Minimalist Tetrazine <i>N</i>‑Acetyl Muramic Acid Probes for Rapid and Efficient Labeling of Commensal and Pathogenic Peptidoglycans in Living Bacterial Culture and During Macrophage Invasion

N-Acetyl muramic acid (NAM) probes containing alkyne or azide groups are commonly used to investigate aspects of cell wall synthesis because of their small size and ability to incorporate into bacterial peptidoglycan (PG). However, copper-catalyzed alkyne–azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions are not compatible with live cells, and strain-promoted alkyne–azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) reaction rates are modest and, therefore, not as desirable for tracking the temporal alterations of bacterial cell growth, remodeling, and division. Alternatively, the tetrazine-trans-cyclooctene ligation (Tz-TCO), which is the fastest known bioorthogonal reaction and not cytotoxic, allows for rapid live-cell labeling of PG at biologically relevant time scales and concentrations. Previous work to increase reaction kinetics on the PG surface by using tetrazine probes was limited because of low incorporation of the probe. Described here are new approaches to construct a minimalist tetrazine (Tz)-NAM probe utilizing recent advancements in asymmetric tetrazine synthesis. This minimalist Tz-NAM probe was successfully incorporated into pathogenic and commensal bacterial PG where fixed and rapid live-cell, no-wash labeling was successful in both free bacterial cultures and in coculture with human macrophages. Overall, this probe allows for expeditious labeling of bacterial PG, thereby making it an exceptional tool for monitoring PG biosynthesis for the development of new antibiotic screens. The versatility and selectivity of this probe will allow for real-time interrogation of the interactions of bacterial pathogens in a human host and will serve a broader utility for studying glycans in multiple complex biological systems
