The control and prediction of the self-assembly process in multicomponent supramolecular gels are challenging because the structure and properties rely mostly on the geometry and spatial arrangement of the building blocks. The understanding of noncovalent

Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid that has been identified as an accelerant of cancer progression. The sphingosine kinases (SphKs) are the sole producers of S1P, and thus, SphK inhibitors may prove effective in cancer mitigation and chemosensitization. Of the two SphKs, SphK1 overexpression has been observed in a myriad of cancer cell lines and tissues and has been recognized as the presumptive target over that of the poorly characterized SphK2. Herein, we present the design and synthesis of amidine-based nanomolar SphK1 subtype-selective inhibitors. A homology model of SphK1, trained with this library of amidine inhibitors, was then used to predict the activity of additional, more potent, inhibitors. Lastly, select amidine inhibitors were validated in human leukemia U937 cells, where they significantly reduced endogenous S1P levels at nanomolar concentrations.

A homology derived molecular model of prostate specific antigen (PSA) was created and refined. The active site region was investigated for specific interacting functionality and a binding model postulated for the novel 2-azetidinone acyl enzyme inhibitor 1 (IC50 = 8.98 ± 0.90 μM) which was used as a lead compound in this study. A single low energy conformation structure II (Figure 2) was adopted as most likely to represent binding after minimization and dynamics calculations. Systematic analysis of the binding importance of all three side chains appended to the 2-azetidinone was conducted by the synthesis of several analogues. A proposed salt bridge to Lys-145 with 4 (IC50 = 5.84 ± 0.92 μM) gave improved inhibition, but generally the binding of the N-1 side chain in a specific secondary aromatic binding site did not tolerate much structural alteration. A hydrophobic interaction of the C-4 side chain afforded inhibitor 6 (IC50 = 1.43 ± 0.19 μM), and polar functionality could also be added in a proposed interaction with Gln-166 in 5 (IC50 = 1.34 ± 0.05 μM). Reversal of the C-4 ester connectivity furnished inhibitors 7 (IC50 = 1.59 ± 0.15 μM), 11 IC50 = 3.08 ± 0.41 μM) and 13 (IC50 = 2.19 ± 0.36 Mμ) which were perceived to bind to PSA by a rotation of 180° relative to the C-4 ester of normal connectivity. Incorporation of hydroxyl functionality into the C-3 side chain provided 16 IC50 = 348 ± 50 nM) with the greatest increase in PSA inhibition by a single modification. Multiple copy simultaneous search (MCSS) analysis of the PSA active site further supported our model and suggested that 18 would bind strongly. Asymmetric synthesis yielded 18 (IC50 = 226 ± 10 nM) as the most potent inhibitor of PSA reported to date. It is concluded that our design approach has been successful in developing PSA inhibitors and could also be applied to the inhibition of other enzymes, especially in the absence of crystallographic information.
