To synthesize these compounds as below and Figs. 27A-27D.
Synthesis of DBF
Bromine solution: Sodium hydroxide (2.8 g, 70 mmol) was added to 30 ml of water and cooled at 0℃. Then, bromine (1.4 ml) was added slowly to this solution.
Fluorescein solution: 5 (6) -carboxyfluorescein (3.6 g, 9.6 mmol) was dissolved in alcohol (5 mL) and cooled at 0℃. The mixture was added to 100 mL of water and 2 mL of a 50 wt%aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide.
Bromine solution was added slowly to fluorescein solution with stirring over 30 min. The reaction was quenched with phosphoric acid (5.4 mL, 85%aqueous) . The crude products were precipitated and collected by filtration. The orange–red solid was dried and used without further purification.
Synthesis of Ac

When the reaction was completed, the solvent was removed on a rotary evaporator, and the crude residue was redissolved in ethyl acetate (50 mL) , washed with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride (2 × 50 mL) , dried over anhydrous Na
2SO
4 and concentrated in vacuo. The pale-yellow solid was used without further purification.
Synthesis of Ac

Ac
2-DBF (ca. 3.8 g) was dissolved in 33 mL of dry dichloromethane and cooled at 0℃. The N-hydroxysuccinimide (1.2 eq. ) and N, N'-Diisopropylcarbodiimide (1.5 eq. ) were added to the mixture, and the reaction was allowed to reach room temperature for 24 h. When the reaction was completed, the solvent was vaporized under reduced pressure, and the resulting mixture was purified by column chromatography and eluted with toluene and EtOAc (5: 1) to give the product as a white solid (751 mg, 11%yield over three steps) .
Synthesis of DBF-LPETGG
(GGGGS)
2-LPETGG peptide (120 mg, 0.1 mmol) and DIPEA (26 μl, 0.15 mmol) were dissolved in DMSO/H
2O (1: 1, 5 mL) and cooled at 0℃. Then, the Ac
2-DBF-NHS (21 mg, 0.03 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6 h. When the reaction was completed, the resulting mixture was subjected to RP-HPLC using a linear AB gradient (0.5%CH
3CN/min) at a flow rate of 0.25 mL/min, where eluent A was 0.05%aqueous TFA and eluent B was 0.05%TFA in CH
3CN. The solvent was rotary vaporized to give DBF-LPETGG as a red solid (27.2 mg, 56%) . purity: >95%. The purity level of product was determined by the reversed-phase HPLC, which was performed on an ACQUITY UPLC I-Class SQD 2 (Waters) system with a BEH C18 Acquity column (1.7 mm, 2.1×100 mm) . The mobile phase was acetonitrile and water. Samples were eluted with a 6 min linear gradient (5%-95%acetonitrile, 0.3 mL/min) directed to the mass detector. Molecular mass of DBF-LPETGG was detected as 1716.22 Da.
The mechanism of DBF-LPETGG-mediated Proximity Labeling is shown in Fig 4A-4C. The R group of an amino acid and/or a saccharide on the cell surface could be bound with NH
2 in the presence of a detectable label, like DBF.
For example, the sensitizing molecule could be:
Example 3
The present application uses an mgSrtA-mediated cell surface ligation method to display DBF-LPETGG on DC. After optimization of DBF-LPETGG concentration, it can be successfully displayed, and the background Adhesion is relatively low. As shown in Fig 5A-5D.
The present application uses DBF-LPETGG self-labeling assay to optimize the labeling condition. After displaying DBF-LPETGG on cell surface, the substrate biotin-NH
2 is added in the culture medium and irradiated 10 minutes with different wavelength light.
Firstly, the Reaction conditions of DBF-LPETGG is optimized.
As shown in Fig 6A-6B. Next, to test labeling ability of various nucleophilic biotin after photooxidation, six biotin-conjugated substrates were chosen, which included from primary aliphatic amine, alcohol, mercaptan to aromatic phenol, aniline, and naphthylamine. Different biotin probes were added into cell culture followed by 10 minutes 520 nm irradiation, biotin signal was detected on cell surface. During test, biotin-alcohol (BAl) showed little labeling signal on BMDC cell surface, while a higher labeling background was observed when biotinylated by biotin-mercaptan (BMe) , biotin-aniline (BAn) and biotin-naphthylamine (BNap) , which hindered the following application. Labeling efficiency of biotin-phenol (BP) was relatively lower than biotin-amine (BAm) . To the end, Biotin-NH
2 (BAm) was chosen as the best probe for biotin-tagging on cell surface. As shown in Fig 7A-7B.
Biotin probe screening
For biotin probe screening, six altered nucleophilic biotin probes (100 μM) were added to 96-well plates containing DBF-functionalized iDCs or unmodified iDCs respectively, and no probes were added to the blank group. iDCs were irradiated under 450 nm (12.57 mW/cm
2) , 480 nm (17.17 mW/cm
2) and 520 nm light LEDs or under dark conditions for 10 min followed by direct supernatant removal after 450 × g centrifugation for 3 min. Then, the cells were treated and analyzed according to the general present application-induced cell surface biotinylation protocol.
When using DBF-modified BMDC as the model cell, biotin-alcohol (BAl) showed no labeling signal under all three wavelengths, while there existed higher background in the groups of biotin-mercaptan (BMe) , biotin-phenol (BP) , biotin-aniline (BAn) and biotin-naphthylamine (BNap) without photocatalyst, which hindered the further applications. By contrast, biotin-NH
2 (BAm) showed a significant labeling under 480 nm and 520 nm irradiation, with a lower labeling background at 520 nm. Although BP also induced a low background under 520 nm irradiation, the labeling efficiency is not as high as BAm. Noteworthy, this application performed a parallel screening test on probes and light wavelengths on bovine serum albumin (BSA) protein, which showed different results, suggesting that cell surface-labeling conditions should be screened in situ rather than on proteins due to the complexed environment on cell surface. As shown in Figs 28-29. Taken together, the biotin-NH
2 (BAm) probe and 520 nm wavelength were chosen as our optimal condition for proximity labeling on cell surface.
