The synthetic scheme and characterization of EP12-BTMR-X.
(a) The synthesis of EP12-BTMR-X is a simple two step reaction, which utilizes a microwave reactor to complete the reaction in 5 minutes. (b) The addition of BODIPY TMR-X does not significantly disrupt the high binding affinity of exendin-4 for the glucagon-like-1 receptor as demonstrated by an 125I-exendin (9–39) competitive binding study.
