    •  DETAILED DESCRIPTION
  • Herein, a library of BODIPY-based fluorophores was synthesized and characterized to create optimal photoswitchable fluorophores for MSSRM. BODIPY was chosen as the core structure as it is photostable, has high quantum yield, and controllable photoswitching. The BODIPY core was modified through the addition of various aromatic moieties, resulting in a spectrally diverse library. Photoswitching properties were characterized using a novel polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) based film methodology to isolate single molecules. The PVA film methodology enabled photoswitching assessment without the need for protein conjugation, greatly improving screening efficiency of the BODIPY library. Additionally, image buffer conditions were optimized for the BODIPY-based fluorophores through systematic testing of oxygen scavenger systems, redox components, and additives. Through screening the photoswitching properties of BODIPY-based compounds in PVA films with optimized imaging buffer we identified novel fluorophores well suited for SMLM and MSSRM. Such compounds have longer Stokes shifts than commercial fluorophores.

  • More specifically, BODIPY FL was loaded onto CTC-PS resin in the following increments: 500 mg of BODIPY FL in 17.2 ml of DCM was added to 5 g of CTC-PS resin in 14.9 ml of DIEA, protected from light, and placed on the shaker overnight. This was washed 3 times in dichloromethane (DCM), 3 times in dimethylformamide (DMF), 3 times in methanol, 3 additional times in DMF, 3× DCM and dried with ethyl ether, resulting in 90% BODIPY FL retained on the resin.
  • The BODIPY FL loaded CTC-PS resin (100 mg in 3 ml of a 1:1 mixture of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and acetonitrile (ACN)) and 15 equivalents of aldehyde solution (0.45 mmol in 1 ml of a 1:1 mixture of DMSO and ACN) were mixed with 65 equivalents of acetic acid (105 pl, 2 mmol) and 65 equivalents of pyrrolidine (150 μl, 2 mmol) at 85° C. for 15 min. The resin was washed 3 times in DCM and 3 times in DMF—and this cycle (3× in DCM, 3× in DMF) was repeated three times. The resin was then washed 3× in ethyl ether before cleaving the formed BAA compound with 0.5% TFA in DCM. The BAA compounds were purified via HPLC and dried using a Labconco freeze dryer.

  • Scheme 1
  • Synthesis of BAA Library
  • Figure US20170233414A1-20170817-C00104
  • Reagents and Conditions: (a) DCM, DIEA, rt, 20 h; (b) R—CHO (79 aromatic aldehydes shown in the tables herein), DMSO-ACN (1:1), pyrrolidine, acetic acid, 85° C., 15 min; (c) TFA-DCM (0.5:99.5), rt, 2×10 min.
  • Experimentals:
  • Materials. All commercially available starting materials were used without further purification unless otherwise stated. 4,4-Difluoro-5,7-Dimethyl-4-Bora-3a,4a-Diaza-s-Indacene-3-Propionic Acid (BODIPY FL) was obtained from Thermo Fisher Scientific. Aromatic aldehydes were purchased from Thermo Fisher Scientific and Sigma-Aldrich. 2-Chlorotrityl chloride polystyrene (CTC—PS) 100-200 mesh resin was purchased from EMD-Millipore. ACN and water for HPLC and LC/MS were purchased from Thermo Fisher Scientific at LC/MS purity grade.
  • General Instruments. Synthesized sample purification was performed with an Agilent 1260 Infinity HPLC utilizing a C18 column (150mm×21.2 mm). MS (HRMS, ESI) spectra data was collected with an Agilent 6244 TOF LC/MS with diode array detector VL+ and C18 column (4.6 mm×50 mm). Absorbance and fluorescence data were measured on a SpectraMax M5 Microplate reader. NMR spectra, 1H and 13C, were recorded on a Bruker ARK400 spectrometer. BAA microscopy screening in cells for organelle specificity and signal-to-background ratio was completed with an Axio Zeiss Light Microscope and 63× oil immersion objective.
  • General Procedure for the Synthesis of BAA Fluorophore Library BODIPY FL was loaded onto CTC—PS resin in the following increments: 500 mg of BODIPY FL in 17.2 ml of DCM added to 5 g of CTC—PS resin in 14.9 ml of DIEA, protected from light on shaker overnight, washed 3× DCM, 3× DMF, 3× MeOH, 3× DMF, 3× DMC and dried with ethyl ether, resulting in 90% BODIPY FL retained on resin. BODIPY FL loaded CTC—PS resin (100 mg in 3 ml of 1:1 DMOS:ACN) and 15 equiv aldehyde (0.45 mmol in 1 ml 1:1 DMSO:ACN) were mixed with 65 equivalent acetic acid (105 pl, 2 mmol) and 65 equivalent pyrrolidine (150 pl, 2 mmol) at 85° C. for 15 min. The resin was washed 3× (3× DMC, 3× DMF), 3× ethyl ether before cleaving the formed BAA compound with 0.5% TFA in DCM. The BAA compounds were purified via HPLC and dried with Labconco freeze dryer.
  • Characterization of BAA Library. All BAA compounds were characterized by LC/MS for m/z ratio and purity. Marvin Sketch was used for chemical characterization of structures. Molecular orbital calculations were performed using the density functional theory (DFT) at B3LYP/6-31G level. The six BAA compounds selected for CLSM imaging were characterized further by 1H and 13C NMR (See Supporting Information).
  • Fluorescence Properties and Quantum Yield Measurements. Spectroscopic characterizations were performed in anhydrous DMSO in polystyrene 96 well plate. Analysis included the maximum absorbance wavelength, maximum fluorescence emission wavelength, full-width-at half max, and quantum yield. Quantum yields (φfl) were determined by comparing the area under the emission spectrum of the BAA compound to a reference fluorophore solution at three concentrations using equation 1, where Grad represents the gradient from the plots of integrated fluorescence intensity vs absorbance at three concentrations and q is the refractive index of the solvent. Fluorescein in 0.1 M NaOH (φfl=0.91)3 was the reference for samples with a max absorbance up to 510 nm, where an excitation of 470 nm was used with the emission integrated between 490 to 800 nm. Rhodamine B in ethanol (φfl=0.70) was the reference for samples with a max absorbance between 511-595 nm, where an excitation of 525 nm was used with the emission integrated between 545 to 800 nm. Cresyl violet in methanol (φfl=0.54)4 was the reference for samples with a max absorbance above 595 nm, where an excitation of 570 nm was used with the emission integrated between 590 to 800 nm.

