Nicotinic and isonicotinic thiosemicarbazide or hydrazine carbothioamides 3–27 were synthesized and the structures of synthetic compounds were elucidated by various spectroscopic techniques such as EI-MS, 1H-, and 13C NMR. Synthetic derivatives were evaluated for their urease inhibitory activity which revealed that except few all derivatives demonstrated excellent inhibition in the range of IC50 values of 1.21–51.42 μM as compared to the standard thiourea (IC50 = 21.25 ± 0.13 μM). Among the twenty-five synthetic derivatives nineteen 1–5, 7, 8, 10, 12, 14–18, 20–22, 24–27 were found to be more active showing IC50 values between 1.13 and 19.74 μM showing superior activity than the standard. Limited structure-activity relationship demonstrated that the positions of substituent as well as position of nitrogen in pyridine ring are very important for inhibitory activity of this class of compound. To verify these interpretations, in silico study was also performed. A good correlation was obtained between the biological evaluation of active compounds and docking study. 相似文献

Human topoisomerase I inhibition: docking camptothecin and derivatives into a structure-based active site model 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Human topoisomerase I (top1) is an important target for anti-cancer drugs, which include camptothecin (CPT) and its derivatives. To elucidate top1 inhibition in vitro, we made a series of duplex DNA substrates containing a deoxyadenosine stereospecifically modified by a covalent adduct of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) diol epoxide [Pommier, Y., et al. (2000) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 97, 10739-10744]. The known orientation of the hydrocarbon adduct in the DNA duplex relative to the top1 cleavage site, in combination with a top1/DNA crystal structure [Redinbo, M. R., et al. (1998) Science 279, 1504-1513], was used to construct a structure-based model to explain the in vitro top1 inhibition results obtained with adducted DNA duplexes. Here we experimentally determined that the lactone form of CPT was stabilized by an irreversible top1/DNA covalent complex. We removed the BaP moiety from the DNA in the published model, and docked the lactone forms of CPT and derivatives into the top1/DNA active site cavity. The docked ligands were minimized, and interaction energy scores between the ligands and the top1/DNA complex were determined. CPT docks perpendicular to the DNA backbone, projects outward from the major groove, and makes a network of potential H-bonds with the active site DNA and top1 residues, including Arg364, Lys532, and Asn722. The results are consistent with the known structure-activity relationships of CPT and derivatives. In addition, the model proposed a novel top1/N352A "resistance" mutation for 10-OH derivatives of CPT. The in vitro biochemical characterization of the top1/N352A mutant supported the model. 相似文献

Tyrosinase plays a central role in biological pigment formation, and hence knowledge of tyrosinase catalytic mechanisms and regulation may have medical, cosmetic, and agricultural applications. We found in this study that arabinose significantly inhibited tyrosinase, and this was accompanied by conformational changes in enzyme structure. Kinetic analysis showed that arabinose-mediated inactivation followed first-order kinetics, and single and multiple classes of rate constants were measured. Arabinose displayed a mixed-type inhibitory mechanism with K(i)=0.22±0.07 mM. Measurements of intrinsic and ANS-binding fluorescence showed that arabinose induced tyrosinase to unfold and expose inner hydrophobic regions. We simulated the docking between tyrosinase and arabinose (binding energies were -26.28 kcal/mol for Dock6.3 and -2.02 kcal/mol for AutoDock4.2) and results suggested that arabinose interacts mostly with His61, Asn260, and Met280. The present strategy of predicting tyrosinase inhibition by simulation of docking by hydroxyl groups may prove useful in screening for potential tyrosinase inhibitors, as shown here for arabinose. 相似文献

The alpha isoform of the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinases (PI3Kα) is often mutated, amplified and overexpressed in human tumors. In an effort to develop new inhibitors targeting this enzyme, we carried out a pharmacophore model study based on six PI3Kα-selective compounds. The pharmacophore searching identified three structurally novel inhibitors of PI3Kα and its H1047R mutant. Our biological studies show that two of our hit molecules suppressed the formation of pAKT, a downstream effector of PI3Kα, and induced apoptosis in the HCT116 colon cancer cell line. QPLD-based docking showed that residues Asp933, Glu849, Val851, and Gln859 appeared to be key binding residues for active inhibitors. 相似文献

Topoisomerase inhibition is an extremely useful target for anticancer and antimicrobial drugs, and an undesirable side effect of some drugs targeting other proteins. Published modelling studies are sparse, and have used small data sets with relatively low molecular diversity. Given the important role of minor groove binding in the mechanism of topoisomerase I inhibition, we have conducted the first 3D QSAR study of topoisomerase I inhibition of a large, diverse set of minor groove binders using the minor groove binding conformation as the alignment template. The highly significant QSAR models resulting from this alignment identify the roles played by molecular features, most importantly the hydrogen bond donor properties. 相似文献

