Certain cancers exhibit upregulation of DNA interstrand crosslink repair pathways, which contributes to resistance to crosslinking chemotherapy drugs and poor prognoses. Inhibition of enzymes implicated in interstrand crosslink repair is therefore a promising strategy for improving the efficacy of cancer treatment. One such target enzyme is SNM1A, a zinc co-ordinating 5’–3’ exonuclease. Previous studies have demonstrated the feasibility of inhibiting SNM1A using modified nucleosides appended with zinc-binding groups. In this work, we sought to develop more effective SNM1A inhibitors by exploiting interactions with the phosphate-binding pocket adjacent to the enzyme's active site, in addition to the catalytic zinc ions. A series of nucleoside derivatives bearing phosphate moieties at the 5’-position, as well as zinc-binding groups at the 3’-position, were prepared and tested in gel-electrophoresis and real-time fluorescence assays. As well as investigating novel zinc-binding groups, we found that incorporation of a 5’-phosphate dramatically increased the potency of the inhibitors.

Carbohydrates and natural products serve essential roles in nature, and also provide core scaffolds for pharmaceutical agents and vaccines. However, the inherent complexity of these molecules imposes significant synthetic hurdles for their selective functionalization and derivatization. Nature has, in part, addressed these issues by employing enzymes that are able to orient and activate substrates within a chiral pocket, which increases dramatically both the rate and selectivity of organic transformations. In this article we show that similar proximity effects can be utilized in the context of synthetic catalysts to achieve general and predictable site-selective functionalization of complex molecules. Unlike enzymes, our catalysts apply a single reversible covalent bond to recognize and bind to specific functional group displays within substrates. By combining this unique binding selectivity and asymmetric catalysis, we are able to modify the less reactive axial positions within monosaccharides and natural products.

Synthesis of cyclic di-nucleotidic acids as potential inhibitors targeting diguanylate cyclase

experimental part, p. 6657 - 6665 (2010/10/21)
Five analogs of cyclic di-nucleotidic acid including c-di-GMP were synthesized and evaluated for their biological activities on Slr1143, a diguanylate cyclase of Synechocystis sp. Slr1143 was overexpressed from the recombinant plasmid which contained the gene of interest and subsequently purified by affinity chromatography. A new HPLC method capable of separating the compound and product peaks with good resolution was optimized and applied to the analysis of the compounds. Results obtained show that cyclic di-inosinylic acid 1b demonstrates a stronger inhibition on Slr1143 than c-di-GMP and is a potential inhibitor for biofilm formation.

, p. 1007 - 1009 (2007/10/03)
An efficient synthesis of 2'-O-substituted ribonucleosides, including 2'-O-TBDMS and 2'-O-TOM protected as well as 2'-O-Me and 2'-O-allyl derivatives is presented. Di-t-butylsilylene group was employed for simultaneous protection of 3'- and 5'- hydroxyl functions of nucleoside on the first step. Subsequent silylation or alkylation of free 2'-OH followed by introduction of suitable protection on the base moiety and removal of cyclic silyl protection gave target compounds in a high yield.
