Pinpointing mechanochemical bond rupture by embedding the mechanophore into a macrocycle
Schütze, Doreen,Holz, Katharina,Müller, Julian,Beyer, Martin K.,Lüning, Ulrich,Hartke, Bernd
, p. 2556 - 2559 (2015)
Mechanophores contain a mechanically labile bond that can be broken by an external mechanical force. Quantitative measurement and control of the applied force is possible through atomic force microscopy (AFM). A macrocycle was synthesized that contains both the mechanophore and an aliphatic chain that acts as a "safety line" upon bond breaking. This ring-opening mechanophore unit is linked to poly(ethylene glycol) spacers, which allow investigation by single molecule force spectroscopy. The length increase upon rupture of the mechanophore was measured and compared with quantum chemical calculations.

A series of self-organizing bent-core derivatives 1[12,n], containing a highly π-delocalized stable radical as the central angular structural element, is described. The planarity of the open-shell core permits efficient π-π stacking, which results in the formation of B2 and soft crystalline phases above 100 °C. Optical, XRD and dielectric analyses of 1[12,12] indicate that the ground state of the observed B2 phase is polar antiferroelectric of type SmCAPA exhibiting tristable electro-optical switching. SQUID and EPR measurements revealed strong antiferromagnetic spin-spin exchange interactions below the isotropic phase, which have been estimated at θ = -46 cm-1 with the Curie-Weiss law. Transient photoconductivity was observed in the B2 phase with a hole carrier mobility μh of 1.4 × 10-4 cm2 V-1 s-1

Human DNA topoisomerase II is one of the major targets in anticancer therapy, however ATP-competitive inhibitors of this target have not yet reached their full potential. ATPase domain of human DNA topoisomerase II belongs to the GHKL ATPase superfamily and shares a very high 3D structural similarity with other superfamily members, including bacterial topoisomerases. In this work we report the discovery of a new chemotype of ATP-competitive inhibitors of human DNA topoisomerase IIα that were discovered through screening of in-house library of ATP-competitive inhibitors of bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. Systematic screening of this library provided us with 20 hit compounds. 1,2,4-Substituted N-phenylpyrrolamides were selected for a further exploration which resulted in 13 new analogues, including 52 with potent activity in relaxation assay (IC50 = 3.2 μM) and ATPase assay (IC50 = 0.43 μM). Cytotoxic activity of all hits was determined in MCF-7 cancer cell line and the most potent compounds, 16 and 20, showed an IC50 value of 8.7 and 8.2 μM, respectively.

α-Helix proteomimetics such as oligobenzamides have been shown to successfully inhibit a broad array of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) mediated by α-helices. Here we report the synthesis of a protected oligobenzamide intermediate, which can be selectively deprotected and alkylated with desired side chains to rapidly afford a library of α-helix proteomimetics.

The design, synthesis, and conformational analysis of an oligobenzanilide helix mimetic scaffold capable of simultaneous mimicry of two faces of an α-helix is reported. The synthetic methodology provides access to diverse monomer building blocks amenable to solid-phase assembly in just four synthetic steps. The conformational flexibility of model dimers was investigated using a combination of solid and solution state methodologies supplemented with DFT calculations. The lack of noncovalent constraints allows for significant conformational plasticity in the scaffold, thus permitting it to successfully mimic residues i, i+2, i+4, i+6, i+7, and i+9 of a canonical α-helix.
Designing Dual Inhibitors of Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) and Bromodomain-4 (BRD4) by Tuning Kinase Selectivity

Concomitant inhibition of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) and bromodomain-4 (BRD4) is a potential therapeutic strategy for targeting two key oncogenic drivers that co-segregate in a significant fraction of high-risk neuroblastoma patients, mutation of ALK and amplification of MYCN. Starting from known dual polo-like kinase (PLK)-1-BRD4 inhibitor BI-2536, we employed structure-based design to redesign this series toward compounds with a dual ALK-BRD4 profile. These efforts led to compound (R)-2-((2-ethoxy-4-(1-methylpiperidin-4-yl)phenyl)amino)-7-ethyl-5-methyl-8-((4-methylthiophen-2-yl)methyl)-7,8-dihydropteridin-6(5H)-one (16k) demonstrating improved ALK activity and significantly reduced PLK-1 activity, while maintaining BRD4 activity and overall kinome selectivity. We demonstrate the compounds' on-target engagement with ALK and BRD4 in cells as well as favorable broad kinase and bromodomain selectivity.

ATP competitive inhibitors of DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV have great therapeutic potential, but none of the described synthetic compounds has so far reached the market. To optimise the activities and physicochemical properties of our previously reported N-phenylpyrrolamide inhibitors, we have synthesized an improved, chemically variegated selection of compounds and evaluated them against DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV enzymes, and against selected Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The most potent compound displayed IC50 values of 6.9 nM against Escherichia coli DNA gyrase and 960 nM against Staphylococcus aureus topoisomerase IV. Several compounds displayed minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) against Gram-positive strains in the 1–50 μM range, one of which inhibited the growth of Enterococcus faecalis, Enterococcus faecium, S. aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes with MIC values of 1.56 μM, 1.56 μM, 0.78 μM and 0.72 μM, respectively. This compound has been investigated further on methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and on ciprofloxacin non-susceptible and extremely drug resistant strain of S. aureus (MRSA VISA). It exhibited the MIC value of 2.5 μM on both strains, and MIC value of 32 μM against MRSA in the presence of inactivated human blood serum. Further studies are needed to confirm its mode of action.