3D-QSAR studies of Dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitors using a docking based alignment 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) deactivates the incretin hormones GLP-1 and GIP by cleaving the penultimate proline or alanine
from the N-terminal (P1-position) of the peptide. Inhibition of this enzyme will prevent the degradation of the incretin hormones
and maintain glucose homeostasis; this makes it an attractive target for the development of drugs for diabetes. This paper
reports 3D-QSAR analysis of several DPP-IV inhibitors, which were aligned by the receptor-based technique. The conformation
of the molecules in the active site was obtained through docking methods. The QSAR models were generated on two training sets
composed of 74 and 25 molecules which included phenylalanine, thiazolidine, and fluorinated pyrrolidine analogs. The 3D-QSAR
models are robust with statistically significant r2, q2, and values. The CoMFA and CoMSIA models were used to design some new inhibitors with several fold higher binding affinity.

Cytosolic (TrxR1) and mitochondrial (TrxR2) thioredoxin reductases experience pronounced concentration- and time-dependent inhibition when incubated with the two naphthodianthrones hypericin and pseudohypericin. Pseudohypericin turned out to be a quite strong inhibitor of TrxR1 (IC50 = 4.40 ??M) being far more effective than hypericin (IC50 = 157.08 ??M). In turn, the IC50 values measured toward TrxR2 were 7.45 ??M for pseudohypericin and 43.12 ??M for hypericin. When compared to pseudohypericin, the inhibition caused by hypericin usually required significantly longer times, in particular on TrxR1. These important differences in the inhibitory potencies and profiles were analysed through a molecular modeling approach. Notably, both compounds were found to accommodate in the NADPH-binding pocket of the enzyme. The binding of the two naphthodianthrones to thioredoxin reductase seems to be particularly strong as the inhibitory effects were fully retained after gel filtration. Also, we found that TrxR inhibition by hypericin and pseudohypericin does not involve the active site selenol/thiol motif as confirmed by biochemical and modeling studies. The resulting inhibition pattern is very similar to that produced by the two naphthodianthrones on glutathione reductase. As the thioredoxin system is highly overexpressed in cancer cells, its inhibition by hypericin and pseudohypericin, natural compounds showing appreciable anticancer properties, might offer new clues on their mechanism of action and open interesting perspectives for future tumor therapies. 相似文献

Nucleoside analogs such as 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl cytidine (AraC) and 2',2'-difluoro deoxycytidine (dFdC) are important components of the anticancer chemotherapeutic arsenal and are among the most effective anticancer drugs currently available. Although both AraCTP and dFdCTP impede DNA replication through pausing of DNA polymerases, both nucleoside analogs are ultimately incorporated into replicated DNA and interfere in DNA-mediated processes. Our laboratories are investigating the structural basis for the poisoning of topoisomerase I (top1) due to antipyrimidine incorporation into duplex DNA. We recently reported that both AraC and dFdC induce formation of top1 cleavage complexes, and poisoning of top1 contributes to the anticancer activities of both these drugs. Recent NMR and thermodynamic studies from our laboratories provide insight into the mechanism by which AraC and dFdC poison top1. NMR studies from our laboratories have revealed that the arabinosyl sugar of AraC adopted a C2'-endo conformation. Although this is a B-type sugar pucker characteristic of duplex DNA, the conformation is rigid, and this lack of flexibility probably contributes to inhibition of the religation step of the top1 reaction. In contrast to AraC, NMR studies revealed dFdC adopted a C3' endo sugar pucker characteristic of RNA, rather than DNA duplexes. dFdC substitution enhanced formation of top1 cleavage complexes, but did not inhibit religation. The enhancement of top1 cleavage complexes most likely results from a combination of conformational and electrostatic effects. The structural effects of dFdC and AraC are being further investigated in duplex DNA with well-defined top1 cleavage sites to analyze more specifically how these structural perturbations lead to enzyme poisoning. 相似文献

