Synthesis and Evaluation of a Selective Fluorogenic Pup Derived Assay Reagent for Dop, a Potential Drug Target in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

A litter of pups: The synthesis and in vitro evaluation of new Pup‐based fluorogenic substrates for Dop, the mycobacterial depupylase, are described. A full‐length Pup–amidomethylcoumarin conjugate as well as an amino‐terminus‐truncated analogue exhibited high sensitivity and specificity towards hyd...

Zusammenfassung:A litter of pups: The synthesis and in vitro evaluation of new Pup‐based fluorogenic substrates for Dop, the mycobacterial depupylase, are described. A full‐length Pup–amidomethylcoumarin conjugate as well as an amino‐terminus‐truncated analogue exhibited high sensitivity and specificity towards hydrolysis by Dop. The substrates developed here might find application as high‐throughput screening assay reagents for the identification of Dop inhibitors.
