Selective lysine modification of native peptides: Via aza-Michael addition

A series of vinylsulfonamides were synthesized and screened for site-selective modification of the ?-amino group of lysine-bearing free α-amine residues. N-Methyl-N-phenylethenesulfonamide has emerged as an applicable reagent and has been developed for efficient and highly selective modification of the lysine residue of native peptides in the presence of a free N-terminus via aza-Michael addition. We demonstrated that functional N-phenylvinylsulfonamide derivatives with a fluorescent moiety or drug could also be conjugated to the lysine residue of octreotide and insulin with high specificity, without modifying the N-terminus. Our method provides a promising strategy for site-selective lysine functionalization in native peptides with a free N-terminus.

Bicyclic core estrogens as full antagonists: Synthesis, biological evaluation and structure-activity relationships of estrogen receptor ligands based on bridged oxabicyclic core arylsulfonamides

Compounds that block estrogen action through the estrogen receptor (ER) or downregulate ER levels are useful for the treatment of breast cancer and endocrine disorders. In our search for structurally novel estrogens having three-dimensional core scaffolds, we found some compounds with a 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptene core that bound well to the ERs. The best of these compounds, a phenyl sulfonate ester (termed OBHS for oxabicycloheptene sulfonate), was a partial antagonist on both ERα and ERβ. Although OBHS bears no structural resemblance to other estrogen antagonists, it appears to achieve its partial antagonist character by stabilizing a novel conformation of the ER that involves a significant distortion of helix-11. To enhance the antagonist properties of these oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane core ligands, we expanded the functional diversity of OBHS by replacing the sulfonate with secondary or tertiary sulfonamides (-SO2NR-), isoelectronic and potentially isostructural molecular replacements. An array of 16 OBHS sulfonamide analogues were prepared through a Diels-Alder reaction of a 3,4-diarylfuran using various N-aryl vinyl sulfonamide dienophiles. While the more polar secondary sulphonamides were weak ligands, certain of the tertiary sulfonamides had very good ER binding affinity. In HepG2 cell reporter gene assays, the sulphonamides had moderate potency, but they showed lower intrinsic transcriptional activity on ERα than the selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) hydroxytamoxifen or OBHS, and they were inverse agonists on ERβ. Thus, the behaviour of these OBH-sulfonamides more closely mirrors the activity of full antagonists like the drug fulvestrant (ICI 182780), and their greater antagonist biocharacter appears to arise from an accentuated distortion of helix-11.