We investigated twelve benzyl phenyl ketone derivatives which are synthetic precursors of isoflavonoids that are shown be good 5-hLOX inhibitors, especially those that have the catechol group, but these precursors never have been assayed as 5-hLOX inhibitors being a novelty as inhibitors of the enzyme, due to sharing important structural characteristics. Screening assays, half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) and kinetic assays of all the studied molecules (5 µg/ml in media assay) showed that 1-(2,4-dihydroxy-3-methylphenyl)-2-(3-chlorophenyl)-ethanone (K205; IC50 = 3.5 µM; Ki = 4.8 µM) and 1-(2,4-dihydroxy-3-methylphenyl)-2-(2-nitrophenyl)-ethanone (K206; IC50 = 2.3 µM; Ki = 0.7 µM) were potent, selective, competitive and nonredox inhibitors of 5-hLOX. Antioxidant behavior was also assayed by DPPH, FRAP, and assessing ROS production, and those with antibacterial and antiproliferative properties relating to 1-(2,4-dihydroxy-3-methylphenyl)-2-(2-chlorophenyl)-ethanone (K208) established it as the most interesting and relevant compound studied, as it showed nearly 100% inhibition of bacterial growth of Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Finally, docking studies were done that helped to characterize how the inhibitor structures correlated to decreased 5-hLOX activity. 相似文献

Human kallikrein 5 and 7 (KLK5 and KLK7) are trypsin-like and chymotrypsin-like serine proteases, respectively, and promising targets for the treatment of skin desquamation, inflammation and cancer. In an effort to develop new inhibitors for these enzymes, we carried out enzymatic inhibition assays and docking studies with three isocoumarin compounds. Some promising inhibitors were uncovered, with vioxanthin and 8,8'-paepalantine being the most potent competitive inhibitors of KLK5 (K(i)=22.9 μM) and KLK7 (K(i)=12.2 μM), respectively. Our docking studies showed a good correlation with the experimental results, and revealed a distinct binding mode for the inhibitors at the binding sites of KLK5 and KLK7. In addition, the docking results suggested that the formation of hydrogen bonds at the oxyanion hole is essential for a good inhibitor. 相似文献

We have previously shown that heparin is a potent inhibitor of a mammalian DNA topoisomerase I. We have now investigated the mechanism of its inhibition. This was carried out first by scrutinizing the structural features of heparin molecules responsible for the inhibition. Commercial heparin preparation was fractionated by antithrombin III-Sepharose into non-adsorbed, low-affinity and high-affinity fractions, of which only the high-affinity fraction of heparin is known to contain a specific oligosaccharide sequence responsible for the binding to antithrombin III. These fractions all exhibited essentially similar inhibitory activities. Furthermore, when chemically sulphated to an extent comparable with or higher than heparin, otherwise inactive glycosaminoglycans such as heparan sulphate, chondroitin 4-sulphate, dermatan sulphate and neutral polysaccharides such as dextran and amylose were converted into potent inhibitors. Sulphated dermatan sulphate, one of the model compounds, was further shown to bind competitively to the same sites on the enzyme as heparin. These observations strongly suggested that topoisomerase inhibition by heparin is attributable primarily, if not entirely, to the highly sulphated polyanionic nature of the molecules. In a second series of experiments we examined whether heparin inhibits only one or both of the topoisomerase reactions, i.e. nicking and re-joining. It was demonstrated that both reactions were inhibited by heparin, but the nicking reaction was more severely affected than was the re-joining reaction. 相似文献

Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) is necessary for production of the precursor deoxyribonucleotides for DNA synthesis. Class Ia RNR functions via a stable free radical in one of the two components protein R2. The enzyme mechanism involves long range (proton coupled) electron transfer between protein R1 and the tyrosyl radical in protein R2. Earlier experimental studies showed that p-alkoxyphenols inhibit RNR. Here, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations involving protein R2 suggest an inhibition mechanism for p-alkoxyphenols . A low energy binding pocket is identified in protein R2. The preferred configuration provides a structural basis explaining their specific binding to the Escherichia coli and mouse R2 proteins. Trp48 (E. coli numbering), on the electron transfer pathway, is involved in the interactions with the inhibitors. The relative order of the binding energies calculated for the phenol derivatives to protein R2 is correlated with earlier experimental data on inhibition efficiency, in turn related to increasing size of the hydrophobic alkyl substituents. Using the configuration identified by molecular docking as a starting point for molecular dynamics simulations, we find that the p-allyloxyphenol interrupts the catalytic electron transfer pathway of the R2 protein by forming hydrogen bonds with Trp48 and Asp237, thus explaining the inhibitory activity of p-alkoxyphenols. 相似文献

Sixteen 4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives were synthesized, characterized through EI-MS and 1H NMR and screened for urease inhibitory potential. Three compounds exhibited better urease inhibition than the standard inhibitor thiourea (IC50 = 21 ± 0.11 μM) while other four compounds exhibited good to moderate inhibition with IC50 values between 29.45 ± 1.1 μM and 69.53 ± 0.9 μM. Structure activity relationship was established on the basis of molecular docking studies, which helped to predict the binding interactions of the most active compounds. 相似文献

