- Fast and Tight Boronate Formation for Click Bioorthogonal Conjugation
-
A new click bioorthogonal reaction system was devised to enable the fast ligation (kON≈340 m-1 s-1) of conjugatable derivatives of a rigid cyclic diol (nopoldiol) and a carefully optimized boronic acid partner, 2-methyl-5-carboxymethylphenylboronic acid. Using NMR and fluorescence spectroscopy studies, the corresponding boronates were found to form reversibly within minutes at low micromolar concentration in water, providing submicromolar equilibrium constant (Keq≈105-106 m-1). Efficient protein conjugation under physiological conditions was demonstrated with model proteins thioredoxin and albumin, and characterized by mass spectrometry and gel electrophoresis.

- BCR-ABL TYROSINE-KINASE LIGANDS CAPABLE OF DIMERIZING IN AN AQUEOUS SOLUTION, AND METHODS OF USING SAME
-
Described herein are monomers capable of forming a biologically useful multimer when in contact with one, two, three or more other monomers in an aqueous media. In one aspect, such monomers may be capable of binding to another monomer in an aqueous media (e.g. invivo) to form a multimer (e.g. a dimer). Contemplated monomers may include a ligand moiety, a linker element, and a connector element that joins the ligand moiety and the linker element. In an aqueous media, such contemplated monomers may join together via each linker element and may thus be capable of modulating one or more biomolecules substantially simultaneously, e.g., modulate two or more binding sites on a Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase.

- BORON-CONTAINING DIACYLHYDRAZINES
-
The present disclosure provides boron-containing diacylhydrazines having Formula I: and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts and solvates thereof, wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5 are defined as set forth in the specification. The present disclosure also provides the use of boron-containing diacylhydrazines is ecdysone receptor-based inducible gene expression systems. Thus, the present disclosure is useful for applications such as gene therapy, treatment of disease, large scale production of proteins and antibodies, cell-based screening assays, functional genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and regulation of traits in transgenic organisms, where control of gene expression levels is desirable.

- Design, synthesis, and screening of a library of peptidyl bis(boroxoles) as oligosaccharide receptors in water: Identification of a receptor for the tumor marker TF-antigen disaccharide
-
Chemical Equation Presented Mini lectins: A new class of oligosaccharide receptors (see example) was designed by exploiting several modes of molecular recognition, including the unique ability of benzoboroxoles to complex hexopyranosides. The synthesis is modular, thus well suited to targeting specific oligosaccharides using combinatorial libraries.

- Practical synthesis of a p38 MAP kinase inhibitor
-
p38 MAP kinase inhibitors have attracted considerable interest as potential agents for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. Herein, we describe a concise and efficient synthesis of inhibitor 1 that is based on a phthalazine scaffold. Highlights of our approach include a practical synthesis of a 1,6-disubstituted phthalazine building block 24 as well as the one-pot formation of boronic acid 27. Significant synthetic work to understand the reactivity principles of the intermediates helped in selection of the final synthetic route. Subsequent optimization of the individual steps of the final sequence led to a practical synthesisof 1.
