Synthesis of a Biologically Important Adenosine Triphosphate Analogue, ApppD.

ABSTRACT: The chemical synthesis of a adenosine triphosphate analogue, 1-adenosin-5'-yl 3-(3-methylbut-2-enyl) triphosphoric acid diester (ApppD), is described. ApppD is known to be an active metabolite of the mevalonate pathway in the human body like its structural isomer isopentenyl ester of ATP (ApppI). Very recently, ApppI has been found to possess novel function(s); now it will also be possible to examine the effects of ApppD more precisely because it can be synthesized in reasonable amounts. 1-Adenosin-5'-yl 3-(3-methylbut-2-enyl) diphosphoric acid diester (AppD; a adenosine diphosphate analogue) was also isolated from the synthesis mixture. Both ApppD and AppD were characterized by 1H, 13C, 31P NMR and mass spectrometry methods.

Two strategies for the synthesis of the biologically important ATP analogue ApppI, at a multi-milligram scale.

Project description:Two strategies for the synthesis of the ATP (adenosine triphosphate) analogue ApppI [1-adenosin-5'-yl 3-(3-methylbut-3-enyl)triphosphoric acid diester] (1) are described. ApppI is an active metabolite of the mevalonate pathway and thus is of major biological significance. Chemically synthezised ApppI was purified by using triethylammonium bicarbonate as the counter ion in ion-pair chromatography and characterized by (1)H, (13)C, (31)P NMR and MS spectroscopical methods.

Synthesis and polymerase activity of a fluorescent cytidine TNA triphosphate analogue.

Project description:Threose nucleic acid (TNA) is an artificial genetic polymer capable of undergoing Darwinian evolution to produce aptamers with affinity to specific targets. This property, coupled with a backbone structure that is refractory to nuclease digestion, makes TNA an attractive biopolymer system for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Expanding the chemical diversity of TNA beyond the natural bases would enable the development of functional TNA molecules with enhanced physiochemical properties. Here, we describe the synthesis and polymerase activity of a fluorescent cytidine TNA triphosphate analogue (1,3-diaza-2-oxo-phenothiazine, tCfTP) that maintains Watson-Crick base pairing with guanine. Polymerase-mediated primer-extension assays reveal that tCfTP is efficiently added to the growing end of a TNA primer. Detailed kinetic assays indicate that tCfTP and tCTP have comparable rates for the first nucleotide incorporation step (kobs1). However, addition of the second nucleotide (kobs2) is 700-fold faster for tCfTP than tCTP due the increased effects of base stacking. Last, we found that TNA replication using tCfTP in place of tCTP exhibits 98.4% overall fidelity for the combined process of TNA transcription and reverse transcription. Together, these results expand the chemical diversity of enzymatically generated TNA molecules to include a hydrophobic base analogue with strong fluorescent properties that is compatible with in vitro selection.

An active-site-directed adenosine triphosphate analogue binds to the beta-subunits of factor F1 mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase with its triphosphate moiety.

Project description:The reaction of the mixed anhydride of [3H]ATP and mesitylenecarboxylic acid and soluble mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase is accompanied by the covalent binding of one molecule of the inhibitor to a molecule of the enzyme and results in the inhibition of adenosine triphosphatase activity by more than 90%. The electrophoresis of adenosine triphosphatase modified by reaction with the mixed anhydride of [3H]ATP and mesitylenecarboxylic acid in polyacrylamide gel in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate showed that the inhibitor is bound to the beta-subunit of the enzyme. The results suggest that ATP may also bind to the beta-subunit of the adenosine triphosphatase with its triphosphate moiety.

Transition State Analysis of Adenosine Triphosphate Phosphoribosyltransferase.

