Phosphate and amino acid prodrugs of the HIV-1 protease inhibitor (PI) atazanavir (1) were prepared and evaluated to address solubility and absorption limitations. While the phosphate prodrug failed to release 1 in rats, the introduction of a methylene spacer facilitated prodrug activation, but parent exposure was lower than that following direct administration of 1. Val amino acid and Val-Val dipeptides imparted low plasma exposure of the parent, although the exposure of the prodrugs was high, reflecting good absorption. Screening of additional amino acids resulted in the identification of an l-Phe ester that offered an improved exposure of 1 and reduced levels of the circulating prodrug. Further molecular editing focusing on the linker design culminated in the discovery of the self-immolative l-Phe-Sar dipeptide derivative 74 that gave four-fold improved AUC and eight-fold higher Ctrough values of 1 compared with oral administration of the drug itself, demonstrating a successful prodrug approach to the oral delivery of 1.

A series of analogues of cyclo(l-tyrosyl-l-tyrosine), the substrate of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis enzyme CYP121, have been synthesized and analyzed by UV-vis and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy and by X-ray crystallography. The introduction of iodine substituents onto cyclo(l-tyrosyl-l-tyrosine) results in sub-μM binding affinity for the CYP121 enzyme and a complete shift to the high-spin state of the heme FeIII. The introduction of halogens that are able to interact with heme groups is thus a feasible approach to the development of next-generation, tight binding inhibitors of the CYP121 enzyme, in the search for novel antitubercular compounds.
ANTIBACTERIALS AND/OR MODULATORS OF BIOFILM FORMATION AND METHODS OF USING THE SAME
-
Paragraph 0117, (2017/04/11)
Amides substituted with aromatic groups were synthesized and some were purified to create enantiomer pure compounds. The compounds were tested to determine their ability to inhibit the growth of bacteria and the formation of biofilms created by bacteria. Some of these compounds were found to be effective antibacterials and to effectively inhibit the formation of biofilms.
