Pharmaceutics 2024; 16:617. [PMID: 38794279 PMCID: PMC11125112 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics16050617] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2024] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
The potential for native proteins to serve as a platform for biocompatible, targeted, and personalized therapeutics in the context of genetic and metabolic disorders is vast. Nevertheless, their clinical application encounters challenges, particularly in overcoming biological barriers and addressing the complexities involved in engineering transmembrane permeability. This study is dedicated to the development of a multifunctional nanoentity in which a model therapeutic protein is covalently linked to a cell-penetrating peptide, NickFect 55, with the objective of enhancing its intracellular delivery. Successful binding of the nanoentity fragments was achieved through the utilization of an intein-mediated protein-trans splicing reaction. Our research demonstrates that the fully assembled nanoentity-containing protein was effectively internalized by the cells, underscoring the potential of this approach in overcoming barriers associated with protein-based therapeutics for the treatment of genetic disorders.

Abstract
Peptide and protein nanostructures with tunable structural features, multifunctionality, biocompatibility and biomolecular recognition capacity enable development of efficient targeted drug delivery tools for precision medicine applications. In this review article, we present various techniques employed for the synthesis and self-assembly of peptides and proteins into nanostructures. We discuss design strategies utilized to enhance their stability, drug-loading capacity, and controlled release properties, in addition to the mechanisms by which peptide nanostructures interact with target cells, including receptor-mediated endocytosis and cell-penetrating capabilities. We also explore the potential of peptide and protein nanostructures for precision medicine, focusing on applications in personalized therapies and disease-specific targeting for diagnostics and therapeutics in diseases such as cancer.

Abstract
Peptide stapling is recognized as an effective strategy for improving the proteolytic stability and cell permeability of peptides. In this study, we present a novel approach for the site-selective unsymmetric perfluoroaryl stapling of Ser and Cys residues in unprotected peptides. The stapling reaction proceeds smoothly under very mild conditions, exhibiting a remarkably rapid reaction rate. It can furnish stapled products in both liquid and solid phases, and the presence of nucleophilic groups other than Cys thiol within the peptide does not impede the reaction, resulting in uniformly high yields. Importantly, the chemoselective activation of Ser β-C(sp3)-H enables the unreacted -OH to serve as a reactive handle for subsequent divergent modification of the staple moiety with various therapeutic functionalities, including a clickable azido group, a polar moiety, a lipid tag, and a fluorescent dye. In our study, we have also developed a visible-light-induced chemoselective C(sp3)-H polyfluoroarylation of the Ser β-position. This reaction avoids interference with the competitive reaction of Ser -OH, enabling the precise late-stage polyfluoroarylative modification of Ser residues in various unprotected peptides containing other highly reactive amino acid residues. The biological assay suggested that our peptide stapling strategy would potentially enhance the proteolytic stability and cellular permeability of peptides.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass represents an abundant and eco-friendly material widely explored in recent years. The main lignocellulosic fractions include cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. Nonetheless, the heterogeneity and complexity of these components pose challenges in achieving the desired properties. Conversely, their attractive functional groups can covalently link with other biomolecules, facilitating the creation and enhancement of material properties. Lignocellulosic molecules can form different linkages with other biomolecules through classic and modern methods. Bioconjugation has emerged as a suitable alternative to create new nuances, empowering the linkage between lignocellulosic materials and biomolecules through linkers. These conjugates (lignocellulosic-linkers-biomolecules) attract attention from stakeholders in medicine, chemistry, biology, and agriculture. The plural formations of these biocomplexes highlight the significance of these arrangements. Therefore, this review provides an overview of the progress of lignocellulosic-biomolecule complexes and discusses different types of covalent bioconjugated systems, considering the formation of linkers, applicability, toxicity, and future challenges.

