Ov. Bogomolov et al., SYNTHESIS OF LIPOPHILIC AND FLUORESCENT DERIVATIVES OF N-ACETYLMURAMYL-L-ALANYL-D-ISOGLUTAMINE, Bioorganiceskaa himia, 19(2), 1993, pp. 190-196
Synthesis of lipophilic derivatives of N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isog
lutamine (MDP) by condensation of the C-terminal amino acid moiety in
MDP molecule with phosphatidylethanolamine was carried out. Fluorescen
t lipophilic derivatives of MDP were synthesized by condensation of MD
P with phosphatidylethanolamines labelled in the hydrophobic moiety, e
. g. pyrenyl)stearoyl]-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine and pyrenylpho
sphatidylethanolamine.
