A series of indazole derivatives were identified as Sirt 1 activators though high-throughput screening. Optimization of each substituent on the indazole ring led to the identification of compound 13. Compound 13 appeared to give the best Sirt 1 activity of the compounds tested and also showed osteogenesis activity in a cell assay. Sirt 1 activators are therefore potential candidates for the treatment of osteoporosis. 相似文献

A chip-based biosensor technology using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) was developed for studying the interaction of ligands and G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). GPCRs, the fourth largest superfamily in the human genome, are the largest class of targets for drug discovery.We have expressed the three subtypes of α2-adrenergic receptor (α2-AR), a prototypical GPCR as functional fusion proteins in baculovirus-infected insect cells. The localization of the expressed receptor was observed in intracellular organelles, as detected by eGFP fluorescence. In addition, the deletion mutants of α2B-AR, with a deletion in the 3rd intracellular loop, exhibited unaltered Kd values and enhanced stability, thus making them more promising candidates for crystallization. SPR demonstrated that small molecule ligands can bind the detergent-solubilized receptor, thus proving that α2-AR is active even in a lipid-free environment. The Kd values obtained from the biosensor analysis and traditional ligand binding studies correlate well with each other. This is the first demonstration of the binding of a small molecule to the detergent-solubilized state of α2-ARs and interaction of low-molecular mass-ligands in real time in a label-free environment. This technology will also allow the development of high throughput platform for screening a large number of compounds for generation of leads. 相似文献

Dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP) IV inhibitors provide a new strategy for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Human DPP-IV gene was
cloned from differentiated Caco-2 cells and expressed in Pichia pastoris. The recombinant enzyme was used in a new system for screening of DPP-IV inhibitors. By high throughput screening, a novel
compound (W5188) was identified from 75,000 compounds with an IC50 of 6.5 μM. This method is highly reproducible and reliable for discovery of DPP-IV inhibitors as shown by Z′ value of 0.73
and S/N ratio of 6.89. 相似文献

Pin1, a peptidyl prolyl cis/trans isomerase (PPIase), is a potential target molecule for cancer, infectious disease, and Alzheimer’s disease. We established a high-throughput screening method for Pin1 inhibitors, which employs a real-time fluorescence detector. This screening method identified 66 compounds that inhibit Pin1 out of 9756 compounds from structurally diverse chemical libraries. Further evaluations of surface plasmon resonance methods and a cell proliferation assay were performed. We discovered a cell-active inhibitor, TME-001 (2-(3-chloro-4-fluoro-phenyl)-isothiazol-3-one). Surprisingly, kinetic analyses revealed that TME-001 is the first compound that exhibits dual inhibition of Pin1 (IC50 = 6.1 μM) and cyclophilin, another type of PPIase, (IC50 = 13.7 μM). This compound does not inhibit FKBP. This finding suggests the existence of similarities of structure and reaction mechanism between Pin1 and cyclophilin, and may lead to a more complete understanding of the active sites of PPIases. 相似文献

Aims: To establish a highly efficient methodology for screening high yield strains of cytotoxic deacetylmycoepoxydiene (DAM), to meet the need of research on its mechanism of anti‐tumor properties and in vivo toxicity studies. Methods and Results: A simple, sensitive, and highly repetitive screening procedure ‘Antimicrobial‐TLC–HPLC’ (ATH) was established for the rapid obtaining of high‐yielding DAM mutants to replace the time and labor intensive anti‐tumor activity assay (MTT). With this ATH method, four highly yielding DAM mutants were selected out of 5000 total mutants, one of which, M4‐143, showed yields of more than 300 times (250·3 mg l?1) that of the parent strain A123. Conclusions: The ATH method developed in this work has proven to be both economical and highly efficient with the screening of 1200 mutants in a one week time period, thusly shortening the expenditure of time and labor, without missing a single high‐yield mutant. Due to these characteristics, it is superior to other HTS screening methods described in earlier literature. The mutant M4‐143 has a good genetic stability and can be used for further research. Significance and Impact of the Study: This ATH screening method is not only perfect for screening high‐yield DAM mutants, but also, it is suitable to screen the strain libraries for those strains that have the ability to produce natural metabolites with antitumor activity. 相似文献

Ion channels control the electrical properties of neurons and other excitable cell types by selectively allowing ions to flow through the plasma membrane1. To regulate neuronal excitability, the biophysical properties of ion channels are modified by signaling proteins and molecules, which often bind to the channels themselves to form a heteromeric channel complex2,3. Traditional assays examining the interaction between channels and regulatory proteins require exogenous labels that can potentially alter the protein''s behavior and decrease the physiological relevance of the target, while providing little information on the time course of interactions in living cells. Optical biosensors, such as the X-BODY Biosciences BIND Scanner system, use a novel label-free technology, resonance wavelength grating (RWG) optical biosensors, to detect changes in resonant reflected light near the biosensor. This assay allows the detection of the relative change in mass within the bottom portion of living cells adherent to the biosensor surface resulting from ligand induced changes in cell adhesion and spreading, toxicity, proliferation, and changes in protein-protein interactions near the plasma membrane. RWG optical biosensors have been used to detect changes in mass near the plasma membrane of cells following activation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), receptor tyrosine kinases, and other cell surface receptors. Ligand-induced changes in ion channel-protein interactions can also be studied using this assay. In this paper, we will describe the experimental procedure used to detect the modulation of Slack-B sodium-activated potassium (KNa) channels by GPCRs. 相似文献

Glycosyltransferases (GTs) are crucial enzymes in the biosynthesis and diversification of therapeutically important natural products, and the majority of them belong to the GT-B superfamily, which is composed of separate N- and C-domains that are responsible for the recognition of the sugar acceptor and donor, respectively. In an effort to expand the substrate specificity of GT, a chimeric library with different crossover points was constructed between the N-terminal fragments of kanamycin GT (kanF) and the C-terminal fragments of vancomycin GT (gtfE) genes by incremental truncation method. A plate-based pH color assay was newly developed for the selection of functional domain-swapped GTs, and a mutant (HMT31) with a crossover point (N-kanF-669 bp and 753 bp-gtfE-C) for domain swapping was screened. The most active mutant HMT31 (50 kDa) efficiently catalyzed 2-DOS (aglycone substrate for KanF) glucosylation using dTDP-glucose (glycone substrate for GtfE) with k(cat)/K(m) of 162.8 +/- 0.1 mM(-1) min(-1). Moreover, HMT31 showed improved substrate specificity toward seven more NDP-sugars. This study presents a domain swapping method as a potential means to glycorandomization toward various syntheses of 2-DOS-based aminoglycoside derivatives. 相似文献