Abstract
Viral infections pose a significant threat to human health, and effective antiviral strategies are urgently needed. Antiviral peptides have emerged as a promising class of therapeutic agents due to their unique properties and mechanisms of action. While effective on their own, combining antiviral peptides may allow us to enhance their potency and to prevent viral resistance. Here, we developed an orthogonal chemical strategy to prepare a heterodimeric peptide conjugate assembled on a protein-based nanoplatform. Specifically, we combined the optimized version of two peptides inhibiting HIV-1 by distinct mechanisms. Virus-inhibitory peptide (VIRIP) is a 20 amino acid fragment of α1-antitrypsin that inhibits HIV-1 by targeting the gp41 fusion peptide. Endogenous peptide inhibitor of CXCR4 (EPI-X4) is a 16-residue fragment of human serum albumin that prevents HIV-1 entry by binding to the viral CXCR4 co-receptor. Optimized forms of both peptides are assembled on supramolecular nanoplatforms through the streptavidin-biotin interaction. We show that the construct consisting of the two different peptides (SAv-VIR-102C9-EPI-X4 JM#173-C) shows increased activity against CCR5- and CXCR4-tropic HIV-1 variants. Our results are a proof of concept that peptides with different modes of action can be assembled on nanoplatforms to enhance their antiviral activity.

Abstract
Bioconjugation of proteins can substantially expand the opportunities in biopharmaceutical development, however, applications are limited for the gene editing machinery despite its tremendous therapeutic potential. Here, a self-delivered nanomedicine platform based on bioorthogonal CRISPR/Cas9 conjugates, which can be armed with a chemotherapeutic drug for combinatorial therapy is introduced. It is demonstrated that multi-functionalized Cas9 with a drug and polymer can form self-condensed nanocomplexes, and induce significant gene editing upon delivery while avoiding the use of a conventional carrier formulation. It is shown that the nanomedicine platform can be applied for combinatorial therapy by incorporating the anti-cancer drug olaparib and targeting the RAD52 gene, leading to significant anti-tumor effects in BRCA-mutant cancer. The current development provides a versatile nanomedicine platform for combination treatment of human diseases such as cancer.

Abstract
Peptide stapling is a robust strategy for generating enzymatically stable, macrocyclic peptides. The incorporation of biologically relevant tags (such as cell-penetrating motifs or fluorescent dyes) into peptides, while preserving their binding interactions and enhancing their stability, is highly sought after. Despite the unique opportunities offered by tryptophan's indole scaffold for targeted functionalisation, its utilisation in peptide stapling has been limited as compared to other amino acids. Herein, we present an approach for peptide stapling using the tryptophan-mediated Petasis reaction. This method enables the synthesis of both stapled and labelled peptides and is applicable to both solution and solid-phase synthesis. Importantly, the use of the Petasis reaction in combination with tryptophan facilitates the formation of stapled peptides in a straightforward, multicomponent fashion, while circumventing the formation of undesired by-products. Furthermore, this approach allows for efficient and diverse late-stage peptide modifications, thereby enabling rapid production of numerous conjugates for biological and medicinal applications.

Abstract
The Ugi four-component reaction (Ugi-4CR) undoubtedly is the most prominent multicomponent reaction (MCRs) that has sparked organic chemists' interest in the field. It has been widely used in the synthesis of diverse heterocycle molecules such as potential drugs, natural product analogs, pseudo peptides, macrocycles, and functional materials. The Ugi-4CRs involve the use of an amine, an aldehyde or ketone, an isocyanide, and a carboxylic acid to produce an α-acetamido carboxamide derivative, which has significantly advanced the field of isocyanide-based MCRs. The so-called intermediate nitrilium ion could be trapped by a nucleophile such as azide, N-hydroxyphthalimide, thiol, saccharin, phenol, water, and hydrogen sulfide instead of the original carboxylic acid to allow for a wide variety of Ugi-type reactions to occur.β In addition to isocyanide, there are alternative reagents for the other three components: amine, isocyanide, and aldehyde or ketone. All these alternative components render the Ugi reaction an aptly diversity-oriented synthesis of a myriad of biologically active molecules and complex scaffolds. Consequently, this review will delve deeper into alternative components used in the Ugi MCRs, particularly over the past ten years.

Abstract
Multicomponent reactions 9i.e., those that engage three or more starting materials to form a product that contains significant fragments of all of them), have been widely employed in the construction of compound libraries, especially in the context of diversity-oriented synthesis. While relatively less exploited, their use in target-oriented synthesis offers significant advantages in terms of synthetic efficiency. This review provides a critical summary of the use of multicomponent reactions for the preparation of active pharmaceutical principles.

