Asymmetric synthesis of inhibitors of glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase.

Project description:Glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase (GAR Tfase) catalyzes the first of two formyl transfer steps in the de novo purine biosynthetic pathway that require folate cofactors and has emerged as a productive target for antineoplastic therapeutic intervention. The asymmetric synthesis and evaluation of the two diastereomers of 10-methylthio-DDACTHF (10R-3 and 10S-3) and related analogues as potential inhibitors of GAR Tfase are reported. This work, which defines the importance of the C10 stereochemistry for this class of inhibitors of GAR Tfase, revealed that both diastereomers are potent inhibitors of rhGAR Tfase (10R-3 Ki = 210 nM, 10S-3 Ki = 180 nM) that exhibit effective cell growth inhibition (CCRF-CEM IC50 = 80 and 50 nM, respectively), which is dependent on intracellular polyglutamation by folylpolyglutamate synthetase (FPGS) but not intracellular transport by the reduced folate carrier.

N-(1-Acryloyl-2,2,6,6-tetra-methyl-piperidin-4-yl)acryl-amide.

Project description:The title compound, C(15)H(24)N(2)O(2), crystallizes with two unique mol-ecules, (I) and (II), in the asymmetric unit, differing in the orientation of the acryloyl units with respect to the piperidine rings. The acryl-amide units are essentially planar in both mol-ecules (r.m.s. deviations = 0.042 and 0.024?Å, respectively), as are the C(3)N chains of the acryloyl units. The carbonyl O atoms of the acryloyl systems lie significantly out of these planes, viz. by -0.171?(9)?Å for molecule (I) and by 0.33?(1)?Å for molecule (II). The acryl-amide and acryloyl planes are inclined at 68.7?(4)° and 59.8?(3)° in the two mol-ecules. The piperidine rings each adopt twist boat conformations. In the crystal, strong N-H?O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into zigzag C(4) chains along b. Additional C-H?O contacts result in the formation of stacks along a.

Intronic polyadenylation in the human glycinamide ribonucleotide formyltransferase gene.

Project description:The mouse glycinamide ribonucleotide formyltransferase (GART) locus is known to produce two functional proteins, one by recognition and use of an intronic polyadenylation site and the other by downstream splicing. We now report a similar intronic polyadenylation mechanism for the human GART locus. The human GART gene has two potential polyadenylation signals within the identically located intron as that involved in intronic polyadenylation in the mouse gene. Each of the potential polyadenylation signals in the human gene was followed by an extensive polyT rich tract, but only the downstream signal was preceded by a GT tract. Only the downstream signal was utilized. The polyT rich tract which followed the functional polyadenylation site in the human GART gene was virtually identical in sequence to a similarly placed region in the mouse gene. An exact inverted complement to the polyT rich stretch following the active polyadenylation signal was found in the upstream intron of the human gene, suggesting that a hairpin loop may be involved in this intronic polyadenylation.

Structural characterization of glycinamide-RNase-transformylase T from <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i>.

Project description:Enzymes from the purine salvage pathway in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) have been regarded as an attractive target for the development of anti-bacterial drugs. Although this pathway has not been extensively studied in Mtb, it has been identified as essential for growth and survival. Glycinamide-RNase-transformylase T (PurT) is found only in some specific bacteria including Mtb and utilizes ATP-dependent ligation to catalyze the formylation of 5'-phosphoribosyl-glycinamide (GAR) in the third reaction of the de novo purine salvage pathway. In the study, we determined the crystal structure of MtbPurT at a resolution of 2.79 Å. In contrast to Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3 PurT (phBCCPPurT), MtbPurT exhibits an "open" conformation, which results in a broader ATP-binding pocket and thus might facilitate the entry and exit of the cofactor. Additionally, active site superposition with E.coli PurT (EcPurT) showed that residues involved in the ATP-binding site in MtbPurT exhibited structural similarity but had notable difference in the GAR-binding site. The loop 383-389 in MtbPurT was much shorter and shifted 5.7 Å away from the phosphate of the GAR substrate. The different GAR-binding mode might result in a large conformational change in MtbPurT, and would provide a possible opportunity for anti-TB drug development.

Stereocontrolled synthesis of syn-?-Hydroxy-?-amino acids by direct aldolization of pseudoephenamine glycinamide.

