Sortase A-mediated chemoenzymatic synthesis of complex glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein

Abstract

Green fluorescent protein and a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor containing the common core structure and a lipid chain were synthesized and then coupled together in the promotion of bacterial sortase A (SrtA), which was the first example for the synthesis of a full-size GPI-anchored protein by SrtA, demonstrating that this can be a generally useful method for GPI-anchored protein synthesis.
