Chitinases are the glycosyl hydrolase for catalyzing the degradation of chitin and play an indispensable role in bacterial pathogenesis, fungal cell wall remodeling, and insect molting. Thus, chitinases are attractive targets for therapeutic drugs and pes

Transamidation reactions are often mediated by reactive substrates in the presence of overstoichiometric activating reagents and/or transition metal catalysts. Here we report the use of CO2as a traceless catalyst: in the presence of catalytic amounts of CO2, transamidation reactions were accelerated with primary, secondary, and tertiary amide donors. Various amine nucleophiles including amino acid derivatives were tolerated, showcasing the utility of transamidation in peptide modification and polymer degradation (e.g., Nylon-6,6). In particular,N,O-dimethylhydroxyl amides (Weinreb amides) displayed a distinct reactivity in the CO2-catalyzed transamidation versus a N2atmosphere. Comparative Hammett studies and kinetic analysis were conducted to elucidate the catalytic activation mechanism of molecular CO2, which was supported by DFT calculations. We attributed the positive effect of CO2in the transamidation reaction to the stabilization of tetrahedral intermediates by covalent binding to the electrophilic CO2

Abstract: A new series of fused tricyclic coumarin derivatives were designed, synthesized by a simple and convenient method, starting from 4-hydroxycoumarin and virtually screened by molecular docking on the target protein 3FRZ (PDB ID: 3FRZ), a HCV RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, for potency against hepatitis C virus (HCV). Efficient binding to the target protein was found for most of the synthesized compounds.

Speckle-type POZ protein (SPOP) is overexpressed in the nucleus and misallocated in the cytoplasm in almost all the clear-cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCCs), which leads to kidney tumorigenesis. Previously, we elucidated that the oncogenic SPOP-signaling pathway in ccRCC could be suppressed by 6b that inhibits SPOP-mediated protein interactions. Herein, we have established a structure-activity relationship for 6b analogues as SPOP inhibitors. Compound 6lc suppresses the viability and inhibits the colony formation of ccRCC cell lines driven by cytoplasmic SPOP, superior to 6b. Compound 6lc binds to the SPOP protein in vitro and disrupts SPOP binding to phosphatase-and-tensin homologue (PTEN) in HEK293T cells, which causes the observable phenomena: a decline in the ubiquitination of PTEN, elevated levels of both PTEN and dual-specificity phosphatase 7, and decreased levels of phosphorylated AKT and ERK when ccRCC cell lines are exposed to 6lc in a dose-response manner. Taken together, compound 6lc is a potent candidate against kidney tumorigenesis.
