-
Page/Page column 57; 59, (2010/02/07)
Multifonctional ACE inhibitor compounds are provided, that combine ACE-inhibiting activity with capability to scavenge superoxide and other reactive oxygen species, and that may further function as nitric oxide donors. The compounds are useful for preventing or treating various disorders, including cardiovascular, and diabetes associated disorders.
N-Me-pAB-Glu-γ-Glu-γ-Tyr(3-NO2): An internally quenched fluorogenic γ-glutamyl hydrolase substrate
Pankuch, Jessica J.,Coward, James K.

A γ-glutamyl tripeptide containing an internally quenched fluorophore has been synthesized and shown to be a substrate for recombinant rat γ-glutamyl hydrolase. HPLC, LC-MS, and fluorescence spectra support the conclusion that selective hydrolysis occurs

N5-Acetyl-N5-hydroxy-L-ornithine (1), the key constituent of several microbial siderophores, has been synthesized in 23percent yield overall from N-Cbz-L-glutamic acid 1-tert-butyl ester (6) derived from L-glutamic acid.Reduction of 6 to 7 and treatment with N-(trichloroethoxy)carbonyl>-O-benzylhydroxylamine (8), and diethyl azodicarboxylate and triphenylphosphine followed by deprotection produced the protected N5-acetyl-N5-hydroxy-L-ornithine derivatives 11 and 12 in large quantities (10-20 g).Following α-amino and α-carboxyl deprotections of 11 and 12, EEDQ mediated peptide coupling and final deprotection provided amino acid 1 and six albomycin-like peptides (20, 23, 25, 28, 35, and 36).The growth-promoting ability of each was evaluated with the siderophore biosynthesis mutant Shigella flexneri SA240 (SA 100 iucD:Tn5).These results indicate that substantial modification of the framework of peptide-based siderophores can be tolerated by microbial iron-transport systems.
