The molecular features of 19 synthetic substrates and ground-state analogues of cycloeucalenol, the natural substrate of cycloeucalenol - obtusifoliol isomerase, a membrane-bound enzyme specific to higher plants, and of 9 synthetic carbocationic analogues of the high-energy intermediate occurring during the reaction catalyzed by the isomerase, were related to their ability to be transformed by this enzyme (catalytical competence) and their potency as inhibitors of this enzyme. With substrates and ground-state analogues it has been possible to determine at least two critical domains: significant binding requires the presence of the 3 beta-hydroxyl group on the ring A with the correct stereochemistry together with absence of a 4 beta-methyl group. Moreover initial enzyme-substrate interaction appears to be dependent upon the accessibility of the 3 beta-oxygen. Substitutions on the ring B do not preclude binding whereas they are of great influence on substrate transformation. Modifications of the ring A and other modifications suggest that ground-state and high-energy intermediate analogues bind two different conformations of the isomerase active site. 相似文献

The limits of structural variation of the substituent in position 4' of ring C' of biphenyl colchicine analogues (ring C in colchicine) were probed by the synthesis of a number of analogues and the examination of their binding to tubulin and its consequences. Binding was found to require the location in three-dimensional space of the oxygen in the 4'-substituent at a locus not far distant from those of the colchicine ring C oxygens. All those analogues that bind to the colchicine site of tubulin induced the GTPase activity and inhibited microtubule assembly, those containing a carbonyl group substoichiometrically and the others stoichiometrically. A similar relation was found for the induction of the abnormal polymerization of the colchicine analogue-tubulin complex, with methoxy-containing compounds requiring a higher temperature to induce the polymerization. A concerted analysis of the binding thermodynamics of colchicine and its various analogues has shown full consistency with the previously proposed two-step binding pathway that involves two nonidentical binding moieties in the ligand [Andreu, J. M., & Timasheff, S. N. (1982) Biochemistry 21, 534-543]. Comparison of the binding parameters of colchicine, its des(ring B) analogue (MTC), and ring A and C compounds individually with the thermodynamic parameters deduced for the first steps of the bindings of colchicine and MTC [Engelborghs, Y., & Fitzgerald, T. J. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 5204-5209] have led to the conclusion that binding can occur by two pathways leading to the identical product. In the first pathway, ring A binds first; this is followed by a rate-determining thermodynamically indifferent reaction (protein conformation change), and finally a rapid binding of ring C. In the second pathway, the events are the same except that the order of binding of the rings is reversed. Colchicine, due to the steric hindrance of ring B, can follow only the second pathway. For MTC, both kinetic pathways are open and binding may be initiated by random first contact of either ring A or ring C. 相似文献

Cellotriose and cellotetraose analogues carrying cyclohexene rings were developed as molecular probes which are expected to mimic the transition state conformation of hydrolysis by cellulases. The cyclohexene ring was placed at the pyranose ring being expected to locate the -1 subsite of the enzyme. In order to evaluate these probes, sulfur derivatives of cellotriose and cellotetraose were also synthesized as the enzyme tolerant analogues which mimic the stable conformations of the natural cellulose. The binding assays using differential scanning calorimetry revealed that introduction of the cyclohexene ring is effective to the complexation with an endoglucanase, NCE5 from Humicola insolens. 相似文献

As proline plays an important role in biologically active peptides, many analogues of this residue have been developed to modulate the proportion of cis and trans conformers. A correlation between the pyrrolidine ring shape and structural properties of proline has been established. Diketopiperazine (DKP) is the model of choice to study the influence of the proline ring modification. In this contribution, cyclo(Gly-Pro) and two analogues cyclo(Sip-Pro) and cyclo(Thz-Pro) have been studied with proton NMR. We showed that both analogues with heteroatoms in gamma position, silicon and sulfur respectively, display a more rigid five-member ring. The usual flexibility of proline ring is restrained in both cases and only the two C(beta)-exo and C(beta)-endo conformations are observed. 相似文献

Conformationally restricted analogues of KRN7000, an alpha-d-galactosyl ceramide, were synthesized to examine their bioactivity for mouse natural killer (NK) T cells to produce cytokines. RCAI-8, 9, 51, and 52 are the analogues with a pyrrolidine ring, and RCAI-18, 19, 49, and 50 are those with an azetidine ring. RCAI-18 was shown to be a potent inducer of cytokine production by mouse NKT cells, while RCAI-51 was a moderately active inducer. 相似文献

