SUMOylation is a reversible post-translational modification that regulates protein function through covalent attachment of small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) proteins. The process of SUMOylating proteins involves an enzymatic cascade, the first step of which entails the activation of a SUMO protein through an ATP-dependent process catalyzed by SUMO-activating enzyme (SAE). Here, we describe the identification of TAK-981, a mechanism-based inhibitor of SAE which forms a SUMO-TAK-981 adduct as the inhibitory species within the enzyme catalytic site. Optimization of selectivity against related enzymes as well as enhancement of mean residence time of the adduct were critical to the identification of compounds with potent cellular pathway inhibition and ultimately a prolonged pharmacodynamic effect and efficacy in preclinical tumor models, culminating in the identification of the clinical molecule TAK-981.

Yanagisawa et al. analyzed the Y306A/Y384F mutant of Methanosarcina mazei pyrrolysyl-tRNA synthetase (PylRS) with 17 non-natural, bulky oxycarbonyllysine derivatives for tRNAPyl aminoacylation and site-specific incorporation into proteins. Fourteen crystal structures of the amino acid-bound PylRS mutant revealed the structural bases of the binding. This information facilitates the structure-based design of novel amino acids. Pyrrolysyl-tRNA synthetase (PylRS) and tRNAPyl have been extensively used for genetic-code expansion. A Methanosarcina mazei PylRS mutant bearing the Y306A and Y384F mutations (PylRS(Y306A/Y384F)) encodes various bulky non-natural lysine derivatives by UAG. In this study, we examined how PylRS(Y306A/Y384F) recognizes many amino acids. Among 17 non-natural lysine derivatives, N?-(benzyloxycarbonyl)lysine (ZLys) and 10 ortho/meta/para-substituted ZLys derivatives were efficiently ligated to tRNAPyl and were incorporated into proteins by PylRS(Y306A/Y384F). We determined crystal structures of 14 non-natural lysine derivatives bound to the PylRS(Y306A/Y384F) catalytic fragment. The meta- and para-substituted ZLys derivatives are snugly accommodated in the productive mode. In contrast, ZLys and the unsubstituted or ortho-substituted ZLys derivatives exhibited an alternative binding mode in addition to the productive mode. PylRS(Y306A/Y384F) displayed a high aminoacylation rate for ZLys, indicating that the double-binding mode minimally affects aminoacylation. These precise substrate recognition mechanisms by PylRS(Y306A/Y384F) may facilitate the structure-based design of novel non-natural amino acids.

Rapid pseudo five-component synthesis of intensively blue luminescent 2,5-di(hetero)arylfurans via a Sonogashira-Glaser cyclization sequence

2,5-Di(hetero)arylfurans are readily accessible in a pseudo five-component reaction via a Sonogashira-Glaser coupling sequence followed by a superbase-mediated (KOH/DMSO) cyclization in a consecutive one-pot fashion. Besides the straightforward synthesis of natural products and biologically active molecules all representatives are particularly interesting due to their bright blue luminescence with remarkably high quantum yields. The electronic structure of the title compounds is additionally studied with DFT computations.

The internal modification of RNA has been successfully achieved by the functionality transfer reaction (FTR) and following click chemistry with diverse azide compounds. The benefits of the FTR have been demonstrated by its specificity, rapidity, broad applicability, and procedure simplicity.
Click-connected ligand scaffolds: macrocyclic chelates for asymmetric hydrogenation
Qing, Zhang,Takacs, James M.
, p. 545 - 548 (2008/09/17)
Click chemistry is used to construct ligand scaffolds for a series of chiral diphosphites. Enantioselectivity as high as 97% ee is obtained using these click ligands in rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation. Control experiments and spectroscopic data suggest that a 16-membered P,P-macrocyclic Rh(1) chelate is formed.
