Description générale

1-Cyano-4-dimethylaminopyridinium tetrafluoroborate (CDAP) is crucial in vaccine and biochemical research. It rapidly activates polysaccharides, like TI-2 antigens, in a short time. Further, CDAP enables protein conjugation, vital for creating conjugate vaccines that enhance immune responses. CDAP works effectively at both pH 9-10 and mild alkaline conditions (pH 7-9), making it versatile for various antigens. CDAP′s efficacy in inducing high antibody levels makes it invaluable for developing effective vaccines and immunological reagents.

Application

1-Cyano-4-dimethylamino pyridinium tetrafluoroborate can be used in vaccine research for the conjugation of polysaccharides with proteins

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

CDAP is a cyanylation reagent for protein sulfhydryl groups which is used to prepare protein-polysaccharide conjugates. CDAP is also an activating agent for polysaccharide resins and is used for the conjugation of lipopolysaccharides while retaining their endotoxic activity.

CDAP is considered to be a less toxic reagent as compared to cyanogen bromide (CNBr) (a known polysaccharides activator). In addition, CDAP is easier to use as it can be employed at a lower pH and has fewer side reactions. It is known that CDAP polysaccharide activation efficiency is optimal at pH 9-10. It was also reported that direct conjugation of protein to CDAP-activated polysaccharides can be performed under mildly alkaline conditions (pH 7-9). It has also been reported that proteins could also be conjugated to CDAP-activated polysaccharides at pH 5.

Caractéristiques et avantages

  • Readily available solution, that reduces the need for preparation time
  • Versatile and adaptable for vaccine and biochemical research

Notes préparatoires

Polysaccharide conjugation: CDAP Ready Made Solution (100mg/mL in acetonitrile) should be added in a ratio of 1mg CDAP to 1mg polysaccharide while vortexing (Example: per 1mg polysaccharide add 10μL of CDAP Ready Made Solution). Add 0.2M triethylamine, 10μL per 1mg polysaccharide to raise the pH of the reaction.

Neonates have poor immune responses to type 2 T-cell independent antigens (TI-2), such as polysaccharides and immunization of human infants with these antigens does not induce protective levels of serum antibodies. Conjugating proteins to TI-2 antigens converts the immune response
D E Shafer et al.
Vaccine, 18(13), 1273-1281 (2000-01-29)
Covalently linking protein to polysaccharides converts the anti-polysaccharide immune response from a T-cell independent response to one which is T-cell dependent. The organic cyanylating reagent 1-cyano-4-dimethylaminopyridinium tetrafluoroborate (CDAP) (Vaccine 14:190, 1996) has been used to activate polysaccharides, which can then
