“…[25][26] We have earlier studied TPA as a zinc chelator, 27 however, we now wanted to study dipicolylamine (DPA) as the chelating moiety. [28][29] As metal chelators are generally toxic, we need a chelator that is selective for zinc, and by selective we mean that they bind weaker to iron, manganese, sodium, potassium, calcium and other relevant biological cations than to zinc. The DPA based zinc chelators we use fit this criterion and that is why, we think, we are able to get a decent toxicity profile.…”

“…We have earlier studied the effect of tris-picolylamine (TPA) derivatives as MBL inhibitors. 13 In this work, we chose to vary the zinc binding strength by using N, N-dipicolylamine (DPA), 14 N,N-dipicolyl-N-triazolylmethylamine (DPTA), N,N-dipicolyl ethylenediamine (DPED) and trispicolyl ethylenediamine (TPED) as starting points. The chelators were attached to various peptides, using peptide coupling reagents, to produce chelator-peptide constructs as putative MBL inhibitors.…”

“…The development of chemical probes for sensing metal ions [1][2][3][4][5][6] and anions [7][8][9][10][11] has received considerable attention due to their fundamental applications in chemical, environmental and biological fields. For example, despite the fact that zinc has significant roles in catalytic centers and serves as structural cofactor of many Zn 2+ -containing enzymes and DNA-binding proteins, [12][13][14][15][16][17] an unregulated zinc level in the body may lead to a number of severe neurological diseases (e.g. Alzheimer's disease, cerebral ischemia, and epilepsy), developmental defects, and malfunctions.…”
