Microbial peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases (PPIases): virulence factors and potential alternative drug targets.
Initially discovered in the context of immunomodulation, peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases (PPIases) were soon identified as enzymes catalyzing the rate-limiting protein folding step at peptidyl bonds preceding proline residues. Intense searches revealed that PPIases are a superfamily of proteins consisting of three structurally distinguishable families with representatives in every describe...
متن کاملDiversity-Oriented Syntheses of Natural Products and Natural Product-Like Compounds
Natural products have proven to be valuable sources for the identification of new drug candidates, and also as tools for chemical biology and medicinal chemistry research [1]. In fact, if we trace back human history, many natural products have also long been used to treat various human disorders and distinguished by their drug-like properties [2]. To date, tens of thousands of bioactive compoun...
متن کاملCellular targets of natural products.
Natural products have evolved, at least in part, to bind to biological macromolecules, particularly proteins. As a result, natural products are able to interact with many specific targets within the cell. Indeed for many years this has been central in the drug development process. Today, however, natural products are finding increasing use as probes to interrogate biological systems as part of ...
متن کاملNatural products to drugs: natural product derived compounds in clinical trials.
Natural product and natural product-derived compounds that are being evaluated in clinical trials or in registration (current 31 December 2004) have been reviewed. Natural product derived drugs launched in the United States of America, Europe and Japan since 1998 and new natural product templates discovered since 1990 are discussed.
متن کاملSynthesis of natural product-inspired compound libraries
An important aim in biology research is the elucidation of the role of proteins in complex, dynamic biological systems through the selective perturbation of their function. In contrast to genetic perturbations, chemical perturbations of protein function are conditional, acute, easily tuneable and reversible. [1] Furthermore, drug development still largely depends on the availability of bioactiv...
