosides. Then, this work underlines also the biocatalytic behavior of nucleotidylyltransferases in order to synthesize non-natural furanosyl nucleotides. At last, activities of those new compounds were evaluated on the enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of the arabinogalactan of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Full textLeishmaniasis is a neglected tropical disease for which the current therapeutic arsenal is limited. This work aimed at finding new therapeutic drugs by targeting the Leishmania cell wall. Lipophosphoglycan (LPG) is the major glycoconjugate in promastigotes cell wall, consisting of a hexasaccharide core including a galactofuranose motif. Galactofuranose is absent in mammalian membranes, thus could be a therapeutic target. First, this work studied the galactofuranosyl-transferases involved in the metabolism of this furanose, as well as a mutase, also necessary for the metabolism of galactofuranose. Once targets were identified in the two parasitic stages, galactofuranose derivatives were tested for antileishmanial activity on promastigotes and amastigotes forms of Leishmania donovani. A compound showed interesting results and has been studied further, the n-octyl-galactofuranose (Galf). Different techniques have been used to characterize its mode of action on promastigotes and amastigotes: electron paramagnetic resonance, transmission electron microscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance or flow cytometry. Infected macrophages treated with Galf were able to produce oxygen derivatives species, leading us to look at the immunomodulatory capacity of Galf derivatives. Thus, the last part of this work focused on the study of macrophage polarization by galactofuranosides on an in vitro model of human macrophages. We were able to show that Galf stimulates macrophages towards M1 polarization, which could explain the decreased growth of amastigotes inside macrophage cells

Full textCells are heavily decorated by diverse glycoconjugates that are involved in important biological events such ascell-cell communication, growth of healthy or cancerous cells and pathogens infection process. Among these polysaccharidic structures, Galf-containing glycans have been the subject of increasing interest in the last decades. Indeed, the galactofuranose can be found in many pathogenic species, such as Mycobacteriumtuberculosis, Aspergillus and Leishmania, but is absent in mammals. Therefore, these glycoconjugates are considered as interesting targets for therapeutic approaches.Galactofuranosyltransferases (GalfTs) catalyse the transfer of galactofuranose residues into glycoconjugatesstructures. However, GalfTs are poorly described enzymes despite their crucial role in the virulence and the pathogenicity of numerous microorganisms. Up to date, only one mycobacterial GalfT has been fully characterized.In this thesis, four putative GalfTs of Leishmania major, the causing agent of leishmaniosis diseases, were characterized. They were first cloned, overexpressed in E. coli and purified. Then, their respective kineticparameters were determined. In addition, since these GalfT are located in the Golgi apparatus of Leishmania, we assumed that their glycosylation could be an important element for their stability and activity. So, glycosylatedGalfTs were produced using, Leishmania tarentolae, and preliminary results of their enzymatic activity were obtained.Still, leishmanian GalfTs demonstrate promising results for the development of new chemoenzymatic strategies for Galf-containing glycoconjugates synthesis, as well as the design of new drugs against leishmaniasis

Full textThe Phostines represent a new class of glycomimetics, containing a phosphinolactone function instead of the anomeric carbon. Their synthesis was achieved by the reaction of protected furanose with various H-phosphinates, in the presence of a base. These compounds have been found to be very effective in vitro and in vivo against rat and human glioblastoma cells.In this project, our first goal was to obtain the most active phostine with higher diastereoselectivity. Different reactions were tested, changing the base or its counter ion. A very slight improvement was noted with cesium methoxide, favoring the glucose-like derivative.In the context of improving the anticancer activity and to study the biodistribution of the phostines, different chemical modifications were carried out. Dihydroxy-2,3- and 2,6-oxaphosphinanes, thiophostines and phostines of the L series were synthesized. Therefore, variations in alpha position of the phosphorus atom have produced halogenated phostines and two new products: furanosylphosphinic acid and the oxaphosphine-3-ene.The chemical reactivity of the enol ether of this latter has been examined by synthesizing beta-ketophosphinate and beta-enaminophosphinates. Finally, pseudo-disaccharides were synthesized to improve the bioavailability of phostines.The tested phostines have exhibited anticancer properties at nanomolar concentration against different cell lines, showing the ability of this family of compounds to fight some types of cancers