  • As will be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art, each embodiment disclosed herein can comprise, consist essentially of or consist of its particular stated element, step, ingredient or component. Thus, the terms “include” or “including” should be interpreted to recite: “comprise, consist of, or consist essentially of.” The transition term “comprise” or “comprises” means includes, but is not limited to, and allows for the inclusion of unspecified elements, steps, ingredients, or components, even in major amounts. The transitional phrase “consisting of” excludes any element, step, ingredient or component not specified. The transition phrase “consisting essentially of” limits the scope of the embodiment to the specified elements, steps, ingredients or components and to those that do not materially affect the embodiment.
  • Unless otherwise indicated, all numbers expressing quantities of ingredients, properties such as molecular weight, reaction conditions, and so forth used in the specification and claims are to be understood as being modified in all instances by the term “about.” Accordingly, unless indicated to the contrary, the numerical parameters set forth in the specification and attached claims are approximations that may vary depending upon the desired properties sought to be obtained by the present invention. At the very least, and not as an attempt to limit the application of the doctrine of equivalents to the scope of the claims, each numerical parameter should at least be construed in light of the number of reported significant digits and by applying ordinary rounding techniques. When further clarity is required, the term “about” has the meaning reasonably ascribed to it by a person skilled in the art when used in conjunction with a stated numerical value or range, i.e. denoting somewhat more or somewhat less than the stated value or range, to within a range of ±10% of the stated value; ±9% of the stated value; ±8% of the stated value; ±7% of the stated value; ±6% of the stated value; ±5% of the stated value; ±4% of the stated value; ±3% of the stated value; ±2% of the stated value; or ±1% of the stated value.
  • Notwithstanding that the numerical ranges and parameters setting forth the broad scope of the invention are approximations, the numerical values set forth in the specific examples are reported as precisely as possible. Any numerical value, however, inherently contains certain errors necessarily resulting from the standard deviation found in their respective testing measurements.
  • The terms “a,” “an,” “the” and similar referents used in the context of describing the invention (especially in the context of the following claims) are to be construed to cover both the singular and the plural, unless otherwise indicated herein or clearly contradicted by context. Recitation of ranges of values herein is merely intended to serve as a shorthand method of referring individually to each separate value falling within the range. Unless otherwise indicated herein, each individual value is incorporated into the specification as if it were individually recited herein. All methods described herein can be performed in any suitable order unless otherwise indicated herein or otherwise clearly contradicted by context. The use of any and all examples, or exemplary language (e.g., “such as”) provided herein is intended merely to better illuminate the invention and does not pose a limitation on the scope of the invention otherwise claimed. No language in the specification should be construed as indicating any non-claimed element essential to the practice of the invention.
  • Groupings of alternative elements or embodiments of the invention disclosed herein are not to be construed as limitations. Each group member may be referred to and claimed individually or in any combination with other members of the group or other elements found herein. It is anticipated that one or more members of a group may be included in, or deleted from, a group for reasons of convenience and/or patentability. When any such inclusion or deletion occurs, the specification is deemed to contain the group as modified thus fulfilling the written description of all Markush groups used in the appended claims.
  • Certain embodiments of this invention are described herein, including the best mode known to the inventors for carrying out the invention. Of course, variations on these described embodiments will become apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art upon reading the foregoing description. The inventor expects skilled artisans to employ such variations as appropriate, and the inventors intend for the invention to be practiced otherwise than specifically described herein. Accordingly, this invention includes all modifications and equivalents of the subject matter recited in the claims appended hereto as permitted by applicable law. Moreover, any combination of the above-described elements in all possible variations thereof is encompassed by the invention unless otherwise indicated herein or otherwise clearly contradicted by context.
  • In closing, it is to be understood that the embodiments of the invention disclosed herein are illustrative of the principles of the present invention. Other modifications that may be employed are within the scope of the invention. Thus, by way of example, but not of limitation, alternative configurations of the present invention may be utilized in accordance with the teachings herein. Accordingly, the present invention is not limited to that precisely as shown and described.
  • The particulars shown herein are by way of example and for purposes of illustrative discussion of the preferred embodiments of the present invention only and are presented in the cause of providing what is believed to be the most useful and readily understood description of the principles and conceptual aspects of various embodiments of the invention. In this regard, no attempt is made to show structural details of the invention in more detail than is necessary for the fundamental understanding of the invention, the description taken with the drawings and/or examples making apparent to those skilled in the art how the several forms of the invention may be embodied in practice.
  • Definitions and explanations used in the present disclosure are meant and intended to be controlling in any future construction unless clearly and unambiguously modified in the following examples or when application of the meaning renders any construction meaningless or essentially meaningless. In cases where the construction of the term would render it meaningless or essentially meaningless, the definition should be taken from Webster's Dictionary, 3rd Edition or a dictionary known to those of ordinary skill in the art, such as the Oxford Dictionary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (Ed. Anthony Smith, Oxford University Press, Oxford, 2004).
