title: Synthesis of novel fluorescent-labelled dinucleoside polyphosphates.
abstract: A novel tandem synthetic-biosynthetic procedure is described for the synthesis of four new fluorescent dinucleoside polyphosphates: mant-Ap4A, mant-AppCH2ppA, TNP-Ap4A and TNP-AppCH2ppA. These compounds are expected to supplement the existing etheno (epsilon) and 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) labelled derivatives, being the fluorescent probes of choice to investigate polyphosphate/enzyme binding behaviour.
