共价有机骨架功能材料及其在糖肽选择性富集中的应用
摘要
<p id=C2>Protein glycosylation is among the most important post-translational modifications in living organisms and the research in the field of protein glycosylation continues to garner attention. Currently, the efficient separation and enrichment of glycoproteins and glycopeptides is the primary challenge of glycoproteomics research. The number of glycoproteins is small in complex biological samples. Moreover, the presence of highly-abundant, non-glycosylated, and modified peptides makes the detection of low-abundance glycopeptides more difficult. Therefore, efficient glycopeptide enrichment methods are required to improve the detection of these compounds. The development of highly selective glycopeptide enrichment tools is important to efficiently capture glycoproteins or glycopeptides at the molecular level. Compared with traditional glycopeptide-enriched materials, covalent organic framework materials have the advantages of large specific surface area and rich modification sites, thereby exhibiting great application potential in the field of glycopeptide enrichment. In this study, a novel covalent organic framework material (O-T-D-COFs) was prepared and applied for selective glycopeptide enrichment. We applied the solvothermal method, using 2,5-dimethoxy benzene-1,4-2 formaldehyde and 1,3,5-Tris(4-aminophenyl) benzene, to synthesize imino-based COFs. The Schiff base generated via copolymerization condensation reaction constitutes the framework of the material. Next, the synthesized intermediate material was oxidized to improve the enrichment performance of the material. The functional, specific glycopeptide-binding groups were modified on the COF channels and the structure of the material was characterized using scanning and transmission electron microscope, as well as infrared spectrum and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance. The enrichment conditions comprised the loading and elution steps, including the optimization of the elution conditions. We could obs
