  • NMR and IR Characterization of the Au Nanoparticles Evidence for incorporation of glycoconjugates onto the Au nanoparticles was provided by 1H NMR spectra of Gal-Au (17) and Glc-Au (18) (ca. 5 mg per 0.8 mL D 2 O), which showed typical broadening characteristic of mono-layer protected gold clusters. See, for example, Terrill, R. H.; Postlethwhaite, T. A.; Chen, C.-H.; Poon, C.-D.; Terzis, A.; Chen, A.; Hutchison, J. E.; Clark, M. R; Wignall, G. D.; Londono, J.
  • Figure 3 a represents a typical AFM topograph of the Gal-Au (17) nanoparticles.
  • the height measured from the cursor profiles in the AFM topographic images was utilized to quantify the particle diameter.
  • the cursor profile in Figure 3b shows the diameters of the three particles are 2.0 nm, 1.6 nm and 2.1 nm, respectively. With 162 nanoparticles imaged, the measured height, i.e. the particle diameter ranged from 1.2 to 4.2 nm.

  • Biotin ⁇ eutrAvidinTM Adhesion Assays (B ⁇ AA): Recombinant gpl20 ⁇ ⁇ B (HJN- 1)-HRP was obtained from Bartels - A Trinity Biotech Company, Reacti-BindTM
  • Dried analyte 16 and freeze-dried analytes 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, and 20 were weighed out to the tenth of a microgram using a Satorius BL 120S balance.
  • Stock solutions were prepared at 1 mg/mL in 20% DMSO/80% PBS buffer. The solutions were thoroughly mixed prior to further dilution in PBS, and they were stored at -80 °C between uses.
  • the concentration of bGalCer as well as biotinamide (blocking agent) utilized in the assays was 20 ⁇ g/mL.
  • the plates were prepared by first incubating with bGalCer and biotinamide.
  • a solution of rgpl20-HRP was prepared before use by 1 :3 dilution of a 500 ⁇ L stock vial containing 0.333 ⁇ g rgpl20-HRP with PBS buffer and introduced into the wells.
  • analytes 14, 15, 16 were incubated at concentrations of 0.1, 1, 10, 100, 500, 1000 ⁇ g/mL and the Au nanoparticles 17, 18, 19 were assayed at concentrations of 1, 10, 20, 40, 80, 100, 200, 400 ⁇ g/mL on a JitterbugTM microplate incubator (Boekel).
  • the addition of rgpl20 was omitted and the contribution of Sp-Au (19) to background absorbance was monitored at each concentration.
  • the plate absorbances were read every min for 20 min at 630 nm (with 5 s shaking before each reading) using a Bio-Rad model 550 microplate reader. Each well reading had the TMB blank automatically subtracted through the use of the Biorad Microplate manager software. Endpoints were read at 415 nm after addition of 100 ⁇ L of 2 N H 2 SO 4 to each well. The results given for these assays are representative of several separate experiments.
  • the EC 50 value represents the concentration of the compound required to induce 50% displacement of rgpl20-HRP bound to bGalCer.
  • the EC 50 values were calculated from dose-response curves (rgpl20 bound to bGalCer in % vs. analyte cone.) plotted using exponential trendlines (Microsoft® Excel 2000). The error was determined using a transformed regression model (Microsoft® Excel 2000).
  • the calculated EC 50 values for Au glyconanoparticles include an additional error reflected in the elemental analysis (Gal-Au (17):1.5%; Glc-Au (18): 1.4%; and Sp-Au (19): 1.2%).
  • the Gal-S2 (14) required approximately 1 mg/mL to displace 50% of bound rgpl20 indicating that it was about twice as active as the Glc-S2 (15) analog.
  • Au nanoparticles functionalized with only the spacer acid (19) showed similar activity to the glycosylated disulfides (2.4 mg/mL). This activity is attributed to non-specific electrostatic interactions of the highly negatively charged surface (free acid functionality) with basic amino acids present in rgpl20. See, Rico-Lattes, I.; Gouzy, M.-F., Andre-Barres, C; Guidetti, B.; Lattes, A. New J. Chem. 1998, 22, 451.
  • Table 1 ECso values calculated from dose-response curves (graph: % rgpl20 bound to bGalCer vs. analyte cone.) plotted using exponential trendlines
  • the Au glyconanoparticles 17 and 18 exhibit significantly higher activity (>300X) when compared to the corresponding disulfides 14 and 15, respectively, even without factoring in the gold content.
  • Table 1 the molecular weight of Gal-Au and Glc-Au is 96,190 and 101,676 g/mol respectively, which correlates with mM EC50 values of 5.6 and 13.6 x 10-5, respectively.
  • Whitesides and co- workers have described a term ⁇ that relates mono- and polyvalency by accounting for the difference in the number of ligands presented to the protein in each case. See, Mammen, M.; Choi, S.K.; Whitesides, G.M., Angew.
  • the ⁇ values indicate that the galactosyl containing disulfide (14) has approximately twice the activity of the glucosyl disulfide (15), yet 14 is only 12% as active as biotinylated GalCer (20). This is not surprising, since several studies have shown that a lipid component is required for maximal affinity.
  • the relative activity between galactosyl and glucosyl head groups is maintained in the Au glyconanoparticles with 17 being approximately twice as active as 18. However, 17 is 450x more active than 14 (54 divided by 0.12) and 18 is > 300x more active than 15 (22 divided by 0.07).
  • the enhanced binding activity of the Au glyconanoparticles relative to the disulfides may be due to fundamental changes in the recognition process of divalent vs. polyvalent species resulting in formation of thermodynamically more stable polyvalent ligand/rgpl20 complexes.
  • kinetic factors reflecting differences in on/off rates of divalent and polyvalent ligands may account for the enhanced activity. See, Liang, R., Loebach, J., Horan, N., Ge, M., Thompson, C, Yan, L., Kahne, D., Pro Natil. Acad. Set., 1997, 94, 10554- 10559 and references therein.
  • This example illustrates the preparation of mixed glyconanoparticles, t.e., gold glyconanoparticles containing a mixture of a glycoconjugate and a linking group, wherein the glycoconjugate to linking group ratio is about 75:25, 50:50, or 25:75.
  • Number for the compounds prepared corresponds to the numbering in Figure 7.
  • WO 02/32404 A2 a freshly prepared 25 mM solution of hydrogen tetrachloroaurate (III) hydrate (0.167 mmol, 1 eq) in MeOH was added to a mixture of a freshly prepared 12 mM solution of one of the glycoconjugate disulfide derivatives (14, 15) and the disulfide derivative (23) (i.e., Sp-OH) at molar ratios of 75:25, 50:50, and 25:75 (total 0.25 mmol, total 1.5 eq) in MeOH. Under vigorous stirring, a freshly prepared 1 M solution of NaBH 4 (3.34 mmol, 20 eq) in MeOH was added drop wise. Under liberation of H 2 , dark- brown suspensions formed instantly.
  • the mixed glyconanoparticles Gal/Sp-COOH-Au (27) and Glc/Sp- COOH-Au (28) were prepared from a mixture of one of the glycoconjugate disulfide derivatives (14, 15) and the disulfide derivative (16) (i.e., Sp-COOH) at molar ratios of 75:25, 50:50, and 25:75 (total 0.25 mmol, total 1.5 eq) in MeOH.