Forty anthraquinone derivatives have been downloaded from PubChem database and investigated in a quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) study. The models describing log P and LD50 of this set were built up on the hypermolecule scheme that mimics the investigated receptor space; the models were validated by the leave-one-out procedure, in the external test set and in a new version of prediction by using similarity clusters. Molecular docking approach using Lamarckian Genetic Algorithm was made on this class of anthraquinones with respect to 3Q3B receptor. The best scored molecules in the docking assay were used as leaders in the similarity clustering procedure. It is demonstrated that the LD50 data of this set of anthraquinones are related to the binding energies of anthraquinone ligands to the 3Q3B receptor. 相似文献

Curcumin is a multi-functional pharmacologically safe natural agent with proven cytoprotective effects to healthy human cells. In this study, a new series of sulfonamides with curcumin scaffold were synthesized, characterized and investigated for their carbonic anhydrase isoenzyme I (human) and II (bovine) isoforms. The structures of newly synthesized compounds were described by IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectral data. Compound 14 showed the Ki value of 0.99 µM with highest inhibitory activity among all other synthesized compounds against hCA-I enzyme. Similarly enzyme kinetic studies of compound 14, 16 and 30 against bCAII enzyme showed Ki values of 0.71, 0.67 and 0.71 µM respectively. Our biological assays results showed that most of active compounds have similar inhibitory activities compared to standard acetazolamide drug. The molecular docking predicted binding modes showed that these compounds bind with hCA-1 enzyme in similar fashion. 相似文献

Two novel series of N-2,3-bis(6-substituted-4-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinolin-3-yl)naphthalene-1,4-diones 3a-d and substituted N-(methyl/ethyl)bisquinolinone triethyl-ammonium salts 4e,f were successfully synthesized. The synthesized compounds were targeted as new candidates to extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2) with considerable antineoplastic activity. The synthesis involved the reactions of 2 equivalents of 4-hydroxy-2(1H)-quinolinones 1a-f and one equivalent of 1,4-naphthoquinone (2) in a mixture of ethanol/dimethylformamide (1:1) as a solvent and 0.5 mL Et3N. In the reaction of 6-methyl-4-hydroxyquinolone 1b with 2, a side product 4b of the second series was obtained. In general, the presence of free NH-quinolone gave a single compound of the first series, whereas reaction of N-methyl/ethyl-quinolones 1e,f with 2 enhanced the formation of compounds of the second series. The structures of the new compounds were proved by different spectroscopic techniques such as IR, NMR (2D-NMR) and mass spectra, elemental analysis, and X-ray crystallography. To further elucidate the mechanism of action of these newly synthesized compounds, compounds 3a, 3b, 4e and 4f were selected to investigate for their MAP Kinases pathway inhibition together with molecular docking using ATP-binding site of ERK2. The results revealed that compounds 3a, 3b and 4f inhibited ETS-1 phosphorylation by ERK2 in a dose dependent manner. Also, compound 4f showed highest potency for ERK2 inhibition with ATP-competitive inhibition mechanism which was confirmed by the formation of three hydrogen bond in the molecular docking studies. The synthesized compounds were then tested for their in vitro anticancer activity against the NCI-60 panel of tumor cell lines. Interestingly, the selected compounds displayed from modest to strong cytotoxic activities. Compound 3b demonstrated broad spectrum anti-tumor activity against the nine tumor sub-panels tested, while compound 3d proved to be lethal to most of the cancer cell lines as shown by their promising GI50 and TGI values in NCI in vitro five dose testing. These results revealed that the synthesized compounds can potentially serve as leads for the development of novel chemotherapeutic agents and structure improvement will be necessary for some derivatives for enhancing their cellular activities and pharmacokinetic profile. 相似文献

A type-II topoisomerase (Topo-IV) encoded by the parC and parE genes in Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium is thought to be involvd in cell septation and in the decatenation of newly replicated chromosomes. We have identified parC and parE homologs in the pleomorphic, wall-less organism Mycoplasma genitalium. Since the mechanics of cell septation in conventional eubacterial species is believed to be mediated by cell-wall constituents, there is no clear understanding of what coordinates that process in wall-less species. The presence of par genes in this bacterium, which has the smallest genome of any free-living organism, suggests that Top-IV has been evolutionarily conserved because of an essential role in mediating cell division. 相似文献