Full textWidening the spectrum of available compounds in the field of Glycosciences is of utmost importance for the entire biology community, because carbohydrates are determinants of a myriad of life-sustaining or threatening processes. The assembly, modification or deconstruction of complex carbohydrate-based structures mainly involves the action of enzymes, among which one can identify Carbohydrate Active enZymes (CAZymes). These enzymes form part of the CAZy database repertoire and include Glycoside Hydrolases (GHs), which are the biggest group of CAZymes, whose main role is to hydrolyze glycosidic linkages. However, some GHs also display the ability to perform synthesis (transglycosylation), an activity that mostly manifests itself as a minor one alongside hydrolysis, but which is the only activity displayed by a rather select group of GHs that are often called transglycosylases. Understanding how transglycosylases have resulted from the process of evolution is both intringuing and crucial, because it holds the key to the creation of tailored glycosynthetic enzymes that will revolutionize the field of glycosciences.In this thesis, an extensive review of relevant scientific literature that treats the different aspects of GH-catalyzed transglycosylation and glycosynthesis is presented, along with experimental results of work that has been performed on a family GH-51 α-L-arabinofuranosidase, a pentose-acting enzyme from Thermobacillus xylanilyticus (TxAbf). The conclusions of the literature are presented in the form of a hypothesis, which describes the molecular basis of the hydrolysis/transglycosylation partition and thus provides a proposal on how to engineer dominant transglycosylation activity in a GH. Afterwards, using a directed evolution approach, including random mutagenesis, semi-rational approaches, in silico predictions and recombination it has been experimentally possible to create the very first ‘non-Leloir’ transarabinofuranosylases. The mechanistic analysis of the resultant TxAbf mutants notably focusing on the hydrolysis/transglycosylation partition reveals that the results obtained are consistent with the initial hypothesis that was formulated on the basis of the literature review.To demonstrate the applicative value of the experimental work performed in this study, the TxAbf mutants were used to develop a chemo-enzymatic methodology that has procured a panel of well-defined furanosylated compounds. Enzyme-catalyzed transfer of arabinofuranosyl moities can be used to generate arabinoxylo-oligosaccharides (AXOS), but the design of non-natural oligosaccharides, such as galactofuranoxylo-oligosaccharides or arabinofuranogluco-oligosaccharides is also possible. Overall, the work presented constitutes the first steps towards the development of more sophiscated methodologies that will procure the means to synthesize artificial arabinoxylans, with a first proof of concept being presented at the very end of this manuscript.In the present context of the bioeconomy transition, which relies on technologies such as biorefining and green chemistry, it is expected that the glycosynthetic tools that have been developed in this work will be useful for the conversion of pentose sugars obtained from biomass. The synthesis of tailor-made arabinoxylo-oligo- and polysaccharides may lead to a variety of potential applications including the production of prebiotics, surfactants or bio-inspired materials and, more fundamentally, the synthesis of artificial models of plant cell wall

Full textIn this investigation, a variety of techniques to study the Thermobacillus xylanilyticus alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase (TxAbf) have been employed, especially with regard to structure-functions relations and the enzyme’s ability to catalyze transglycosylation reactions. The aim of our work was to better understand the dynamic role of the bêta2alpha2 loop and to explore the substrate specificity of the subsite [+1], an important active site element with respect to transglycosylation. Finally, this work has focused on the creation of new transarabinofuranosylases using random engineering and screening approaches.Our results confirm the important role of the bêta2alpha2 loop and suggest that its movement during catalysis relocalizes residues His98 and Trp99 and thus permits the formation of a catalytically-viable active site configuration. Trp99 is relocalized from a solvent exposed position into a buried position and forms a critical element of subsite [-1], whereas His98, a residue that is not conserved in all GH51 members, appears to form a part of subsite [+2’]. Regarding subsite [+1], our results confirm its wide specificity and indicate that steric bulkiness at the C-5 position of glycoside acceptors leads to reduced transglycosylation. In this work, we have also demonstrated for the first time the synthesis by TxAbf of trisaccharides, using benzyl alpha-D-xylobioside as the acceptor and para-nitrophenyl β-D-galactofuranoside as the donor. Finally, random mutagenesis and screening has led to the identification of two mutations Phe26Leu and Trp178Arg, which are located in sub-sites [-1] and [+1] respectively, that appear to reduce the water-mediated deglycosylation of the glycosyl-enzyme intermediate. Consequently, the corresponding mutants reduce secondary hydrolysis and favourably affect the operational stability of synthetic products. Using a second more sophisticated screening method that involves the use of xylo-oligosaccharide acceptors, it has been possible to isolate mutant enzymes that (i) catalyze transglycosylation reactions in the presence of xylobioside (a reaction that is poorly catalyzed by wild type TxAbf), (ii) show almost no secondary hydrolysis, (iii) display point mutations at several key locations (e.g. in sub-sites [-1], [+1] and [+2’]) that seem to modulate the Transglycosylation/Hydrolysis ratio in favour of synthesis

We design and synthesize a series of amphiphiles I-V with lyotropic liquid crystalline (at high concentration) and gel (at low concentration) properties. Amide group and pyridine included in the structures give the amphiphiles sensing appications and increase hydrophilic properties as well. We use CD spectra to confirm the chirality of ligands and identify their excellent selectivity to Cu2+ ion. Compound III not only shows significant change in CD spectra and absorbance spectra upon titration of Cu2+ ion, the color also change from colorless to green color observed with naked eye. The gel formed from compound III will aggregate and collapse after adding Cu2+ ion, showing the significant morphology change. And the temperature range of lyotropic liquid crystal phase was stabled to room temperature upon adding Cu2+ ion due to the curvature change of the structure.

Many natural products with biological activities, including antitumor, antibiotic and antifungal activities, contain sugar moieties. These sugar moieties often play important roles in activity of their parent compounds. The modification or removal of the sugar moieties often changes the reported activities. In this study, we choose a novel gene similar to furanose biosynthetic gene as a research target, which has been speculated to participate in the biosynthetic pathway of furanose or related glycosides. By heterologous expression in Escherichia coli, the expression condition of the protein encoded by the gene was optimized. Then, this enzyme was purified by affinity column and analyzed with SDS-PAGE. In order to characterize the enzymatic function, a spectophotometric method was used to detect enzyme activity. In this study, this enzyme was analyzed with possible cofactors, NADPH and NADH. The results thus provide information about this novel enzyme possibly participating in biosynthetic pathways of furanose or related glycosides.
