- Total Synthesis and Biological Assessment of Novel Albicidins Discovered by Mass Spectrometric Networking
-
Natural products represent an important source of potential novel antimicrobial drug leads. Low production by microorganisms in cell culture often delays the structural elucidation or even prevents a timely discovery. Starting from the anti-Gram-negative antibacterial compound albicidin produced by Xanthomonas albilineans, we describe a bioactivity-guided approach combined with non-targeted tandem mass spectrometry and spectral (molecular) networking for the discovery of novel antimicrobial compounds. We report eight new natural albicidin derivatives, four of which bear a β-methoxy cyanoalanine or β-methoxy asparagine as the central α-amino acid. We present the total synthesis of these albicidins, which facilitated the unambiguous determination of the (2 S,3 R)-stereoconfiguration which is complemented by the assessment of the stereochemistry on antibacterial activity.

- Perturbation of the c-Myc-Max Protein-Protein Interaction via Synthetic α-Helix Mimetics
-
The rational design of inhibitors of the bHLH-ZIP oncoprotein c-Myc is hampered by a lack of structure in its monomeric state. We describe herein the design of novel, low-molecular-weight, synthetic α-helix mimetics that recognize helical c-Myc in its transcriptionally active coiled-coil structure in association with its obligate bHLH-ZIP partner Max. These compounds perturb the heterodimer's binding to its canonical E-box DNA sequence without causing protein-protein dissociation, heralding a new mechanistic class of "direct" c-Myc inhibitors. In addition to electrophoretic mobility shift assays, this model was corroborated by further biophysical methods, including NMR spectroscopy and surface plasmon resonance. Several compounds demonstrated a 2-fold or greater selectivity for c-Myc-Max heterodimers over Max-Max homodimers with IC50 values as low as 5.6 μM. Finally, these compounds inhibited the proliferation of c-Myc-expressing cell lines in a concentration-dependent manner that correlated with the loss of expression of a c-Myc-dependent reporter plasmid despite the fact that c-Myc-Max heterodimers remained intact. (Chemical Equation Presented).

- Substituent effects on energetics of peptide-carboxylate hydrogen bonds as studied by 1H NMR spectroscopy: Implications for enzyme catalysis
-
Substituent effects in N-H···O hydrogen bonds were estimated by comparing the acidities of two series of model compounds: N-benzoylanthranilic acids (A) and 4-benzoylamidobenzoic acids (B). Intramolecular N-H···O hydrogen bonds were found to be present in the A series of compounds, while B acids were used as control models. The respective pKa values for A and B acids were determined experimentally in DMSO solution using proton NMR spectroscopy. With X = H, the pKa for A and B acids were observed to be 7.6 and 11.6, respectively, a difference of 4.0 units (ΔpKa). However, with X = p-NO 2, the ΔpKa value between A and B acids increased to 4.7 units: the pKa values for A and B acids were determined as 6.7 and 11.4, respectively. The ΔpKa values between A and B acids as a function of the X substituents were studied in 10 other examples. The effects of X substituents in A acids could be predicted on the basis of the observed linear Hammett correlations, and the sensitivity of each substituent effect was found to be comparable to those observed for the ionization of substituted benzoic acids (ρ = 1.04 for A acids, and ρ = 1.00 for benzoic acids).

- Antiallergic and cytoprotective activity of new N-phenylbenzamido acid derivatives
-
A series of new N-phenylbenzamido acid derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for their ability to inhibit the IgE-mediated passive cutaneous anaphylaxis in the rat (PCA), as well as for their capacity to inhibit gastric mucosal damage induced by the oral administration of absolute alcohol in the rat. Some of these new derivatives exhibit potent antiallergic and cytoprotective activity, 20-80 times higher than that of the reference, disodium cromoglycate (DSCG). Structure-activity relationships are discussed. The antiallergic activity of one of the more potent compounds of this series, i.e. 4-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-N-[4-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)phenyl]benzamide (compound 44, CR 2039) was further evaluated in vivo. This compound antagonizes the bronchoconstriction induced by aerosolized ovalbumin in both anesthetized and conscious IgE sensitized guinea pigs with ID50 of 3.7 mg/animal (tracheal insufflation) and 20 mg/kg (im). Further cytoprotective effects were evaluated in gastric ulcer models induced by the acute oral administration of hypertonic sodium chloride solution or by acetic acid and by the subchronic administration of glucose in fasted animals. In the models used experimentally CR 2039 is effective, whereas DSCG seems to be devoid of any protective activity. Such a potent antiallergic and mucosal protectant could provide a new potential agent in the therapy of atopic allergic diseases.