Abstract
A synthetic protocol for the preparation of α-acyl aminocarboxamides and α-amino amidines is proposed. The selectivity toward each of these two possible products was tuned by simple modifications of the reaction conditions. A broad scope is presented, allowing access to the desired products in up to 87% (Ugi adduct) and 93% (α-amino amidine). Theoretical calculations were carried out, and the analysis led to the proposal of a new mechanistic pathway for the Ugi reaction, in which methanol acts not only as the solvent but also as a reagent. High-resolution (tandem) mass spectrometry experiments allowed the detection and characterization of the key intermediate associated with this new and alternative reaction pathway, thus supporting the theoretical proposal.

Abstract
This year represents the 100th anniversary of the discovery of the Passerini three-component reaction. The related Ugi four-compound reaction was discovered 37 years after the Passerini reaction. Undoubtedly, both reactions are very important multicomponent reactions but the Ugi reactions outperform the Passerini reactions in terms of combinatorial space according to the equation xy [x is the number of building blocks per component, and y is the order of the multicomponent reaction (for Passerini, y = 3; for Ugi, y = 4)]. In this work, a historical but contemporary perspective of the discoveries and innovations of the two reactions is given. From a bird's eye view and in a more general sense, the discovery of novel reactions is discussed and how it relates to inventions and innovations.

Metal-bio functionalized bismuthmagnetite [Fe 3-x Bi x O 4/SiO 2@l-ArgEt 3 +I -/Zn(ii)]: a novel bionanocomposite for the synthesis of 1,2,4,5-tetrahydro-2,4-dioxobenzo[ b][1,4]diazepine malononitriles and malonamides at room temperature and under sonication. RSC Adv 2022; 12:10219-10236.

Abstract
In this work, a new magnetized composite of bismuth (Fe3−xBixO4) was prepared and functionalized stepwise with silica, triethylargininium iodide ionic liquid, and Zn(ii) to prepare a multi-layered core–shell bio-nanostructure, [Fe3−xBixO4/SiO2@l-ArgEt3+I−/Zn(ii)]. The modified bismuth magnetic amino acid-containing nanocomposite was characterized using several techniques including Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX), thermogravimetric/differential scanning calorimetric (TGA/DSC) analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The magnetized bionanocomposite exhibited high catalytic activity for the synthesis of 1,2,4,5-tetrahydro-2,4-dioxobenzo[b][1,4]diazepine malononitriles via five-component reactions between 1,2-phenylenediamines, Meldrum's acid, malononitrile, aldehydes, and isocyanides at room temperature in ethanol. The efficacy of this protocol was also examined to obtain malonamide derivatives via pseudo six-component reactions of 1,4-phenylenediamine, Meldrum's acid, malononitrile, aldehydes, and isocyanides. When the above-mentioned MCRs were repeated under the same conditions with the application of sonication, a notable decrease in the reaction time was observed. The recovery and reusability of the metal-bio functionalized bismuthmagnetite were examined successfully in 3 runs. Furthermore, the characteristics of the recovered Fe3−xBixO4/SiO2@l-ArgEt3+I−/Zn(ii) were investigated though FESEM and EDAX analysis. In this work, a new magnetized composite of bismuth (Fe3−xBixO4) was prepared and functionalized stepwise with silica, triethylargininium iodide ionic liquid, and Zn(ii) to prepare a multi-layered core–shell bio-nanostructure, [Fe3−xBixO4/SiO2@l-ArgEt3+I−/Zn(ii)].![]()

Abstract
Recently, the GlyConnect-oxime (GC) protein conjugation strategy was developed to provide a site-selective glycan-based conjugation strategy as an extension to the in-house developed GlycoDelete (GD) technology. GD gives access to glycoproteins with single GlcNAc, LacNAc, or LacNAc-Sia type glycans on their N-glycosylation sites. We have previously shown that these glycans provide a unique handle for site-selective conjugation as they provide a short, homogeneous and hydrophilic link to the protein backbone. GC focused on the use of chemical and chemo-enzymatic pathways for conjugation of a single molecule of interest via oxime formation or reductive amination. In the current work, we explore multicomponent reactions (MCR), namely Ugi and Passerini reactions, for GlycoDelete glycan directed, site-specific protein conjugation (MC-GC). The use of the Ugi and Passerini multicomponent reactions holds the potential of introducing multiple groups of interest in a single reaction step while creating a hydrophilic peptide-like linker.