Several analogues of the potent anthelmintic praziquantel were prepared with variation in the aromatic ring. The biological activity of these analogues was evaluated and compared against known analogues. Amination of the ring was tolerated while other variations were not. These results have important implications for drug development for schistosomiasis. 相似文献

With the aim of creating new bisubstrate inhibitors of protein farnesyltransferase (FTase), new carboxylic farnesyl pyrophosphate analogues have been designed and synthesized. The original structures are built around three elements: a prenyl moiety, a 1,4-diacid motif and an imidazole ring. All the compounds were evaluated for their ability to inhibit FTase and compared with the corresponding derivatives lacking the imidazole ring, synthesized for that purpose. These new compounds are not bisubstrate inhibitors probably because the imidazole ring is not in the right position to interact with the zinc atom. However these derivatives display FPP competitive inhibition with a good activity in the carboxylic farnesyl pyrophosphate analogues series. 相似文献

A series of 1,5-disubstituted tetrazole-tethered combretastatin analogues with extended hydrogen-bond donors at the ortho-positions of the aryl A and B rings were developed and evaluated for their antitubulin and antiproliferative activity. We wanted to test whether intramolecular hydrogen-bonding used as a conformational locking element in these analogues would improve their activity. The correlation of crystal structures with the antitubulin and antiproliferative profiles of the modified analogues suggested that hydrogen-bond-mediated conformational control of the A ring is deleterious to the bioactivity. In contrast, although there was no clear evidence that intramolecular hydrogen bonding to the B ring enhanced activity, we found that increased substitution on the B ring had a positive effect on antitubulin and antiproliferative activity. Among the various analogues synthesized, compounds 5d and 5e, having hydrogen-bonding donor groups at the ortho and meta-positions on the 4-methoxy phenyl B ring, are strong inhibitors of tubulin polymerization and antiproliferative agents having IC50 value in micromolar concentrations. 相似文献

CD spectra of arginine-vasopressin (AVP) and of its analogues substituted in position 1 and/or 7 were measured in aqueous solution at different pH values. The shapes of the CD spectra of AVP analogues substituted in position 1 are strongly influenced by the type of group attached to the beta-carbon of residue 1. The substitution of the proline residues in position 7 by N-methylalanine also leads to a change in conformation of the peptide. The differences in the CD spectra are interpreted in terms of conformational changes, which are due to the interaction of the tyrosine side chain with neighbouring residues (for 1-substituted analogues of AVP), or to that between the hexapeptide ring and acyclic tripeptide chain (for 7-substituted analogues). 相似文献

Bovine beta-(1-->4)-galactosyltransferase was assayed with a series of 5a-carba-sugars, i.e., sugar analogues in which the ring oxygen of pyranose is replaced by a methylene group. The analogues are 5a-carba-sugar of 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-DL-galactopyranose, both alpha and beta anomers of 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-DL-glucopyranose (5a-carba-DL-GlcNAc), and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-DL-mannopyranose. Of these analogues, both alpha and beta anomers of 5a-carba-DL-GlcNAc act as an acceptor. Enzymatic synthesis using the alpha and beta anomers of 5a-carba-DL-GlcNAc afforded the corresponding D-Gal-beta-(1-->4)-5a-carba-alpha-D-GlcNAc and D-Gal-beta-(1-->4)-5a-carba-beta-D-GlcNAc on a practical scale, and these structures were confirmed by NMR spectroscopy. These results indicate that the ring oxygen atom in the 5a-carba-D-GlcNAc is not used for specific recognition by bovine beta-(1-->4)-galactosyltransferase. 相似文献

The binding of the coenzyme to octopine dehydrogenase was investigated by kinetic and spectroscopic studies using different analogues of NAD+. The analogues employed were fragments of the coenzyme molecule and dinucleotides modified on the purine or the pyridine ring. The binding of ADPribose is sufficient to induce local conformational changes necessary for the good positioning of substrates. AMP, ADP, NMN+ and NMNH do not show this effect. Analogues modified on the purine ring such as nicotinamide deaminoadenine dinucleotide, nicotinamide--8-bromoadenine dinucleotide, nicotinamide--8-thioadenine dinucleotide and nicotinamide 1: N6-ethenoadenine dinucleotide bind to the enzyme and give catalytically active ternary complexes. Modifications of the pyridine ring show an important effect on the binding of the coenzyme as well as on the formation of ternary complexes. Thus, the carboxamide group can well be replaced by an acetyl group and also, though less efficiently, by a formyl or cyano group. However more bulky substituents such as thio, chloroacetyl or propionyl groups prevent the binding. The analogues bearing a methyl group in the 4 or 5 position, which are competitive inhibitors, are able to give binary by not ternary complexes. The case of 1,4,5,6-tetrahydronicotinamide--adenine dinucleotide which does not give ternary complexes like NADH is discussed. The above findings show that the pyridine and adenine parts are both involved in the binding of the coenzyme and of the substrate to octopine dehydrogenase. The nicotinamide binding site of this enzyme seems to be the most specific and restricted one among the dehydrogenases so far described. The protective effects of coenzyme analogues towards essential -SH group were also studied. 相似文献

