| Abstract | Chemical labeling methods that convert a specific endogenous protein into a semisynthetic biosensor offer numerous new opportunities for biological research and drug discovery. We recently developed a novel protein labeling scheme, termed ligand-directed tosyl (LDT) chemistry, which can site-specifically introduce a synthetic probe to a protein with the concomitant release of the affinity ligand. In previous work, we demonstrated that LDT reagent 1 can be used to modify carbonic anhydrase I (CAI) with a 19F probe, converting it into a 19F NMR-based biosensor for CAI inhibitors either in vitro or in red blood cells (RBCs). We herein report the chemical properties of 1, and the mechanisms controlling biosensor construction. It was revealed that the LDT reagent forms self-assembled aggregates in the absence of the target protein. In the aggregated state, nonproductive hydrolysis of the reagent was significantly suppressed, which suggests the potential utility of self-assembly in the design of labeling reagents that have increased stability. In the presence of the target protein, the aggregates were disrupted to form a noncovalent protein–reagent complex, and protein 19F-labeling proceeded to generate 19F-labeled CAI. The ligand-binding pocket of the labeled CAI retained the cleaved ligand fragment in vitro, whereas the pocket was vacant in RBC. Further biochemical studies suggested that an anion transporter might play a role in eliminating the cleaved ligand from the interior to the exterior of the cells. The findings provide a fundamental basis for the rational design of reagents applicable to selective protein labeling and biosensor construction in biological contexts. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
