A library of phosphonic acid analogs of phenylalanine substituted with fluorine, chlorine and trifluoromethyl moieties on the aromatic ring was synthesized and evaluated for inhibitory activity against human (hAPN) and porcine (pAPN) aminopeptidases. Fluorogenic screening indicated that these analogs are micromolar or submicromolar inhibitors, both enzymes being more active against hAPN. In order to better understand the mode of the action of the most active compounds, molecular modeling was used. It confirmed that aminophosphonic portion of the enzyme is bound nearly identically in the case of all the studied compounds, whereas the difference in activity results from the placement of aromatic side chain of an inhibitor. Interestingly, both enantiomers of the individual compounds are usually bound quite similarly.

Steroid sulfatase (STS) is responsible for the hydrolysis of biologically inactive sulfated steroids into their active un-sulfated forms and promotes the growth of various hormone-dependent cancers (e.g., breast cancer). Therefore, the STS enzyme is a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of steroid-sensitive cancers. Herein, we report the synthesis and biological evaluation of sulfamate analogs as potential STS inhibitors based on N-acylated tyramines that contain C–F bonds. The inhibitory effects of the analogs were tested using STS isolated from human placenta. Of the analogs tested, 4-(2-perfluoroundecanoylaminoethyl)-phenyl sulfamate, 5r, demonstrated the greatest inhibitory effect, with an IC50 value of 2.18?μm (IC50 value of 2.13?μm for coumarin-7-O-sulfamate was used as a reference). These findings were supported by the results our computational analyses performed using molecular docking techniques.

Redox-induced conformational alteration of N-aryl-N-phenylamides, in which the N-aryl group consists of a hydroquinone-p-quinone system, was examined. The reduced form bearing a dihydroxyphenyl or dimethoxyphenyl group exists mainly in the E-form, whereas the oxidized form bearing a N-benzoquinone moiety takes the Z-form both in the crystal and in solution. This redox-induced conformational alteration is associated with a marked change in optical properties. This system appears to have suitable properties for use in external redox stimulus-responsive functional switching.