Abstract
A new multicomponent reaction involving 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde, amine, and 2-mercaptobenzaldehyde (HAM reaction) has been developed and applied to multicomponent polymerization and controlled radical polymerization for the construction of random and block copolymers. This chemistry features mild reaction conditions, high yield, simple isolation, and water as the only byproduct. With the advantages of the distinct nucleophilicity of thiol and hydroxyl groups, the chemistry could be used for stepwise labeling and modifications on primary amines. The Janus chemical joint formed from this reaction exhibits degradability in buffers and generates the corresponding starting reagents, allowing amine release. Interestingly, the chemical joint exhibits thermally activated reversibility with water as the catalyst. This multicomponent dynamic covalent feature has been applied to the metamorphosis of random and block copolymers, generating polymers with diverse architectures. This chemistry is expected to be broadly applicable to synthetic polymer chemistry and materials science.

Abstract
Multicomponent reactions (MCRs) are recently expanding the plethora of solid-phase protocols for the synthesis and derivatization of peptides. Herein, we describe a solid-phase-compatible strategy based on MCRs as a powerful strategy for peptide cyclization and ligation . We illustrate, using Gramicidin S as a model peptide, how the execution of on-resin Ugi reactions enables the simultaneous backbone N-functionalization and cyclization, which are important types of derivatizations in peptide-based drug development or for incorporation of conjugation handles, or labels.

Abstract
The conjugation of biomolecules to magnetic nanoparticles has emerged as promising approach in biomedicine as the treatment of several diseases, such as cancer. In this study, conjugation of bioactive peptide fractions from germinated soybeans to magnetite nanoparticles was achieved. Different fractions of germinated soybean peptides (>10 kDa and 5-10 kDa) were for the first time conjugated to previously coated magnetite nanoparticles (with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) and sodium citrate) by the Ugi four-component reaction. The crystallinity of the nanoparticles was corroborated by X-ray diffraction, while the particle size was determined by scanning transmission electron microscopy. The analyses were carried out using infrared and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, and thermogravimetry, which confirmed the coating and functionalization of the magnetite nanoparticles and conjugation of different peptide fractions on their surfaces. The antioxidant activity of the conjugates was determined by the reducing power and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity. The nanoparticles synthesized represent promising materials, as they have found applications in bionanotechnology for enhanced treatment of diseases, such as cancer, due to a higher antioxidant capacity than that of fractions without conjugation. The highest antioxidant capacity was observed for a >10 kDa peptide fraction conjugated to the magnetite nanoparticles coated with APTES.

Abstract
Recently, multi-component reactions (MCRs) have gained special attention due to their versatility for the synthesis of polycyclic heterocycles. Moreover, their applicability can become more widespread as they can be combined together as a union of MCRs. In this overview, the authors have tried to collect the MCRs containing more than seven components that can lead to effectual heterocycles in organic and/or pharmaceutical chemistry. The review contains papers published up to the end of 2020. The subject is classified based on the number of substrates, such as seven-, eight-, nine-, ten-, and more components. The authors expect their report to be helpful for researchers to clarify their route to significant MCRs.

Abstract
Interactions between proteins and carbohydrates with larger biomacromolecules, e.g., lectins, are usually examined using self-assembled monolayers on target gold surfaces as a simplified model measuring setup. However, most of those measuring setups are either limited to a single substrate or do not allow for control over ligand distance and spacing. Here, we develop a synthetic strategy, consisting of a cascade of a thioesterification, native chemical ligation (NCL) and thiol-ene reaction, in order to create three-component polymer conjugates with a defined double bioactivation at the chain end. The target architecture is the vicinal attachment of two biomolecule residues to the α telechelic end point of a polymer and a thioether group at the ω chain end for fixating the conjugate to a gold sensor chip surface. As proof-of-principle studies for affinity measurements, we demonstrate the interaction between covalently bound mannose and ConA in surface acoustic wave (SAW) and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) experiments.

Abstract
Isocyanides have drawn increasing attention in biological applications due to their attractive properties and unique reactivities, which can undergo various reactions, such as multicomponent reactions, α-addition reactions, [4 + 1] cycloaddition reactions, and the reaction scope keeps expanding. In addition to acting as reactants for the preparation of structurally interesting and diverse N-heterocycles or peptidomimetics, this type of functionality may be a good choice in the labeling and modulation of biomolecules due to the high biocompatibility and small size to minimize modifications on the parent molecule. It has been demonstrated that isocyanides can participate in biomolecule labeling through three strategies, including the two-component bioorthogonal reaction, multicomponent reaction, and metal chelation. Among them, the isocyanide-tetrazine reaction has been better studied recently, augmenting the potency of isocyanide as a bioorthogonal handle. This review will focus on the recent progress in isocyanide chemistry for labeling of biomolecules. Meanwhile, methods to introduce isocyano groups into biomacromolecules are also described to facilitate wider applications of this unique functionality.