Cyclic 12-, 13- and 14-membered ring angiotensin II analogues related to disulfides but encompassing methylene-dithioether bridges have been prepared. The affinity data from these derivatives were compared to those from the disulfides. The methylenedithioether analogues displayed good binding affinities to rat liver AT1 receptors although in most cases somewhat lower than their disulfide counterparts. One of the methylenedithioethers with a 13-membered ring system demonstrated the highest binding affinity among the thioethers. Theoretical conformational analysis of model compounds of the two series were performed suggesting a similarity between the disulfide and the corresponding methylenedithioether analogues and also between the ring size homologues. This analysis also suggested that some of the model compounds were prone to adopt inverse gamma-turn conformations, which was further supported by use of NMR spectroscopy of the 12-membered ring analogue in the series. The easily executed methylenedithioether cyclization should constitute a valuable complement to the common disulfide methodology for fine-tuning and for probing the bioactive conformation of peptides. 相似文献

Two new photoactive analogues of oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) which are resistant to cleavage by NAD glycohydrolase were synthesized and characterized. The beta-D-ribonucleotide ring of the nicotinamide riboside moiety of NAD+ was replaced with a 2,3-dihydroxycyclopentane ring forming a carbocyclic dinucleotide analogue. Photoreactivity was achieved by the incorporation of an azido group at the 8-position of the adenosyl ring. The previously published synthesis of carbocyclic pyridine dinucleotide analogues [Slama, J. T., & Simmons, A. M. (1988) Biochemistry 27, 183] was modified by resolving the carbocyclic 1-aminoribose analogues and producing optically pure (+)-(1S)- or (-)-(1R)-4 beta-amino-2 alpha,3 alpha-dihydroxy-1 beta-cyclopentanemethanol. Each of these was converted to the corresponding carbocyclic nicotinamide 5'-nucleotide analogue and coupled with 8-azidoadenosine 5'-monophosphate. Two photoactive and isomeric NAD+ analogues were thus prepared. 8-Azidoadenosyl carba-NAD is the analogue in which D-dihydroxycyclopentane is substituted for the D-ribose of the nicotinamide nucleoside moiety. 8-Azido-adenosyl pseudocarba-NAD contains the L-carbocycle in place of the D-ribotide ring. 8-Azidoadenosyl carba-NAD was shown to inhibit the NAD glycohydrolase from Bungarus fasciatus venom competitively with an inhibitor dissociation constant of 187 microM. 8-Azidoadenosyl pseudocarba-NAD was shown to inhibit the same enzyme competitively with a Ki of 73 microM. The superior NADase inhibitor, 8-azidoadenosyl pseudocarba-NAD, was characterized kinetically and shown to fulfill the criteria required of a specific active site directed photoaffinity probe. Irradiation of mixtures of the photoprobe and NAD glycohydrolase with short-wave ultraviolet light resulted in the rapid and irreversible loss of enzyme activity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Enzymatic incorporation of ATP and CTP analogues into the 3' end of tRNA 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
Structural analogues of adenosine 5'-triphosphate and cytidine 5'-triphosphate were investigated as substrates for ATP(CTP):tRNA nucleotidyl transferase. Eight out of 26 ATP analogues and six out of nine CTP analogues were incorporated into the 3' terminus of tRNA. In general, for the recognition of the substrates the modification of the cytidine is less critical than is the modification of adenosine. An isosteric substitution on the ribose residue is possible in both CTP and ATP. The free hydroxyls of these triphosphates can be replaced by an amino group or hydrogen atom without loss of substrate properties. Modifications of positions 1, 2, 6, and 8 on the adenine ring of ATP are not allowed whereas modification on positions 2, 4 and 5 on the cytosine ring of CTP are tolerated by the enzyme. No differences can be observed in the substrate properties of ATP(CTP):tRNA nucleotidyl transferase isolated from different sources. Methods for preparation of tRNA species, which are shortened at their 3' end by one or more nucleotides, and analytical procedures for characterisation of these modified tRNAs are described. 相似文献

