Chemo-enzymatic synthesis of silybin and 2,3-dehydrosilybin dimers.
Divalent or multivalent molecules often show enhanced biological activity relative to the simple monomeric units. Here we present enzymatically and chemically prepared dimers of the flavonolignans silybin and 2,3-dehydrosilybin. Their electrochemical behavior was studied by in situ and ex situ square wave voltammetry. The oxidation of monomers and dimers was similar, but adsorption onto the ele...
متن کاملEnzymatic and chemo-enzymatic synthesis of carbohydrates
Carbohydrate-mediated biochemical recognition processes are potential targets for drug development. The synthesis of complex carbohydrates and related structures, however, has been a difficult task, especially from practical point of view. New solutionand solidphase methods based on enzymatic and a combined enzymatic and chemical procedure have recently been developed for the practical synthesi...
متن کاملSignificantly greater antioxidant anticancer activities of 2,3-dehydrosilybin than silybin.
Silybin or silymarin extract has been used to treat liver diseases, and has now been entered into clinical trials for cancer treatment. Here, we compared antioxidant and anticancer activities between silybin and its oxidized form 2,3-dehydrosilybin (DHS). With IC50 at three-fold lower concentrations than silybin, DHS inhibited reactive oxygen species generation in glucose-glucose oxidase system...
متن کاملChemo-Enzymatic Synthesis of Oligoglycerol Derivatives.
A cleaner and greener method has been developed and used to synthesize 14 different functionalized oligomer derivatives of glycerol in moderate 29%-39% yields over three steps. After successive regioselective enzymatic acylation of the primary hydroxyl groups, etherification or esterification of the secondary hydroxyl groups and chemoselective enzymatic saponification, the target compounds can ...
متن کاملChemo-enzymatic synthesis of amino acids and derivatives
A short overview is given of new developments in the chemo-enzymatic synthesis of amino acids. Amino acid resolution procedures based on stereoselective enzymatic hydrolysis of amino acid amides have been developed. Two enzymes, an aminopeptidase from Pseudomonas putida and an amidase from Hycobacterium neoaurum have been purified to homogeneity. In addition, methods for the stereoselective syn...
