Synthesis of cyclic adenosine 5'-diphosphate ribose analogues: a C2'endo/syn "southern" ribose conformation underlies activity at the sea urchin cADPR receptor.

Novel 8-substituted base and sugar-modified analogues of the Ca(2+) mobilizing second messenger cyclic adenosine 5'-diphosphate ribose (cADPR) were synthesized using a chemoenzymatic approach and evaluated for activity in sea urchin egg homogenate (SUH) and in Jurkat T-lymphocytes; conformation...

Description
Summary:Novel 8-substituted base and sugar-modified analogues of the Ca(2+) mobilizing second messenger cyclic adenosine 5'-diphosphate ribose (cADPR) were synthesized using a chemoenzymatic approach and evaluated for activity in sea urchin egg homogenate (SUH) and in Jurkat T-lymphocytes; conformational analysis investigated by (1)H NMR spectroscopy revealed that a C2'endo/syn conformation of the "southern" ribose is crucial for agonist or antagonist activity at the SUH-, but not at the T cell-cADPR receptor.