Then the concentration of substrate and reaction duration is optimized. Data showed that the best labeling condition is 100-200 Micromolar and 5-10 min. Moreover, concentration titration of Biotin-NH2 and irradiation duration test further concluded that 100 μM biotin-NH
2 and 5-10 minutes irradiation exhibited the best labeling condition. As shown in Fig 8A-8D.
Example 4
Cell Viability After DBF-LPETGG Displaying and Labeling
After DBF-LPETGG displaying and biotin labeling, the percentage of living cells was calculated by Zombie Aqua
TM Fixable Viability Kit (biolegend) . DBF-LPETGG displaying and biotin labeling did not impact cell activity. Labeled Bio+/-OT-I T cells were sorting and culture in the present of 500 IU/mL IL-2, cell number was calculated by flow cytometry. DBF-LPETGG-induced intercellular labeling did not impact cell activity. As shown in Fig 9A-9C.
Example 5
Next, label CCI is performed in model system. In the iDC-ova-OT-I model system, there are three parts. CD45.1 DC is differentiated for mouse BM in the presence of GM-CSF, and the OT-I T cell is from spleen of CD45.2 Transgenic mice. OT-I T cell contain OT-I TCR on the CD8+ T cells that can specially recognize ova SIINFEKL peptide. so, the present application present SIINFEKL peptide on the DC, and during coculture OT-I T cell can specifically interact with iDC-ova through a pMHC-TCR-dependent interaction. After displaying DBF-LPETGG on the DC, iDC-ova is cocultured with OT-I T cells for 2h, and label Biotin during the stable interaction time point, then use flow cytometric analysis to analyze the result. To use CD3 for T cells and CD45.1 for DC to distinguish different cells types, and analysis the Biotin signal on each of them. As shown in Fig 10A-10B.
The GP33 is a non-specific peptide and the unprimed group is the negative control. From the labeling results, it can be seen that the method can specifically label OT-I T cells, the labeling efficiency can reach to 43%, and other labeling background is much lower. As shown in Fig 11A-11B.
After interacting, T cell will be activated, CD69 is a T cell activation marker, and can be the cell-cell interaction marker in this model. This application increased the ratio of DC to T cells, and it can be seen that during the ratio increasing, more CD69+ T cell can be labeled. It shows that DBF-LPETGG-based cell capture is CCI-dependent. As shown in Fig 12.
Next, the SIINFEKL peptide is changed to mimic different Strength of CCI. To choose some SIINFEKL variants, they can mediate iDC-ova-OT-I in different EC50. To choose three concentrations to test the correlation between labeling efficiency and CCI Strength. From the data it can be seen that the change tendency of labeling efficiency is the same as that of CD69 in both of the three concentrations. So that labeling efficiency can reflect the Strength of CCI. As shown in Fig 13A-13D.
Pulse-chase assay
The pulse-chase assay has been frequently used to characterize the temporal control of photocatalytic system. This application characterized this ability of the present application on cell surface and demonstrated that singlet oxygen-induced cell labeling could be rapidly switched on/off via photo irradiation (Fig. 30) . Pulse-chase assay of antigen-specific OT-Ⅰ T cells capture. Light irradiation was paused at the second and fifth minutes followed by regained at the third and sixth minutes. Labeling cannot continue after light source removement, while can restarted when green-light irradiation again.
spatial-controlled intercellular labeling in interacting synapses
To examine the labeling region on interacting cells, this application performed confocal imaging experiment on ex vivo DC-T cell clusters after the present application and found that the biotin signals were more likely to occur in the interaction synapse (Figs. 31-32) .
Example 6
After demonstrated that the method can specifically labeling CCI, the tool is used to capture TSA-specific T cells in mouse system. DC is an Antigen presenting cell that can phagocytose and present antigen by themselves. So, after putting tumor to single cell suspension and isolating tumor cells and TILs. The tumor cells are made into tumor lysates which naturally contain Neoantigen. Add tumor lysates to DC, DC can present neoantigen epitope on the MHC, so primed DC can be acted as a Living Tetramer to capture T cell that can recognize Neoantigen epitopes. As shown in Fig 14.
First, the capture is done in one of mouse tumor model B16-ova. After select the CD8+ T cells in B16-ova TILs, it can be seen that the CD8+ TSA-specific T cell can be capture by our method. and the capture efficiency is up to 37.5%. TIL represents Tumor infiltrating lymphocyte. As shown in Fig 15A-15B.
After successfully capture CD8+ TILs, it is tried to expand the source of TSA-specific T cells. It is tried to capture in draining LN, and not only for CD8+ T cells, but for CD4+ T cells. Again, the method can simultaneously capture CD8+ and CD4+ T cells in TILs and dLN, which expanded the source of TSA-specific T cells. As shown in Fig 16.
And all the labeled cells were PD-1+ and CD39+, Further demonstrated that labeled cells were TSA-specific. PD-1 and CD39 were reported as markers of TSA-specific T cells. As shown in Fig 17A-17B.
Then, the same capture is done in E0771, one of the mouse triple negative breast cancer cell lines. Again, the same results are got. TSA-specific CD8
+ and CD4
+ T cells were simultaneously captured in E0771 TILs and dLN. As shown in Fig 18A-18B.
