Synthesis and photoreactivity of caged blockers for glutamate transporters
l-TBOA ( l- threo-β-benzyloxyaspartate) is, so far, the most potent non-transportable blocker for glutamate transporters. We synthesized α-CMCM- l-TBOA ( 1a) possessing [7-(carboxymethoxy)coumarin-4-yl]methyl ester as a caging group. α-CMCM- l-TBOA ( 1a) is biologically inactive until UV irradiation...

Zusammenfassung: | l-TBOA (
l-
threo-β-benzyloxyaspartate) is, so far, the most potent non-transportable blocker for glutamate transporters. We synthesized α-CMCM-
l-TBOA (
1a) possessing [7-(carboxymethoxy)coumarin-4-yl]methyl ester as a caging group. α-CMCM-
l-TBOA (
1a) is biologically inactive until UV irradiation and the photolysis of
1a immediately released
l-TBOA to show glutamate uptake inhibition. The photoreactivity of the coumarin-type caging group was superior to that of the
o-nitrobenzyl-type caging group.
The photolysis of α-CMCM-
l-TBOA, a caged blocker for glutamate transporters, immediately released
l-TBOA to show glutamate uptake inhibition. |