Project description:Adenosine triphosphate phosphoribosyltransferase (ATP-PRT) catalyzes the first step in histidine biosynthesis, a pathway essential to microorganisms and a validated target for antimicrobial drug design. The ATP-PRT enzyme catalyzes the reversible substitution reaction between phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate and ATP. The enzyme exists in two structurally distinct forms, a short- and a long-form enzyme. These forms share a catalytic core dimer but bear completely different allosteric domains and thus distinct quaternary assemblies. Understanding enzymatic transition states can provide essential information on the reaction mechanisms and insight into how differences in domain structure influence the reaction chemistry, as well as providing a template for inhibitor design. In this study, the transition state structures for ATP-PRT enzymes from Campylobacter jejuni and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (long-form enzymes) and from Lactococcus lactis (short-form) were determined and compared. Intrinsic kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) were obtained at reaction sensitive positions for the reverse reaction using phosphonoacetic acid, an alternative substrate to the natural substrate pyrophosphate. The experimental KIEs demonstrated mechanistic similarities between the three enzymes and provided experimental boundaries for quantum chemical calculations to characterize the transition states. Predicted transition state structures support a dissociative reaction mechanism with a DN*AN‡ transition state. Weak interactions from the incoming nucleophile and a fully dissociated ATP adenine are predicted regardless of the difference in overall structure and quaternary assembly. These studies establish that despite significant differences in the quaternary assembly and regulatory machinery between ATP-PRT enzymes from different sources, the reaction chemistry and catalytic mechanism are conserved.

Synthesis, characterization and electrochemical properties of some biologically important indole-based-sulfonamide derivatives.

Project description:A new series of indole-based-sulfonamide derivatives (A1-A8) was synthesized by treating 5-fluoro-1H-indole-3-carbohydrazide with different aryl-sulfonyl chloride in the presence of pyridine. All synthesized derivatives (A1-A8) were characterized by different analytical methods. The electrochemical behavior of these compounds (A1-A8) was investigated in detail using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV) at the pencil graphite electrode (PGE). In the present study, the redox behavior of all derivatives varies due to the nature of substitutions in the indole sulfonamide moiety. Various fundamental electrochemical parameters, including the standard heterogeneous rate constants (ks), and the electroactive surface coverage (?) were calculated from the obtained CVs. The obtained results shed light on the understanding of structure-activity relationships of this class of compounds.

Adenosine triphosphate stimulates Aquifex aeolicus MutL endonuclease activity.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Human PMS2 (hPMS2) homologues act to nick 5' and 3' to misincorporated nucleotides during mismatch repair in organisms that lack MutH. Mn(++) was previously found to stimulate the endonuclease activity of these homologues. ATP was required for the nicking activity of hPMS2 and yPMS1, but was reported to inhibit bacterial MutL proteins from Thermus thermophilus and Aquifex aeolicus that displayed homology to hPMS2. Mutational analysis has identified the DQHA(X)(2)E(X)(4)E motif present in the C-terminus of PMS2 homologues as important for endonuclease activity. METHODOLOGIES/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS:We examined the effect ATP had on the Mn(++) induced nicking of supercoiled pBR322 by full-length and mutant A. aeolicus MutL (Aae MutL) proteins. Assays were single time point, enzyme titration experiments or reaction time courses. The maximum velocity for MutL nicking was determined to be 1.6+/-0.08x10(-5) s(-1) and 4.2+/-0.3x10(-5) s(-1) in the absence and presence of ATP, respectively. AMPPNP stimulated the nicking activity to a similar extent as ATP. A truncated Aae MutL protein composed of only the C-terminal 123 amino acid residues was found to nick supercoiled DNA. Furthermore, mutations in the conserved C-terminal DQHA(X)(2)E(X)(4)E and CPHGRP motifs were shown to abolish Aae MutL endonuclease activity. CONCLUSIONS:ATP stimulated the Mn(++) induced endonuclease activity of Aae MutL. Experiments utilizing AMPPNP implied that the stimulation did not require ATP hydrolysis. A mutation in the DQHA(X)(2)E(X)(4)E motif of Aae MutL further supported the role of this region in endonclease activity. For the first time, to our knowledge, we demonstrate that changing the histidine residue in the conserved CPHGRP motif abolishes endonucleolytic activity of a hPMS2 homologue. Finally, the C-terminal 123 amino acid residues of Aae MutL were sufficient to display Mn(++) induced nicking activity.

Synthesis of adenosine triphosphate in isolated nuclei and intact cells.

