The carbapenem class of β-lactams has been optimized against Gram-negative bacteria producing extended-spectrum β-lactamases by introducing substituents at position C2. Carbapenems are currently investigated for the treatment of tuberculosis as these drugs are potent covalent inhibitors of l,d-transpeptidases involved in mycobacterial cell wall assembly. The optimization of carbapenems for inactivation of these unusual targets is sought herein by exploiting the nucleophilicity of the C8 hydroxyl group to introduce chemical diversity. As β-lactams are structure analogs of peptidoglycan precursors, the substituents were chosen to increase similarity between the drug and the substrate. Fourteen peptido-carbapenems were efficiently synthesized. They were more effective than the reference drug, meropenem, owing to the positive impact of a phenethylthio substituent introduced at position C2 but the peptidomimetics added at position C8 did not further improve the activity. Thus, position C8 can be modified to modulate the pharmacokinetic properties of highly efficient carbapenems.

Many patients with multiple myeloma (MM) initially respond to treatment with modern combination regimens including immunomodulatory agents (lenalidomide and pomalidomide) and proteasome inhibitors. However, some patients lack an initial response to therapy (i.e., are refractory), and although the mean survival of MM patients has more than doubled in recent years, most patients will eventually relapse. To address this need, we explored the potential of novel cereblon E3 ligase modulators (CELMoDs) for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). We found that optimization beyond potency of degradation, including degradation efficiency and kinetics, could provide efficacy in a lenalidomide-resistant setting. Guided by both phenotypic and protein degradation data, we describe a series of CELMoDs for the treatment of RRMM, culminating in the discovery of CC-92480, a novel protein degrader and the first CELMoD to enter clinical development that was specifically designed for efficient and rapid protein degradation kinetics.

Enantioselective synthesis of α-benzylated lanthionines and related tripeptides for biological incorporation into E. coli peptidoglycan

The synthesis of modified tripeptides (S)-Ala-γ-(R)-Glu-X, where X = (R,S) or (R,R) diastereomers of α-benzyl or α-(4-azidobenzyl)lanthionine, was carried out. The chemical strategy involved the enantioselective alkylation of a 4-MeO-phenyloxazoline. The reductive opening of the alkylated oxazolines, followed by cyclization and oxidation, led to four PMB-protected sulfamidates. Subsequent PMB removal, Boc protection and regioselective opening with cysteine methyl ester led to protected lanthionines. These compounds were further converted in a one pot process to the corresponding protected tripeptides. After ester and Boc deprotection, the four tripeptides were evaluated as potential analogues of the natural tripeptide (S)-Ala-γ-(R)-Glu-meso-A2pm. These compounds were evaluated for introduction, by means of the biosynthetic recycling pathway, into the peptidoglycan of Escherichia coli. A successful in vitro biosynthesis of UDP-MurNAc-tripeptides from the tripeptides containing α-benzyl lanthionine was achieved using purified murein peptide ligase (Mpl). Bioincorporation into E. coli W7 did not occur under different tested conditions probably due to the bulky benzyl group at the Cα carbon of the C-terminal amino acid. This journal is
Isolation and structures of nostopeptolides A1, A2 and A3 from the cyanobacterium Nostoc sp. GSV224

The isolation and total structure determinations of nostopeptolides A1 (1), A2 (2) and A3 (3) are described. These cyclic depsipeptides, which are devoid of cytotoxic, antifungal and inhibition of protease activities, are characteristic constituents of the cryptophycin-producing cyanobacterium Nostoc sp. GSV224. Structure elucidation by NMR analysis was made more challenging by the existence of each nostopeptolide in three conformations. One-dimensional TOCSY experiments proved to be very useful in isolating and identifying the nine amino acid residues and the butyryl group in each compound. The absolute stereochemistries of 1-3 were determined by comparing the amino acids in the acid hydrolyzates directly with authentic standards. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
Effect of the Side Chain on the Racemization of Amino Acids in Aqueous Solution
Smith, Grant Gill,Reddy, G. Vanita
, p. 4529 - 4535 (2007/10/02)
The rate of racemization of 13 amino acids possessing hydroxy, carboxy, alkoxy, carboalkoxy, alkyl, aryl, and thioether side chains were compared.Reaction conditions were identical for all amino acids studied.Gas chromatography was used to determine the percent of D isomer present.Hydroxy amino acids racemized most rapidly, but conversion to an ether function reduced the rate considerably.The increased racemization rate of methionine (R = CH2CH2SCH3) over Ala (R = CH3) has been attributed to orbital overlap from the sulfur.Asp racemized faster than Glu, α-aminoadipic acid, and pyroglutamic acid. β- and γ-monomethyl esters of aspartic and glutamic acids, respectively, racemized only slightly faster than the corresponding free acids.The slight increase in rate appears attributable to a solvent change brought on by ester hydrolysis.Under the reaction conditions, pH 8 and 140 deg C, hydrolysis of the esters competed favorably with racemization at the methine carbon.The relatively lower racemization rate observed in the case of Glu compared with Asp resulted from the slow formation of pyroglutamic acid.Pyroglutamic acid racemized at a considerably slower rate than acidic amino acids.The differences in the racemization rates with changes in the R group are discussed in terms of several factors, including intramolecular reactions, direct field effects, orbital overlap, and solvation effects, as well as inductive, resonance, and steric factors.
