Abstract

The optimal structure of synthetic glycopolymers for GM1 mimetics was determined through Bayesian optimization. The interactions of glycopolymers carrying galactose and neuraminic acid units in different compositions with cholera toxin B subunit (CTB) were assessed by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Gaussian process regression, using the ELISA results, predicted the composition of glycopolymers that would exhibit stronger interactions with CTB. Following five cycles of optimization, the glycopolymers carrying 60 mol% galactose and 25 mol% neuraminic acid demonstrated an IC50 value of 75 μM for CTB, representing the lowest value among the synthesized glycopolymers.
