In order to investigate the action mechanism of PIPx, it is desirable to synthesize affinity column of PI-3,4-P-2, which is expected to be able to isolate the binding proteins of PI-3,4-P-2. Thyramine reacted with CH-Sepharose 4B giving column 13. The p-amino group of 3'-(1',2'-distearoyl-glyceryl)-1-(2-p-aminobenzyl)-3,4-di-O-phosphoryl-myo-inosityl phosphate (12) was diazotized, then diazo-coupled with column 13 to give PI-3,4-P-2 affinity column 14. This PI-3,4-P-2 affinity column is an effective tool to pick up binding proteins of PI-3,4-P-2.展开更多
