Enzymatic Macrocyclization of 1,2,3-Triazole Peptide Mimetics.

ABSTRACT: The macrocyclization of linear peptides is very often accompanied by significant improvements in their stability and biological activity. Many strategies are available for their chemical macrocyclization, however, enzyme-mediated methods remain of great interest in terms of synthetic utility. To date, known macrocyclization enzymes have been shown to be active on both peptide and protein substrates. Here we show that the macrocyclization enzyme of the cyanobactin family, PatGmac, is capable of macrocyclizing substrates with one, two, or three 1,4-substituted 1,2,3-triazole moieties. The introduction of non-peptidic scaffolds into macrocycles is highly desirable in tuning the activity and physical properties of peptidic macrocycles. We have isolated and fully characterized nine non-natural triazole-containing cyclic peptides, a further ten molecules are also synthesized. PatGmac has now been shown to be an effective and versatile tool for the ring closure by peptide bond formation.

Identification of 8-Azaguanine Biosynthesis-Related Genes Provides Insight Into the Enzymatic and Non-enzymatic Biosynthetic Pathway for 1,2,3-Triazole.

Project description:8-Azaguanine (1) is a special 1,2,3-triazole containing natural product that possesses potent antibacterial and antitumor activities. In the present study, the entire 8-azaguanine biosynthetic gene cluster was located from Streptomyces CGMCC4.1633. Targeted gene disruption, heterologous expression analysis, and feeding experiments identified crucial genes for 8-azaguanine production. Moreover, we characterized the structure of two novel metabolites, analyzed NO (or reactive nitrogen species) related genes 8-azgA/B and radical SAM enzyme homologous 8-AzgG, and verified the non-enzymatic ring formation reaction of 8-azaguanine 1,2,3-triazole. All of the data and presumptions provide insight into the timing and mechanism of the enzymatic and non-enzymatic pathway that produce 8-azaguanine-type 1,2,3-triazole.

Synthesis of Hybrid Cyclopeptides through Enzymatic Macrocyclization.

Project description:Natural products comprise a diverse array of molecules, many of which are biologically active. Most natural products are derived from combinations of polyketides, peptides, sugars, and fatty-acid building blocks. Peptidic macrocycles have attracted attention as potential therapeutics possessing cell permeability, stability, and easy-to-control variability. Here, we show that enzymes from the patellamide biosynthetic pathway can be harnessed to make macrocycles that are hybrids of amino acids and a variety of manmade chemical building blocks, including aryl rings, polyethers, and alkyl chains. We have made macrocycles with only three amino acids, one of which can be converted to a thiazoline or a thiazole ring. We report the synthesis of 18 peptide hybrid macrocycles, nine of which have been isolated and fully characterized.

Regioselective Reduction of 1H-1,2,3-Triazole Diesters.

Project description:Regioselective reactions can play pivotal roles in synthetic organic chemistry. The reduction of several 1-substituted 1,2,3-triazole 4,5-diesters by sodium borohydride has been found to be regioselective, with the C(5) ester groups being more reactive towards reduction than the C(4) ester groups. The amount of sodium borohydride and reaction time required for reduction varied greatly depending on the N(1)-substituent. The presence of a β-hydroxyl group on the N(1)-substituent was seen to have a rate enhancing effect on the reduction of the C(5) ester group. The regioselective reduction was attributed to the lower electron densities of the C(5) and the C(5) ester carbonyl carbon of the 1,2,3-triazole, which were further lowered in cases involving intramolecular hydrogen bonding.

1,2,3-Triazole Derivatives as Novel Antifibrinolytic Drugs.

Project description:Fibrinolysis is a natural process that ensures blood fluidity through the removal of fibrin deposits. However, excessive fibrinolytic activity can lead to complications in different circumstances, such as general surgery or severe trauma. The current antifibrinolytic drugs in the market, aminocaproic acid (EACA) and tranexamic acid (TXA), require high doses repetitively to maintain their therapeutic effect. These high doses are related to a number of side effects such as headaches, nasal symptoms, or gastrointestinal discomfort and severely limit their use in patients with renal impairment. Therefore, the discovery of novel antifibrinolytics with a higher specificity and lower dosage could vastly improve the applicability of these drugs. Herein, we synthesized a total of ten compounds consisting of a combination of three key moieties: an oxadiazolone, a triazole, and a terminal amine. The IC50 of each compound was calculated in our clot lysis assays, and the best candidate (1) provided approximately a 2.5-fold improvement over the current gold standard, TXA. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics were used to perform a structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis with the lysine binding site in the Kringle 1 domain of plasminogen. This analysis revealed that 1,2,3-triazole was crucial for the activity, enhancing the binding affinity through pi-pi stacking and polar interactions with Tyr72. The results presented in this work open the door to further investigate this new family as potential antifibrinolytic drugs.

