This work describes the first rational targeting of tyrosine residues in a protein binding site by small-molecule covalent probes. Specific tyrosine residues in the active site of the mRNA-decapping scavenger enzyme DcpS were modified using reactive sulfonyl fluoride covalent inhibitors. Structure-based molecular design was used to create an alkyne-tagged probe bearing the sulfonyl fluoride warhead, thus enabling the efficient capture of the protein from a complex proteome. Use of the probe in competition experiments with a diaminoquinazoline DcpS inhibitor permitted the quantification of intracellular target occupancy. As a result, diaminoquinazoline upregulators of survival motor neuron protein that are used for the treatment of spinal muscular atrophy were confirmed as inhibitors of DcpS in human primary cells. This work illustrates the utility of sulfonyl fluoride probes designed to react with specific tyrosine residues of a protein and augments the chemical biology toolkit by these probes uses in target validation and molecular pharmacology.

Phenotypic screening in disease-relevant models identifies small molecule hits with desirable efficacy but often with unknown modes of action. Target identification and validation are integral to successful biomedical research. Technologies are required to validate the biological target (or targets) through which a pharmacological agent is proposed to exert its effects. This work details the rational structure-based design, synthetic preparation and cell-based application of a clickable sulfonyl fluoride chemical probe to directly report on the mechanism of a series of compounds previously discovered in a reporter gene assay. Quantification of drug-target occupancy in living human primary cells enabled a deeper understanding of the molecular pharmacology of the chemotype. The technology described herein should be of broad interest to those involved in chemical biology research and the drug discovery endeavor.

The results of a high-throughput screening assay using the DENV-2 replicon showed that the 2,4-diaminoquinazoline derivative 4a has a high dengue virus inhibitory activity (EC50 = 0.15 μM). A series of 2,4-diaminoquinazoline derivatives based on 4a as a lead compound were synthesized and subjected to structure-antidengue activity relationship studies. Among the series of 2,4-diaminoquinazoline derivative probed, 4o was observed to display both the highest antiviral potency (EC50 = 2.8 nM, SI > 1000) and an excellent pharmacokinetic profile.

Antifolate and Antibacterial Activities of 5-Substituted 2,4-Diaminoquinazolines

, p. 434 - 444 (2007/10/02)
A series of 5-substituted 2,4-diaminoquinazolines (3) has been synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) from both bacterial and mammalian sources.The best compounds (e.g. 53) show good activity against Escherichia coli DHFR, but there is no significant selectivity for the bacterial over the mammalian enzyme.The structure-activity relationships for enzyme inhibition appear to be complex and not amenable to simple analysis; a hypotesis to explain the observed qualitative structure-activity relationships is proposed.The inhibitory activities of the compounds against the growth of intact bacterial cells in vitro closely parallel those for the inhibition of the isolated bacterial enzymes, suggesting that their antifolate action is responsible for their antibacterial effects.Five of the compounds were tested for their ability to cure a systemic E. coli infection in the mouse, but they showed no therapeutic effects at their maximum tolerated doses.
