In the current study, two cyclic tripeptides respectively harboring a thiourea-type and a carboxamide-type of catalytic mechanism-based sirtuin inhibitory warheads as the central residue were found to behave as potent (low μM level) inhibitors against the tRNA-activated human SIRT7 deacetylase activity. Despite exhibiting a potent pan-inhibition against the deacylase activities of the five tested human sirtuins (i.e. SIRT1/2/3/6/7), these two compounds represent the first examples of potent SIRT7 inhibitors ever identified thus far, and their identification could facilitate the future development of more potent and selective SIRT7 inhibitors. 相似文献

Proton-coupled oligopeptide transporters (POTs) utilize the electrochemical proton gradient to facilitate uptake of di- or tripeptide molecules. YjdL is one of four POTs found in Escherichia coli. It has shown an extraordinary preference for di- rather than tripeptides, and is therefore significantly different from prototypical POTs such as the human hPepT1. Nonetheless YjdL contains several highly conserved POT residues, which include Glu388 that is located in the putative substrate binding cavity. Here we present biophysical characterization of WT-YjdL and Glu388Gln. Isothermal titration calorimetrical studies exhibit a Kd of 14 μM for binding of Ala-Lys to WT-YjdL. Expectedly, no binding could be detected for the tripeptide Ala-Ala-Lys. Surprisingly however, binding could not be detected for Ala-Gln, although earlier studies indicated inhibitory potencies of Ala-Gln to be comparable to Ala-Lys (IC50 values of 0.6 compared to 0.3 mM). Finally, Ala-Lys binding to Glu388Gln was also undetectable which may support a previously suggested role in interaction with the ligand peptide N-terminus. 相似文献

Fluorescent nanostructures have been widely applied to biomedical researches and clinical diagnosis such as biolabeling/imaging/sensing and have even acted as therapy reagents. Peptide‐based fluorescent nanostructures attract recent interest from biomedical researchers. Inspired by the natural existence of GHK‐Cu complex with a growth factor‐like effect in human blood, here we have developed a novel approach for designing nanosensors through the co‐assembling of two kinds of biomolecules. By making best use of both π‐π stacking between carbon rings and the easy‐oxidation property of an important transmitter molecule, dopamine (DA), we successfully built up a supersensitive and robust fluorescent pH nanosensor by co‐assembling oxidized DA (DAox) with a tripeptide GHK. The GHK‐DAox nanostructures have a quantum yield of 20.82%, which might be the brightest one among all the current co‐assembling structures merely through unmodified biomolecules. We envision this approach could open a new avenue for not only hybrid nanostructure construction, but also may inspire the bioengineering of in vivo luminescent probes. 相似文献

The mannosylated derivative of adamant‐1‐yl tripeptide (D ‐(Ad‐1‐yl)Gly‐L ‐Ala‐D ‐isoGln) was prepared to study the effects of mannosylation on adjuvant (immunostimulating) activity. Mannosylated adamant‐1‐yl tripeptide (Man‐OCH2CH(Me)CO‐D ‐(Ad‐1‐yl)Gly‐L ‐Ala‐D ‐isoGln) is a non‐pyrogenic, H2O‐soluble, and non‐toxic compound. Adjuvant activity of mannosylated adamantyl tripeptide was tested in the mouse model with ovalbumin as an antigen and in comparison to the parent tripeptide and peptidoglycan monomer (PGM, β‐D ‐GlcNAc‐(1→4)‐D ‐MurNAc‐L ‐Ala‐D ‐isoGln‐mesoDAP(εNH2)‐D ‐Ala‐D ‐Ala), a well‐known effective adjuvant. The mannosylation of adamantyl tripeptide caused the amplification of its immunostimulating activity in such a way that it was comparable to that of PGM. 相似文献

The remarkable hydrophobic effect of a fatty acid side chain on the microbial growth promoting activity of a synthetic siderophore 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
The ability of synthetic derivatives of the siderophore tripeptide of N
5-hydroxy-N
5-acetyl-l-ornithine to promote the growth of various strains of mycobacteria and Gram negative bacteria was found to depend significantly on the hydrophobic nature of the derivative. Although the tripeptide of N
5-hydroxy-N
5-acetyl-l-ornithine is not normally utilized by mycobacteria, an N-terminal palmitoyl derivative mimicked natural mycobactin J in all studies. 相似文献

Aminopeptidase N (APN/CD13) is one of the essential proteins for tumour invasion, angiogenesis and metastasis as it is over-expressed on the surface of different tumour cells. Based on our previous work that L-isoserine dipeptide derivatives were potent APN inhibitors, we designed and synthesized L-isoserine tripeptide derivatives as APN inhibitors. Among these compounds, one compound 16l (IC50?=?2.51?±?0.2 µM) showed similar inhibitory effect compared with control compound Bestatin (IC50?=?6.25?±?0.4 µM) and it could be used as novel lead compound for the APN inhibitors development as anticancer agents in the future. 相似文献

Six tripeptides incorporating acidic amino acid residues were prepared for investigation as activators of β- and γ-carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) from the pathogenic bacteria Vibrio cholerae, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and Burkholderia pseudomallei. The primary amino acid residues that are involved in the catalytic mechanisms of these CA classes are poorly understood, although glutamic acid residues near the active site appear to be involved. The tripeptides that contain Glu or Asp residues can effectively activate VchCAβ and VchCAγ (enzymes from V. cholerae), Rv3273 CA (mtCA3, a β-CA from M. tuberculosis) and BpsCAγ (γ-CA from B. pseudomallei) at 0.21–18.1?µM levels. The position of the acidic residues in the peptide sequences can significantly affect bioactivity. For three of the enzymes, tripeptides were identified that are more effective activators than both l-Glu and l-Asp. The tripeptides are also relatively selective because they do not activate prototypical α-CAs (human carbonic anhydrases I and II). Because the role of CA activators in the pathogenicity and life cycles of these infectious bacteria are poorly understood, this study provides new molecular probes to explore such processes. 相似文献

Synthetic collagen peptides containing larger numbers of Gly‐Pro‐Hyp repeats are difficult to purify by standard chromatographic procedures. Therefore, efficient strategies are required for the synthesis of higher molecular weight collagen‐type peptides. Applying the Fmoc/tBu chemistry, a comparative analysis of the standard stepwise chain elongation procedure on solid support with the procedure based on the use of the synthons Fmoc‐Gly‐Pro‐Hyp(tBu)‐OH and Fmoc‐Pro‐Hyp‐Gly‐OH was performed. The crude products resulting from the stepwise elongation procedure and from the use of Fmoc‐Gly‐Pro‐Hyp(tBu)‐OH clearly revealed large amounts of microheterogeneities that result from incomplete imino acid acylation as well as from diketopiperazine formation with cleavage of Gly‐Pro units from the growing peptide chain. Conversely, by the use of the Fmoc‐Pro‐Hyp‐Gly‐OH synthon, the quality of the crude products was significantly improved; moreover, protection of the Hyp side chain hydroxyl function is not required using the Fmoc/tBu strategy. With this optimized synthetic procedure, relatively large collagen‐type peptides were obtained in satisfactory yields as highly homogeneous compounds.
