Comparative selectivity and specificity of the proteasome inhibitors BzLLLCOCHO, PS-341, and MG-132.

The 26S proteasome is a multicatalytic protease responsible for regulated intracellular protein degradation. Its function is mediated by three main catalytic activities: (a) chymotrypsin-like (CT-L), (b) trypsin-like, and (c) peptidylglutamyl peptide hydrolysing (PGPH). Proteasome inhibition is an emerging therapy for many cancers and is a novel treatment for multiple myeloma. Here, we profile ...

Loss of mitochondrial function often leads to neurodegeneration and is thought to be one of the underlying causes of neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, the precise events linking mitochondrial dysfunction to neuronal death remain elusive. PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1) and Parkin (Park), either of which, when mutated, are responsible for early-onset PD...

A recent medicinal chemistry campaign to identify positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) of metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGluR5) led to the discovery of potent compounds featuring an oxazolidinone structural core flanked by biaryl acetylene and haloaryl moieties. However, biotransformation studies of some of these mGluR5 PAMs demonstrated the formation of glutathione (GSH) conjugat...