Decarboxylative Peptide Macrocyclization through Photoredox Catalysis.

Project description:A method for the decarboxylative macrocyclization of peptides bearing N-terminal Michael acceptors has been developed. This synthetic method enables the efficient synthesis of cyclic peptides containing γ-amino acids and is tolerant of functionalities present in both natural and non-proteinogenic amino acids. Linear precursors ranging from 3 to 15 amino acids cyclize effectively under this photoredox method. To demonstrate the preparative utility of this method in the context of bioactive molecules, we synthesized COR-005, a somatostatin analogue that is currently in clinical trials.

1,2,3-Triazole-heme interactions in cytochrome P450: functionally competent triazole-water-heme complexes.

Project description:In comparison to imidazole (IMZ) and 1,2,4-triazole (1,2,4-TRZ), the isosteric 1,2,3-triazole (1,2,3-TRZ) is unrepresented among cytochrome P450 (CYP) inhibitors. This is surprising because 1,2,3-TRZs are easily obtained via "click" chemistry. To understand this underrepresentation of 1,2,3-TRZs among CYP inhibitors, thermodynamic and density functional theory computational studies were performed with unsubstituted IMZ, 1,2,4-TRZ, and 1,2,3-TRZ. The results indicate that the lower affinity of 1,2,3-TRZ for the heme iron includes a large unfavorable entropy term likely originating in solvent-1,2,3-TRZ interactions; the difference is not solely due to differences in the enthalpy of heme-ligand interactions. In addition, the 1,2,3-TRZ fragment was incorporated into a well-established CYP3A4 substrate and mechanism-based inactivator, 17-α-ethynylestradiol (17EE), via click chemistry. This derivative, 17-click, yielded optical spectra consistent with low-spin ferric heme iron (type II) in contrast to 17EE, which yields a high-spin complex (type I). Furthermore, the rate of CYP3A4-mediated metabolism of 17-click was comparable to that of 17EE, with a different regioselectivity. Surprisingly, continuous-wave electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and HYSCORE EPR spectroscopy indicate that 17-click does not displace water from the sixth axial ligand position of CYP3A4 as expected for a type II ligand. We propose a binding model in which 17-click pendant 1,2,3-TRZ hydrogen bonds with the sixth axial water ligand. The results demonstrate the potential for 1,2,3-TRZ to form metabolically labile water-bridged low-spin heme complexes, consistent with recent evidence that nitrogenous type II ligands of CYPs can be efficiently metabolized. The specific case of [CYP3A4·17-click] highlights the risk of interpreting CYP-ligand complex structure on the basis of optical spectra.

1,2,3-Triazole β-lactam conjugates as antimicrobial agents.

Project description:A convenient and efficient synthesis of new triazole β-lactam conjugates using click chemistry is described. β-lactam 15 and 16 were prepared using cycloaddition strategy and propargylated at N-1 to afford compounds 17 and 18. Cu-catalyzed click reaction of these β-lactams 17 and 18 with different aryl azides provided 1,2,3-triazole conjugates 6 and 7, respectively. The products were fully characterized spectroscopically and tested against Gram-(+) and Gram-(-) bacteria. Compound 7a and 7c were found to be most active.

Versatile Peptide Macrocyclization with Diels-Alder Cycloadditions.

Project description:Macrocyclization can improve bioactive peptide ligands through preorganization of molecular topology, leading to improvement of pharmacologic properties like binding affinity, cell permeability, and metabolic stability. Here we demonstrate that Diels-Alder [4 + 2] cycloadditions can be harnessed for peptide macrocyclization and stabilization within a range of peptide scaffolds and chemical environments. Diels-Alder cyclization of diverse diene-dienophile reactive pairs proceeds rapidly, in high yield and with tunable stereochemical preferences on solid-phase or in aqueous solution. This reaction can be applied alone or in concert with other stabilization chemistries, such as ring-closing olefin metathesis, to stabilize loop, turn, and ?-helical secondary structural motifs. NMR and molecular dynamics studies of model loop peptides confirmed preferential formation of endo cycloadduct stereochemistry, imparting significant structural rigidity to the peptide backbone that resulted in augmented protease resistance and increased biological activity of a Diels-Alder cyclized (DAC) RGD peptide. Separately, we demonstrated the stabilization of DAC ?-helical peptides derived from the ER?-binding protein SRC2. We solved a 2.25 Å cocrystal structure of one DAC helical peptide bound to ER?, which unequivocally corroborated endo stereochemistry of the resulting Diels-Alder adduct, and confirmed that the unique architecture of stabilizing motifs formed with this chemistry can directly contribute to target binding. These data establish Diels-Alder cyclization as a versatile approach to stabilize diverse protein structural motifs under a range of chemical environments.
