2V-ĢerĢ-butyloxycarbonyl (f-Boc) protected 6-aminocaproic (Cap) anhydride was reacted with unprotected hexaacyl-4'-0-monophosphoryl lipid A (MLA) obtained from the lipopolysaccharide of Escherichia coli J5 toyield f-Boc-Cap-MLA. After a column purification step, the f-Boc group was removed by incubating the sample at low temperaturein the presence of acid toyield Cap-MLA. This product was analyzed by californium plasma desorption mass spectrometry (PDMS). Purified f-Boc-Cap-MLA was further fractionatedby reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography as its methyl ester and characterized by laser desorption mass spectrometry, PDMS, and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. These analyses revealed that the Cap group was selectively introduced into the 6'-position of MLA. To demonstrate that Cap-MLA can be conjugated to other compounds, it was reacted with biotin-Cap iV-hydroxysuccinimide ester to yield biotin-(Cap) 2-MLA. Analysis of this product by PDMS confirmed its expected molecular weight of 2171 and showed the presence of fragments containing the biotin and Cap groups. Monoclonal antibodies and streptavidin were used to show the presence of both lipid A and biotin in this conjugated product. These two novel lipid A derivatives were then tested for their bioactivities. Although both Cap-MLA and biotin-(Cap) 2-MLA showed mitogenic activity using murine splenocytes, they were about 4-8 times less active than MLA at 20 ĩg/mL or less and only one-half as active at 100 ĩg/mL. In the induction of tumor necrosis factor release by RAW 264.7 murine macrophage cell line, the biotin-(Cap) 2-MLA showed 7-9-fold lower activity than MLA at the concentration range of 0.1-1.0 ĩg/mL. These results showed that Cap-MLA is a biologically active lipid A derivative that can be conjugated to other compounds through its free amino group to form new and active derivatives. It should thus be a useful reagent to study the biological properties of lipid A.