Project description:?-Hydroxy-?-amino acids figure prominently as chiral building blocks in chemical synthesis and serve as precursors to numerous important medicines. Reported herein is a method for the synthesis of ?-hydroxy-?-amino acid derivatives by aldolization of pseudoephenamine glycinamide, which can be prepared from pseudoephenamine in a one-flask protocol. Enolization of (R,R)- or (S,S)-pseudoephenamine glycinamide with lithium hexamethyldisilazide in the presence of LiCl followed by addition of an aldehyde or ketone substrate affords aldol addition products that are stereochemically homologous with L- or D-threonine, respectively. These products, which are typically solids, can be obtained in stereoisomerically pure form in yields of 55-98?%, and are readily transformed into ?-hydroxy-?-amino acids by mild hydrolysis or into 2-amino-1,3-diols by reduction with sodium borohydride. This new chemistry greatly facilitates the construction of novel antibiotics of several different classes.

In silico analysis of glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase inhibition by PY873, PY899 and DIA.

Project description:In humans, purine de novo synthesis pathway consists of multi-functional enzymes. Nucleotide metabolism enzymes are potential drug targets for treating cancer and autoimmune diseases. Glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase (GART) is one of the most important trifunctional enzymes involved in purine synthesis. Previous studies have demonstrated the role of folate inhibitors against tumor activity. In this present study, three components of GART enzyme were targeted as receptor dataset and in silico analysis was carried out with folate ligand dataset. To accomplish the task, Autodock 4.2 was used for determining the docking compatibilities of ligand and receptor dataset. Taken together, it has been suggested that folate ligands could be potentially used as inhibitors of GART.

Protein preparation, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic studies of Bacillus subtilis glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase.

Project description:Glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase (GART) catalyzes the transfer of a formyl group from formyl tetrahydrofolate (FTHF) to glycinamide ribonucleotide (GAR), which is an essential step in the de novo synthesis pathway of purines. In Bacillus subtilis, GART is encoded by the gene purN. In order to study the structure and function of B. subtilis GART, the purN gene was amplified, cloned into an expression vector and expressed in soluble form in Escherichia coli. The protein was purified to homogeneity and crystals suitable for X-ray data collection were obtained. These crystals diffracted to 2.5 A resolution and belonged to space group P3(1)21, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 95.5, c = 64.0 A.

Structural and Enzymatic Analysis of Tumor-Targeted Antifolates That Inhibit Glycinamide Ribonucleotide Formyltransferase.

Project description:Pemetrexed and methotrexate are antifolates used for cancer chemotherapy and inflammatory diseases. These agents have toxic side effects resulting, in part, from nonspecific cellular transport by the reduced folate carrier (RFC), a ubiquitously expressed facilitative transporter. We previously described 2-amino-4-oxo-6-substituted pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine antifolates with modifications of the side chain linker and aromatic ring that are poor substrates for RFC but are efficiently transported via folate receptors (FRs) and the proton-coupled folate transporter (PCFT). These targeted antifolates are cytotoxic in vitro toward FR- and PCFT-expressing tumor cells and in vivo with human tumor xenografts in immune-compromised mice, reflecting selective cellular uptake. Antitumor efficacy is due to inhibition of glycinamide ribonucleotide (GAR) formyltransferase (GARFTase) activity in de novo synthesis of purine nucleotides. This study used purified human GARFTase (formyltransferase domain) to assess in vitro inhibition by eight novel thieno- and pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine antifolates. Seven analogues (AGF23, AGF71, AGF94, AGF117, AGF118, AGF145, and AGF147) inhibited GARFTase with Ki values in the low- to mid-nanomolar concentration range, whereas AGF50 inhibited GARFTase with micromolar potency similar to that of PMX. On the basis of crystal structures of ternary complexes with GARFTase, ?-GAR, and the monoglutamyl antifolates, differences in inhibitory potencies correlated well with antifolate binding and the positions of the terminal carboxylates. Our data provide a mechanistic basis for differences in inhibitory potencies between these novel antifolates and a framework for future structure-based drug design. These analogues could be more efficacious than clinically used antifolates, reflecting their selective cellular uptake by FRs and PCFT and potent GARFTase inhibition.

Structures of apo and complexed Escherichia coli glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase.

Project description:The three-dimensional structure of phosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase (10-formyltetrahydrofolate:5'-phosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase, EC 2.1.2.2) has been solved both as an apoenzyme at 2.8-A resolution and as a ternary complex with the substrate glycinamide ribonucleotide and a folate inhibitor at 2.5-A resolution. The structure is a modified doubly wound alpha/beta sheet with flexibility in the active site, including a disordered loop in the apo structure, which is ordered in the ternary complex structure. This enzyme is a target for anti-cancer therapy and now for structure-based drug design.
