Description

Mitochondrion targeting membrane-penetrating cyclopeptide and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to chemical synthesis of a mitochondrion-targeted transmembrane cyclopeptide and application of the mitochondrion-targeted transmembrane cyclopeptide in the aspect of active substance delivery.
Background
The main function of mitochondria is to efficiently convert the energy stored in organic matter into direct energy for cell life activities, which is needed for cell life activities. Mitochondria have been reputed as a "power plant" as the primary site of animal cell respiration. Mitochondria play a crucial role in maintaining normal cellular activities. Mitochondria are involved in many links of the cell's life process, including cell physiology, reactive oxygen species production, calcium homeostasis, and apoptosis. Mitochondrial dysfunction is closely associated with the development of various diseases, such as: brain necrosis, cardiomyopathy, tumor, infertility, Parkinson's syndrome, etc. The permselectivity of cell membranes and the high negative membrane potential of the mitochondrial bilayer membrane act as a large barrier for macromolecular bioactive substances to enter mitochondria. The inability of targeted delivery of bioactive substances to mitochondria makes the treatment of mitochondrial-related diseases difficult to combat. With the development of molecular tools targeting mitochondria, selective bioimaging of mitochondria is achieved. Makes it possible to functionally intervene and treat mitochondrial-related diseases.
Over the past few decades, there has been a constant search for the targeted delivery of various bioactive substances to mitochondria to achieve the regulation and treatment of diseases associated with mitochondria. Through the step-by-step effort of people. Currently, the most common method of targeted drug delivery to mitochondria is to covalently attach a lipophilic cation (such as alkyltriphenylphosphino) to the drug group of interest. Nanoparticles, as well as natural and synthetic mitochondrial targeting peptide carriers, have also been used for the delivery of mitochondrial small molecules. Different kinds of active biomolecules require different kinds and structures of carriers to achieve the purpose of targeted delivery. The development of the mitochondrion targeting technology opens a new window for researching the mitochondrion physiology and dysfunction and the mutual connection between the mitochondrion and other subcellular organelles, and provides a new idea for treating various mitochondrion related diseases. It is worth noting that the mitochondrial targeting peptide as a delivery scaffold has unique advantages, such as easy synthesis, tunability, biocompatibility and high uptake in cells and in vivo. The simple solid-phase synthesis method can realize the synthesis of different sequences, and various side chain groups can meet the modification of different types of substances. Due to its simple and modular synthesis and multiple structural sites available for modification, these peptides are well suited for the delivery of different types of cargo.
Cationic peptides consisting of the unnatural amino acids cyclohexylalanine and D-arginine, developed by Kelley and his colleagues, showed better mitochondrial targeting ability. Bioactive molecules such as antitumor drugs (Dox), siRNA, plasmid DNA and the like are successfully transported to mitochondria by applying the structure, and the specificity of the bioactive molecules can be improved by modifying a peptide sequence or introducing an artificially synthesized amino acid side chain. However, even minimal sequence changes can have a dramatic effect on the membrane-penetrating transport activity of the peptide. Therefore, optimizing and providing diverse mitochondrial targeting peptides is of great importance for the delivery of bioactive molecules and the treatment of mitochondrial diseases.
Disclosure of Invention

The invention optimizes the reported mitochondrion membrane penetrating peptide to form a mitochondrion targeting peptide with more stable structure and high modifiability. In addition, the invention also carries out cell imaging experiment on the screened mitochondrial penetrating peptide. The effect of the mitochondria on penetrating the cell membrane of the peptide was evaluated in comparison with commercial mitochondrial dyes.
The mitochondrion targeting transmembrane cyclopeptide is abbreviated as CMPP-1, and the general structural formula of the mitochondrion targeting transmembrane cyclopeptide is shown as the following formula I:
the preparation method of the mitochondrion targeting transmembrane cyclopeptide comprises the following steps:
step 1: synthesis of hydrazide resins
Adding 200mg of 2-Cl-Trt-Cl resin into 2mL of DMF for swelling, dropwise adding a mixed solution of 266uL DIEA (N, N-diisopropylethylamine), 80uL hydrazine hydrate and 800uL DMF under the conditions of ice bath and stirring, stirring for 20min under ice bath, transferring the system to room temperature, stirring for reacting for 70min, and adding 40uL methanol to finish the reaction; transfer the resulting hydrazide-Trt (2-Cl) resin to a sand core funnel, wash thoroughly with DMF, MeOH, ether sequentially for 3-5 times, and dry under vacuum for 1 h.
Step 2: synthesis method of CMPP-1
Using Fmoc solid phase synthesis method to synthesize hydrazide-Trt (2-Cl) resin obtained in the step 1, wherein the sequence of the hydrazide-Trt (2-Cl) resin is Boc-C (Trt) -K (alloc) -r (Pbf) -Cha-r (Pbf) hydrazide polypeptide; then removing protective group of Alloc side chain on lysine (K), condensing naked amino group on lysine side chain with 5(6) carboxyfluorescein to obtain sequence Boc-C (Trt) -K (FAM) -r (Pbf) -Cha-r (Pbf), then cracking polypeptide sequence from resin, purifying to obtain pure H-C-K (FAM) -r-Cha-r-NH2And finally, performing head-to-tail cyclization on the obtained polypeptide by adopting a natural connection method to obtain a CMPP-1 product.
According to the mitochondrion targeted membrane-penetrating cyclopeptide, the head and the tail of a polypeptide sequence are cyclized by a natural connection method, and a fluorophore is connected to a lysine side chain amino group of the cyclopeptide, so that cell fluorescence visualization is realized.
The mitochondrion targeting transmembrane cyclopeptide is used as a mitochondrion targeting peptide carrier to deliver different kinds of bioactive substances to the mitochondrion in a targeted manner. The bioactive substances include anticancer drugs, inhibitors, negatively charged dyes, etc. The anticancer drugs include adriamycin, chlorambucil, cisplatin, etc. The inhibitor comprises methotrexate, clavulanic acid, sulbactam, etc. Negatively charged dyes include bromocresol green, and dyes containing a-COOH group.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
the mitochondrion targeting membrane-penetrating cyclopeptide provided by the invention can specifically target cell mitochondrion, and confocal inverted fluorescence microscopy imaging experiments show that the structure has good membrane-penetrating property on Hela cells, and the co-localization coefficient Pr of the structure and commercial mitochondrion dye is 0.74, so that the structure can efficiently target and localize to the mitochondrion. Since the ability of a polypeptide to penetrate cell membranes is susceptible to structural changes, and with minor structural changes, its ability to penetrate cell membranes can vary greatly. Compared with the published H-Cha-r-NH 2 linear mitochondrion targeting peptide, the mitochondrion targeting membrane penetrating peptide provided by the invention can stably position mitochondrion, provides a structural site which is easy to modify, modifies amino acids with different structures on the mitochondrion targeting membrane penetrating peptide, and still has better membrane penetrating capability. Provides a delivery tool with potential for targeted delivery of active substances with different structures, such as small molecules, polypeptides and proteins.
