Abstract

Enzymatic modifications of split and mix libraries were followed by "pulling down" onto a 2-dimensional DNA microarray, via PNA tagging; this allowed complete library interrogation of all members of the split and mix library.

One-armed artificial receptors for the binding of polar tetrapeptides in water: probing the substrate selectivity of a combinatorial receptor library.

We have recently developed a new class of one-armed artificial receptors 1 for the binding of the polar tetrapeptide N-Ac-D-Glu-L-Lys-D-Ala-D-Ala-OH (EKAA) 2 in water using a combined combinatorial and statistical approach. We have now further probed the substrate selectivity of this receptor library 1 by screening a second tetrapeptide substrate (3) with the inverse sequence N-Ac-D-Ala-D-Ala-L-Lys-D-Glu-OH (AAKE). This "inverse" substrate is also efficiently bound by our receptors, with K(ass) approximately 6000 M(-1) for the best receptors, as determined both by a quantitative on-bead binding assay and by UV and fluorescence titration studies in free solution. Hence, the inverse tetrapeptide 3 is in general bound two to three times less efficiently than the "normal" peptide 2 (K(ass) approximately 17,000 M(-1)), even though the complexation mainly involves long-range electrostatic interactions and both the receptor and substrate are rather flexible. Molecular modeling and ab initio calculations have been used to rationalize the observed substrate selectivity and to analyze the various binding interactions within the complex.

Library design, synthesis, and screening: pyridine dicarbonitriles as potential prion disease therapeutics.

Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) or prion diseases are a family of invariably fatal neurodegenerative disorders, and there are no effective therapeutics currently available. In this paper, we report on the design, synthesis, and screening of a series of pyridine dicarbonitriles as potential novel prion disease therapeutics. A virtual reaction-based library of 1050 compounds was constructed. Docking and evaluation using GOLD scores assisted the initial selection of compounds for synthesis. The selection was augmented with further compounds to increase structural diversity. A total of 45 compounds were synthesized via a one-pot three-component coupling reaction. The mechanism of the three-component coupling reaction was investigated, and it was discovered that chemical oxidation is required for the last step, forming the pyridine ring (aromatization). A total of 19 compounds were identified as binders to one or more forms of prion protein by in vitro screening using surface plasmon resonance (SPR). A selection of compounds were investigated for activity in cells, resulting in the discovery of a new inhibitor of PrP(Sc) formation.

Facile synthesis toward the construction of an activity probe library for glycosidases.

Chemical probes that selectively label the glycoside hydrolase (GH) subfamilies have proven to be a powerful tool in GH-related research. We have previously demonstrated the design and synthesis of an activity probe for beta-glucosidase adopting a cassette-like design in a model study. Herein we report an improved synthetic route using (4-hydroxyphenyl)acetic acid 2-cyanoethyl ester as the precursor for the latent trapping device. Parallel syntheses were performed for the preparation of a library based on the structure of a key intermediate. The recognition head of this library covers a series of six sugars, including alpha- and beta-d-Glc, alpha- and beta-d-Gal, alpha-d-Man, and alpha-l-Fuc. Each member in this versatile intermediate library could serve as the building block in constructing an activity probe for GHs. As demonstrated in this study, three probes that have the 1,2-cis configuration were thus prepared for the first time to target alpha-d-glucosidase, alpha-d-galactosidase, and alpha-l-fucosidase, respectively.