Project description:1. It has previously been demonstrated that nuclei isolated from normal and neoplastic lymphoid cells are capable of oxygen-dependent ATP synthesis. In this paper it is shown that also the corresponding intact cells can synthesize ATP under those conditions in which nuclei can synthesize ATP. 2. In nuclei isolated from liver, kidney, rhabdomyosarcoma and osteosarcoma, oxygen-dependent ATP synthesis could not be demonstrated. The cells isolated from these tissues or tumours could not synthesize ATP either. The alternatives that such nuclei lost their ability for oxidative phosphorylation during the isolation procedure or that the process does not occur in these nuclei were explored. 3. Janus Green B, a vital stain for mitochondria, was used as a differential inhibitor of mitochondrial and nuclear ATP synthesis in intact cells. 4. Oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria isolated from cells that had been incubated with various concentrations of Janus Green B (1-10mum) was seriously uncoupled, whereas at these concentrations oxygen-dependent ATP synthesis in isolated nuclei and in isolated cells were only inhibited to a small extent. 5. The results suggest that oxygen-dependent ATP synthesis in isolated cells measured under ;nuclear' conditions and in the presence of Janus Green B and Ca(2+) is mainly due to nuclear oxygen-dependent ATP synthesis. The stimulation of cellular ATP synthesis by glucose was completely inhibited by Janus Green B. 6. It is tentatively concluded that the stimulation of ATP synthesis in isolated cells by glucose, which is not found in isolated nuclei, represents mitochondrial ATP synthesis, and nuclear and mitochondrial ATP synthesis can then be studied differentially in the intact cell. The possibility is considered that oxygen-dependent nuclear ATP synthesis is not a general property of cell nuclei.

Catalytic Enantioselective Peroxidation of ?,?-Unsaturated Aldehydes for the Asymmetric Synthesis of Biologically Important Chiral Endoperoxides.

Project description:We have developed an unprecedented highly enantioselective catalytic peroxidation of enals. Critical to this development is the discovery that varying the structure of the hydroperoxide has a significant impact on the enantioselectivity of the organocatalytic asymmetric peroxidation. This novel transformation enabled the development of an enantioselective route toward the core structure shared by all members of the stolonoxide family of anticancer natural products, a connected trans-3,6-disubstituted-1,2-dioxane and trans-2,5-disubstituted-tetrahydrofuran ring system. Our route also features an unprecedented cyclization cascade of a chiral bis(epoxy)hydroperoxide. The new methodology and synthetic strategy established in this work should be applicable to the enantioselective synthesis of a broad range of chiral 1,2-dioxolanes and 1,2-dioxanes, thereby facilitating biological and medicinal chemistry studies of peroxy natural products.

Biomimetic α-selective ribosylation enables two-step modular synthesis of biologically important ADP-ribosylated peptides.

Project description:The α-type ADP-ribosylated peptides represent a class of important molecular tools in the field of protein ADP-ribosylation, however, they are difficult to access because of their inherent complicated structures and the lack of effective synthetic tools. In this paper, we present a biomimetic α-selective ribosylation reaction to synthesize a key intermediate, α-ADP-ribosyl azide, directly from native β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide in a clean ionic liquid system. This reaction in tandem with click chemistry then offers a two-step modular synthesis of α-ADP-ribosylated peptides. These syntheses can be performed open air in eppendorf tubes, without the need for specialized instruments or training. Importantly, we demonstrate that the synthesized α-ADP-ribosylated peptides show high binding affinity and desirable stability for enriching protein partners, and reactivity in post-stage poly ADP-ribosylations. Owing to their simple chemistry and multidimensional bio-applications, the presented methods may provide a powerful platform to produce general molecular tools for the study of protein ADP-ribosylation.

Adenosine Triphosphate-Sensitive Potassium Currents in Heart Disease and Cardioprotection.

Project description:The subunit makeup of the family of adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium channel (KATP) channels is more complex and labile than thought. The growing association of Kir6.1 and SUR2 variants with specific cardiovascular electrical and contractile derangements and the clear association with Cantu syndrome establish the importance of appropriate activity in normal function of the heart and vasculature. Further studies of such patients will reveal new mutations in KATP subunits and perhaps in proteins that regulate KATP synthesis, trafficking, or location, all of which may ultimately benefit therapeutically from the unique pharmacology of KATP channels.
