2-Oxoglutarate (2OG) is involved in biological processes including oxidations catalyzed by 2OG oxygenases for which it is a cosubstrate. Eukaryotic 2OG oxygenases have roles in collagen biosynthesis, lipid metabolism, DNA/RNA modification, transcriptional regulation, and the hypoxic response. Aspartate/asparagine-β-hydroxylase (AspH) is a human 2OG oxygenase catalyzing post-translational hydroxylation of Asp/Asn-residues in epidermal growth factor-like domains (EGFDs) in the endoplasmic reticulum. AspH is of chemical interest, because its Fe(ii) cofactor is complexed by two rather than the typical three residues. AspH is upregulated in hypoxia and is a prognostic marker on the surface of cancer cells. We describe studies on how derivatives of its natural 2OG cosubstrate modulate AspH activity. An efficient synthesis of C3- and/or C4-substituted 2OG derivatives, proceedingviacyanosulfur ylid intermediates, is reported. Mass spectrometry-based AspH assays with >30 2OG derivatives reveal that some efficiently inhibit AspHviacompeting with 2OG as evidenced by crystallographic and solution analyses. Other 2OG derivatives can substitute for 2OG enabling substrate hydroxylation. The results show that subtle changes,e.g.methyl- to ethyl-substitution, can significantly alter the balance between catalysis and inhibition. 3-Methyl-2OG, a natural product present in human nutrition, was the most efficient alternative cosubstrate identified; crystallographic analyses reveal the binding mode of (R)-3-methyl-2OG and other 2OG derivatives to AspH and inform on the balance between turnover and inhibition. The results will enable the use of 2OG derivatives as mechanistic probes for other 2OG utilizing enzymes and suggest 2-oxoacids other than 2OG may be employed by some 2OG oxygenasesin vivo.

Six series of novel 4-(2-fluorophenoxy)-3,3′-bipyridine derivatives conjugated with aza-aryl formamide/amine scaffords were designed and synthesized through a structure-based molecular hybridization approach. The target compounds were evaluated for c-Met kinase inhibitory activities and cytotoxicity against four cancer cell lines (HT-29, A549, MKN-45 and MDA-MB-231) in vitro. Most compounds exhibited moderate to excellent potency, and the most promising candidate 26c (c-Met kinase IC50 = 8.2 nM) showed a 4.7-fold increase in cytotoxicity against c-Met-addicted MKN-45 cell line in vitro (IC50 = 3 nM), superior to that of Foretinib (IC50 = 23 nM). The preliminary structure-activity relationship indicated that a 1H-benzo [e] [1,3,4]thiadiazine-3-carboxamide-4,4-dioxide moiety as linker contributed to the antitumor potency.