Abstract
In this work, we describe the application of a synthetic enzyme (synzyme) as the catalyst to promote the multicomponent synthesis of isoxazol-5(4H)-one derivatives. The catalytic system could be used up to 15 times without any notable loss of its activity. Some derivatives showed fluorescence and their photophysical data were evaluated. The mechanism of the reaction was, for the first time, investigated and, among the three reaction pathway possibilities, only one was operating under the developed conditions. ESI-MS(/MS) allowed for both the simultaneous monitoring of the multicomponent reaction (MCR) and the proposition of a kinetic model to explain the transformation. The kinetic model pointed firmly to only one reaction pathway and helped to discard the other two possibilities. The antimicrobial abilities of all synthesized derivatives against Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains were also evaluated. The abilities of functional chromophores (fluorescent compounds) as live cell-imaging probes were verified and one of the multicomponent adducts could stain early endosomes selectively in bioimaging experiments.

Abstract
Chiral amino acid-derived formamides represent one of the most versatile components in multicomponent reactions. Herein, we describe a facile synthesis of Nβ-protected amino sulfenyl methyl formamides and sulfonyl methyl formamides via the Mannich reaction of Nα-protected amino alkyl thiols followed by oxidation using 3-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA). This protocol is applicable to a wide range of Fmoc- and Cbz-protected amino acids. Notably, the reaction provides high yield and retains the stereochemistry of the chiral center of the starting component.

Abstract
We review the most innovative efforts and greatest challenges faced when elucidating multicomponent reactions (MCRs) mechanisms. When compared to traditional reactions, the often two or more concurrent reactions pathways and the greater number of possible intermediates in MCRs turn their mechanistic investigation both a harder and trickier task. The common approaches used to investigate reaction mechanisms are often unable to clarify MCRs mechanisms; hence few but clever approaches are currently used to determine these mechanisms and to depict their key transformations. Their complexity has required most innovative approaches and the use of a number of unique techniques that have shed light over the favored pathway selected from the myriad of alternatives theoretically available for MCRs. This review focuses on the most successful efforts applied by a few leading groups to perform these puzzlingly investigations.

Abstract
Solid-phase synthesis represents the methodological showcase for technological advances such as split-and-pool combinatorial chemistry and the automated synthesis of peptides, nucleic acids and polysaccharides. These strategies involve iterative coupling cycles that do not generate functional diversity besides that incorporated by the amino acids, nucleosides and monosaccharide building blocks. In sharp contrast, multicomponent reactions (MCRs) are traditionally used to generate both skeletal and appendage diversity in short, batchwise procedures. On-resin MCRs have traditionally been employed for the construction of heterocycle and peptidomimetic libraries, but that scenario has changed recently, and today the focus is more on the solid-phase derivatization of peptides and oligonucleotides. This review presents relevant experimental details and addresses the synthetic scope of such on-resin multicomponent protocols employed to accomplish specific biopolymer covalent modifications that are practically inviable by traditional solution-phase methodologies. Recommendations are provided to facilitate the implementation of solid-supported protocols and avoid possible pitfalls associated with the selection of the polymeric resin, the solvent and the order and amount of the reagents employed. We describe procedures comprising the multicomponent lipidation, biotinylation and labeling of both termini and the side chains, as well as the use of MCRs in the traceless on-resin synthesis of ligated and cyclic peptides. Solid-phase protocols for the assembly of α-helical and parallel β-sheet peptides as well as hybrid peptide-peptoid and peptide-peptide nucleic acid architectures are described. Finally, the solid-supported multicomponent derivatization of DNA oligonucleotides is illustrated as part of the DNA-encoded library technology relying on MCR-derived heterocyclic compounds.

