Genome mining for novel Fe(II)/α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases (αKGDs) to expand the enzymatic repertoire in the oxidation of l-proline is reported. Through clustering of proteins, we predicted regio- and stereoselectivity in the hydroxylation reaction and validated this hypothesis experimentally. Two novel byproducts in the reactions with enzymes from Bacillus cereus and Streptomyces sp. were isolated, and the structures were determined to be a 3,4-epoxide and a 3,4-diol, respectively. The mechanism for the formation of the epoxide was investigated by performing an 18O-labeling experiment. We propose that the mechanism proceeds via initial cis-3-hydroxylation followed by ring closure. A biocatalytic step was run on subgram quantities of starting material without any significant optimization of the conditions. However, the substrate concentration was 40-fold higher than the usual reported titers for recombinant P450-mediated hydroxylations, showing the synthetic potential of αKGDs on a preparative scale.

Page/Page column 27, (2016/02/03)
The present invention relates to assays for monitoring activity of OGFOD1 activity, in particular, to assays for identifying modulators of OGFOD1 activity. The invention also relates to assays to monitor the prolyl hydroxylase activity of OGFOD1 on its substrate, the human ribosomal protein RPS23. The invention also enables the introduction of 3-hydroxyprolyl residues into peptides and proteins.
Pyrrolidino DNA with bases corresponding to the 2-oxo deletion mutants of thymine and cytosine: Synthesis and triplex-forming properties

The dual recognition properties of pyrrolidino DNA species as parallel triplex-forming oligonucleotides were previously found to be strongly dependent upon the nature of the pyrimidine bases. In the structure-activity study presented here we were able to

Fmoc protected 5,5 and 6,5-bicyclic ketones 12 and 13 were prepared through the corresponding diazomethylketone intermediates via a lithium chloride/acetic acid promoted carbene insertion reaction. Building blocks 12 and 13 were used in the solid phase synthesis of peptidomimetic inhibitors of a range of CAC1 cysteinyl proteinases. Compound 10, a potent and selective inhibitor of cathepsin K exhibited promising activity in an in vitro cell-based human osteoclast assay of bone resorption. A stereoselective synthesis of (3aS,6aR)-tetrahydrofuro[3,2-b]pyrrol-3-ones and (3aS,7aR)-hexahydrofuro[3,2-b] pyridine-3-ones has been developed through Fmoc protected scaffolds 12 and 13. A key design element within these novel bicyclic scaffolds, in particular the 5,5-fused system, was the inherent stability of the cis-fused geometry in comparison to that of the corresponding trans-fused. Since the bridgehead stereocentre situated α to the ketone was of a fixed and stable configuration, the fact that cis ring fusion is both kinetically and thermodynamically stable with respect to trans ring fusion provides chiral stability to the bridgehead stereocentre that is situated β to the ketone. To exemplify this principle, building blocks 12 and 13 were designed, prepared and utilised in a solid phase combinatorial synthesis of peptidomimetic inhibitors 10, 45a-e, 11 and 46. Both series were chirally stable with 5,5-series 10 and 45a-e exhibiting potent in vitro activity against a range of CAC1 cysteinyl proteinases. Compound 10, a potent and selective inhibitor of cathepsin K, possessed good primary DMPK properties along with promising activity in an in vitro cell-based human osteoclast assay of bone resorption.

[figure: see text] A novel method for the synthesis of pyrrolidine C-nucleosides has been developed. The key step of the synthesis is the palladium(0)-mediated coupling of a disubstituted N-protected 2-pyrroline and 5-iodouracil. C-Nucleoside 14 and its N