Nucleoside analogues are chemical means to investigate hydrogen bonds, base stacking, and solvation as the three predominant forces that are responsible for the stability of secondary structure of nucleic acids. To obtain deeper insight into the contributions of these interactions to RNA stability apart from the ones exerted by the predominant nucleosides we decided to synthesize some novel nucleic acid analogues where the nucleobases are replaced by fluoroindoles. Fluorinated indoles can be compared to fluorinated benzimidazoles to determine the role of nitrogen in five membered ring system. The synthesis of fluoroindole ribonucleosides is described here. 相似文献

Structural and stereospecific requirements for the nucleoside-triggered germination of Bacillus cereus spores 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

A selection of adenosine analogues was tested for their ability to trigger germination of Bacillus cereus NCIB 8122 spores. The germination-inducing activity was governed by the structural properties of the sugar rather than the base moieties of the nucleosides. Among the sugar-modified analogues, only those containing a 2'-deoxy-D-ribose moiety promoted spore germination. Requirements for a specific molecular structure of the base were not clearly identified, although the highest activity was observed when substituents were inserted at position 6 of the purine ring. All the base-modified analogues, even those such as coformycin and 2'-deoxycoformycin with an expanded base ring, retained the germination-inducing activity of adenosine. However, of the two 2'-deoxycoformycin diastereoisomers characterized by an asymmetric carbon atom at position 8 of the homopurine ring, only the 8S-isomer induced germination, thus indicating that stereospecific configuration of the inducer, at least in the case of 2'-deoxycoformycin, appears to be essential for the initiation of spore germination. The differences in the germination-inducing activity of the various analogues tested were not affected significantly by spore activation at different temperatures, although the higher the activation temperature, the lower was the concentration of each analogue required for maximum germination. 相似文献

Fluorescence titration measurements have been used to examine the binding interaction of a number of analogues of the bis -benzimidazole DNA minor groove binding agent Hoechst 33258 with the decamer duplex d(GCAAATTTGC)2. The method of continuous variation in ligand concentration (Job plot analysis) reveals a 1:1 binding stoichiometry for all four analogues; binding constants are independent of drug concentration (in the range [ligand] = 0.1-5 microM). The four analogues studied were chosen in order to gain some insight into the relative importance of a number of key structural features for minor groove recognition, namely (i) steric bulk of the N -methylpiperazine ring, (ii) ligand hydrophobicity, (iii) isohelicity with the DNA minor groove and (iv) net ligand charge. This was achieved, first, by replacing the bulky, non-planar N -methylpiperazine ring with a less bulky planar charged imidazole ring permitting binding to a narrower groove, secondly, by linking the N -methylpiperazine ring to the phenyl end of the molecule to give the molecule a more linear, less isohelical conformation and, finally, by introducing a charged imidazole ring in place of the phenolic OH making it dicationic, enabling the contribution of the additional electrostatic interaction and extended conformation to be assessed. Delta G values were measured at 20 degrees C in the range -47.6 to -37.5 kJ mol-1 and at a number of pH values between 5.0 and 7.2. We find a very poor correlation between Delta G values determined by fluorescence titration and effects of ligand binding on DNA melting temperatures, concluding that isothermal titration methods provide the most reliable method of determining binding affinities. Our results indicate that the bulky N -methylpiperazine ring imparts a large favourable binding interaction, despite its apparent requirement for a wider minor groove, which others have suggested arises in a large part from the hydrophobic effect. The binding constant appears to be insensitive to the isohelical arrangement of the constituent rings which in these analogues gives the same register of hydrogen bonding interactions with the floor of the groove. 相似文献

Thrombomodulin induction in cultured human endothelial cells by 9-cis-locked retinoic acid analogues
Ikegami S Iimori T Sudo M Kitsukawa M Foroumadi A Yonemura T Takahashi H Kizaki K Ishii H 《Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry》2006,14(15):5099-5109
9-cis-Retinoic acid (RA) analogues devised to lock the 9-cis double bond by ring formation were synthesized using two stereoselective carbon-carbon bond formation reactions as key steps. The palladium-mediated Suzuki reaction was adopted to construct a 7E-double bond (RA numbering) and the Horner-Emmons olefination was employed for stereoselective 11E-double bond (RA numbering) formation. The synthesized 9-cis-RA analogues that are locked by five-membered ring systems (cyclopentene, dihydrofuran, and dihydrothiophene) were shown to have comparable thrombomodulin induction activities to that of 9-cis RA. Conformational analysis of these compounds showed their similarity to 9-cis RA in the spatial orientation of the side chain and the terminal carboxy group. 相似文献