Abstract
A number of bioactive marine natural products have been isolated so far, but it is still difficult to disclose their modes of action. In this study, we prepared fluorescently labeled chemical probes from the cytotoxic marine cyclic peptides kapakahines A (1) and F (2) to visualize their localization as the first step of the study of their modes of action. We used fluorescent dyes 3a or 3a/b (a 1:1 mixture of 3a and 3b) whose terminal N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) group can react with the free amino groups of kapakahines. The fluorescently labeled kapakahine A (Kap A-5-FL, 5a) stained P388 murine leukemia cells and HeLa human cervical cancer cells, while cells treated with fluorescently labeled kapakahine F (Kap F-5-FL, 6a) only weakly stained them. Further analysis of the confocal images of the stained cells with higher magnification (×100) indicated the localization of Kap A-5-FL (5a) in the cells. In this paper, we report the small-scale preparation and a new delivery method of fluorescent probes, as well as the application of these procedures to cell staining.

Abstract
Using the classical Ugi four-component reaction to fuse an amine, ketone, carboxylic acid, and isocyanide, here we prepared a short library of N-alkylated α,α-dialkylglycine derivatives. Due to the polyfunctionality of the dipeptidic scaffold, this highly steric hindered system shows an interesting acidolytic cleavage of the C-terminal amide. In this regard, we studied the structure-acid lability relationship of the C-terminal amide bond (cyclohexylamide) of N-alkylated α,α-dialkylglycine amides 1a–n in acidic media and, afterward, it was established that the most important structural features related to its cleavage. Then, it was demonstrated that electron-donating effects in the aromatic amines, flexible acyl chains (Gly) at the N-terminal and the introduction of cyclic compounds into dipeptide scaffolds, increased the rate of acidolysis. All these effects are related to the ease with which the oxazolonium ion intermediate forms and they promote the proximity of the central carbonyl group to the C-terminal amide, resulting in C-terminal amide cleavage. Consequently, these findings could be applied for the design of new protecting groups, handles for solid-phase synthesis, and linkers for conjugation, due to its easily modulable and the fact that it allows to fine tune its acid-lability.

Abstract
Drug discovery efforts largely depend on access to structural diversity. Multicomponent reactions allow for time-efficient chemical transformations and provide advanced intermediates with three or four points of diversification for further expansion to a structural variety of organic molecules. This review is aimed at solid-phase syntheses of small molecules involving isocyanide-based multicomponent reactions. The majority of all reported syntheses employ the Ugi four-component reaction. The review also covers the Passerini and Groebke-Blackburn-Bienaymé reactions. To date, the main advantages of the solid-phase approach are the ability to prepare chemical libraries intended for biological screening and elimination of the isocyanide odor. However, the potential of multicomponent reactions has not been fully exploited. The unexplored avenues of these reactions, including chiral frameworks, DNA-encoded libraries, eco-friendly synthesis, and chiral auxiliary reactions, are briefly outlined.

Abstract
The property of the isonitrile group to enable the simultaneous α-addition of a strong electrophile and a nucleophile has always attracted the attention of organic chemists. Its versatility is augmented when recognizing that its high structural compactness, the inertia to most of the naturally occurring functional groups, and relatively prolonged physiological and metabolical stability, convert it into the smallest bioorthogonal group. The discovery and optimization of the isonitrile-tetrazine [4+1] cycloaddition as an alternative tool for the development of ligation and decaging strategies and the recently reported reaction of isonitriles with chlorooximes bring new opportunities for the utilization of this functional group in biological systems. Although several approaches have been reported for the synthesis of isonitrile-modified carbohydrates and polysaccharides, its incorporation in proteins has been barely explored. Besides compiling the reported methods for the assembly of isonitrile-modified proteins, this Mini-Review aims at calling attention to the real potential of this modification for protein ligation, decaging, immobilization, imaging, and many other applications at a low structural and functional cost.

Abstract
N-Isocyaniminotriphenylphosphorane (NIITP) is a functionalized isonitrile that has been extensively applied in a variety of organic reactions during the last two decades. This Review summarizes the most important applications in organic synthesis of this versatile reactant, with the focus posed on mechanistic and methodological aspects allowing the generation of molecular diversity. NIITP combines the reactivity of isonitriles with that of phosphoranes to enable chemical transformations employed in the construction of compound libraries. Here, we cover from the initial applications of NIITP in the Nef isocyanide reaction to further derivations that render a variety of heterocyclic scaffolds. The presence of the isonitrile moiety in this singular compound makes possible the double addition of nucleophiles and electrophiles, which followed by inter(intra)molecular aza-Wittig type transformations enable several multicomponent and tandem processes. In particular, we stress the impact of NIITP in oxadiazole chemistry, from the early two-component transformations to recent examples of multicomponent reactions that take place in the presence of suitable electrophiles. In addition, we briefly describe the role of NIITP chemistry in generating skeletal and conformational diversity in cyclic peptides. The reaction of NIITP with alkynes is thoroughly revised, with particular emphasis on silver-catalyzed processes that have been developed in the last years. Biomedicinal applications of some reaction products are also mentioned along with a perspective of future applications of this reactant.

