Bivalent enzyme inhibitors discovered using dynamic covalent chemistry.

چکیده
A bivalent dynamic covalent chemistry (DCC) system has been designed to selectively target members of the homodimeric glutathione-S-transferase (GST) enzyme family. The dynamic covalent libraries (DCLs) use aniline-catalysed acylhydrazone exchange between bivalent hydrazides and glutathione-conjugated aldehydes and the bis-hydrazides act as linkers to bridge between each glutathione binding site. The resultant DCLs were found to be compatible and highly responsive to templating with different GST isozymes, with the best results coming from the M and Schistosoma japonicum (Sj) class of GSTs, targets in cancer and tropical disease, respectively. The approach yielded compounds with selective, nanomolar affinity (K(i) =61 nM for mGSTM1-1) and demonstrates that DCC can be used to simultaneously interrogate binding sites on different subunits of a dimeric protein.

1,3-dialkyl 3-phenylpyrrolidine-2, 5-diones were modified to produce potential steroid sulphatase inhibitors. These modifications were aimed at producing compounds, which could be expected to bind reasonably well to the active site of the steroid sulphatase enzyme but could not be hydrolyzed readily by the enzyme due to the covalent S-C bond present. In this regard the sulphinic acid deriv...

Thiosemicarbazones (TSCs) possess significant antimalarial properties believed to be linked to the inhibition of major cysteine proteases, such as falcipain-2, in Plasmodium falciparum. However, the binding modes of TSCs to the active site of these enzymes are not clear. As a result of this, the nature of the bonding interactions between the active site of falcipain-2 and different derivatives ...
متن کاملDynamic Covalent Organocatalysts Discovered from Catalytic Systems through Rapid Deconvolution Screening
The first example of a bifunctional organocatalyst assembled through dynamic covalent chemistry (DCC) is described. The catalyst is based on reversible imine chemistry and can catalyze the Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) reaction of enones with aldehydes or N-tosyl imines. Furthermore, these dynamic catalysts were shown to be optimizable through a systemic screening approach, in which large mixture...

ABSTRACT: Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) study on the piperidone-grafted mono- and bis-spirooxindole-hexahydropyrrolizines as potent butyrylcholinestrase (BuChE) inhibitors were carried out using statistical methods, molecular dynamics and molecular docking simulation. QSAR methodologies, including classification and regression tree (CART), multiple linear regression (MLR),...
متن کاملA rapid oxime linker-based library approach to identification of bivalent inhibitors of the Yersinia pestis protein-tyrosine phosphatase, YopH.
A bivalent tethered approach toward YopH inhibitor development is presented that joins aldehydes with mixtures of bis-aminooxy-containing linkers using oxime coupling. The methodology is characterized by its facility and ease of use and its ability to rapidly identify low micromolar affinity inhibitors. The generality of the approach may potentially make it amenable to the development of bivale...