Abstract
Conjugate vaccines against encapsulated pathogens like Streptococcus pneumoniae face many challenges, including the existence of multiple serotypes with a diverse global distribution that constantly requires new formulations and higher coverage. Multivalency is usually achieved by combining capsular polysaccharide-protein conjugates from invasive serotypes, and for S. pneumoniae, this has evolved from 7- up to 20-valent vaccines. These glycoconjugate formulations often contain high concentrations of carrier proteins, which may negatively affect glycoconjugate immune response. This work broadens the scope of an efficient multicomponent strategy, leading to multivalent pneumococcal glycoconjugates assembled in a single synthetic operation. The bioconjugation method, based on the Ugi four-component reaction, enables the one-pot incorporation of two different polysaccharide antigens to a tetanus toxoid carrier, thus representing the fastest approach to achieve multivalency. The reported glycoconjugates incorporate three combinations of capsular polysaccharides 1, 6B, 14, and 18C from S. pneumoniae. The glycoconjugates were able to elicit functional specific antibodies against pneumococcal strains comparable to those shown by mixtures of the two monovalent glycoconjugates.

Abstract
The development of multi-component orthogonal polymerizations (MOPs) with simple procedure and high efficiency is crucial for rational polymer synthesis. In this work, photo-triggered Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) polymerization are first investigated, employing copper(II) thioxanthone carboxylate (Cu(TX)2 ) as photoredox catalyst and sunlight as stimuli. Then, the novel MOPs using one photoredox catalyst, Cu(TX)2 to simultaneously mediate two different photopolymerizations, are successfully realized in one-pot, where photo-induced electron transfer atom transfer radical polymerization and photo-activated CuAAC polymerization can effectively proceed in a one-pot and non-interfering fashion to afford predetermined copolymers with well-defined structure.

A concise and modular total synthesis of the highly potent N14-desacetoxytubulysin H (1) has been accomplished in 18 steps in an overall yield of up to 30%. Our work highlights the complexity-augmenting and route-shortening power of diastereoselective multicomponent reaction (MCR) as well as the role of bulky ligands to perfectly control both the regioselective and diastereoselective synthesis of tubuphenylalanine in just two steps. The total synthesis not only provides an operationally simple and step economy but will also stimulate major advances in the development of new tubulysin analogues.

Abstract
Cerium(III) triflate-catalyzed multicomponent reactions between alkynyl carboxylic acids, tert-butyl isocyanide, and organic azides have been developed. In the presence of Ce(OTf)3 (10 mol %), the cascade reaction of one molecule of alkynyl carboxylic acid with three molecules of tert-butyl isocyanides proceeds chemoselectively and regioselectively via a triple and ordered isocyanide insertion process at room temperature, and then the cesium-catalyzed [3 + 2] cycloaddtion reaction between the resulted alkynyl oxazole and organic azides was further initiated by the temperature elevation (100 °C), thereby leading to multisubstituted triazole-oxazole derivatives in practical, time-saving, one-pot operations. Furthermore, some of the synthesized target compounds showed potential anticancer activities against MGC803 (human gastric cancer cell) with IC50 values below 20 μmol L-1.

Abstract
Bioconjugation is a key approach for the development of novel molecular entities with clinical applications. The biocompatibility and specificity of biomolecules such as peptides, proteins, and antibodies make these macromolecules ideal carriers for selective targeted therapies. In this context, there is a need to develop new molecular units that cover the requirements of the next generation of targeted pharmaceuticals. Here, we present the design and development of a versatile and stable linker based on a N-alkylated α,α-dialkyl dipeptide for bioconjugation, with a particular focus on antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Starting with the well-known Ugi multicomponent reaction, the convenient chemical modification of the prepared adducts allowed us the obtention of versatile bifunctional linkers for bioconjugation. A conjugation strategy was tested to demonstrate the efficiency of the linker. In addition, a novel cytotoxic anti-HER2 ADC was prepared using the Ugi-linker approach.
