Identifying Oxacillinase-48 Carbapenemase Inhibitors Using DNA-Encoded Chemical Libraries.

ABSTRACT: Bacterial resistance to β-lactam antibiotics is largely mediated by β-lactamases, which catalyze the hydrolysis of these drugs and continue to emerge in response to antibiotic use. β-Lactamases that hydrolyze the last resort carbapenem class of β-lactam antibiotics (carbapenemases) are a growing global health threat. Inhibitors have been developed to prevent β-lactamase-mediated hydrolysis and restore the efficacy of these antibiotics. However, there are few inhibitors available for problematic carbapenemases such as oxacillinase-48 (OXA-48). A DNA-encoded chemical library approach was used to rapidly screen for compounds that bind and potentially inhibit OXA-48. Using this approach, a hit compound, CDD-97, was identified with submicromolar potency (K_i = 0.53 ± 0.08 μM) against OXA-48. X-ray crystallography showed that CDD-97 binds noncovalently in the active site of OXA-48. Synthesis and testing of derivatives of CDD-97 revealed structure-activity relationships and informed the design of a compound with a 2-fold increase in potency. CDD-97, however, synergizes poorly with β-lactam antibiotics to inhibit the growth of bacteria expressing OXA-48 due to poor accumulation into E. coli. Despite the low in vivo activity, CDD-97 provides new insights into OXA-48 inhibition and demonstrates the potential of using DNA-encoded chemistry technology to rapidly identify β-lactamase binders and to study β-lactamase inhibition, leading to clinically useful inhibitors.

Automated screening for small organic ligands using DNA-encoded chemical libraries.

Project description:DNA-encoded chemical libraries (DECLs) are collections of organic compounds that are individually linked to different oligonucleotides, serving as amplifiable identification barcodes. As all compounds in the library can be identified by their DNA tags, they can be mixed and used in affinity-capture experiments on target proteins of interest. In this protocol, we describe the screening process that allows the identification of the few binding molecules within the multiplicity of library members. First, the automated affinity selection process physically isolates binding library members. Second, the DNA codes of the isolated binders are PCR-amplified and subjected to high-throughput DNA sequencing. Third, the obtained sequencing data are evaluated using a C++ program and the results are displayed using MATLAB software. The resulting selection fingerprints facilitate the discrimination of binding from nonbinding library members. The described procedures allow the identification of small organic ligands to biological targets from a DECL within 10 d.

Navigating the DNA encoded libraries chemical space.

Project description:DNA-encoded library (DEL) technology is a novel ligand identification strategy that allows the synthesis and screening of unprecedented chemical diversity more efficiently than conventional methods. However, no reports have been published to systematically study how to increase the diversity and improve the molecular property space that can be covered with DEL. This report describes the development and application of eDESIGNER, an algorithm that comprehensively generates all possible library designs, enumerates and profiles samples from each library and evaluates them to select the libraries to be synthesized. This tool utilizes suitable on-DNA chemistries and available building blocks to design and identify libraries with a pre-defined molecular weight distribution and maximal diversity compared with compound collections from other sources.

Universal encoding of next generation DNA-encoded chemical libraries.

Project description:DNA-encoded chemical libraries (DELs) are useful tools for the discovery of small molecule ligands to protein targets of pharmaceutical interest. Compared with single-pharmacophore DELs, dual-pharmacophore DELs simultaneously display two chemical moieties on both DNA strands, and allow for the construction of highly diverse and pure libraries, with a potential for targeting larger protein surfaces. Although methods for the encoding of simple, fragment-like dual-display libraries have been established, more complex libraries require a different encoding strategy. Here, we present a robust and convenient "large encoding design" (LED), which facilitates the PCR-amplification of multiple codes distributed among two partially complementary DNA strands. We experimentally implemented multiple coding regions and we compared the new DNA encoding scheme with previously reported dual-display DEL modalities in terms of amplifiability and performance in test selections against two target proteins. With the LED methodology in place, we foresee the construction and screening of DELs of unprecedented sizes and designs.

DNA-encoded chemical libraries yield non-covalent and non-peptidic SARS-CoV-2 main protease inhibitors.

Project description:The development of SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) inhibitors for the treatment of COVID-19 has mostly benefitted from X-ray structures and preexisting knowledge of inhibitors; however, an efficient method to generate Mpro inhibitors, which circumvents such information would be advantageous. As an alternative approach, we show here that DNA-encoded chemistry technology (DEC-Tec) can be used to discover inhibitors of Mpro. An affinity selection of a 4-billion-membered DNA-encoded chemical library (DECL) using Mpro as bait produces novel non-covalent and non-peptide-based small molecule inhibitors of Mpro with low nanomolar Ki values. Furthermore, these compounds demonstrate efficacy against mutant forms of Mpro that have shown resistance to the standard-of-care drug nirmatrelvir. Overall, this work demonstrates that DEC-Tec can efficiently generate novel and potent inhibitors without preliminary chemical or structural information.

Combining pharmacophore models derived from DNA-encoded chemical libraries with structure-based exploration to predict Tankyrase 1 inhibitors.

Project description:DNA-encoded chemical libraries (DECLs) interrogate the interactions of a target of interest with vast numbers of molecules. DECLs hence provide abundant information about the chemical ligand space for therapeutic targets, and there is considerable interest in methods for exploiting DECL screening data to predict novel ligands. Here we introduce one such approach and demonstrate its feasibility using the cancer-related poly-(ADP-ribose)transferase tankyrase 1 (TNKS1) as a model target. First, DECL affinity selections resulted in structurally diverse TNKS1 inhibitors with high potency including compound 2 with an IC50 value of 0.8 nM. Additionally, TNKS1 hits from four DECLs were translated into pharmacophore models, which were exploited in combination with docking-based screening to identify TNKS1 ligand candidates in databases of commercially available compounds. This computational strategy afforded TNKS1 inhibitors that are outside the chemical space covered by the DECLs and yielded the drug-like lead compound 12 with an IC50 value of 22 nM. The study further provided insights in the reliability of screening data and the effect of library design on hit compounds. In particular, the study revealed that while in general DECL screening data are in good agreement with off-DNA ligand binding, unpredictable interactions of the DNA-attachment linker with the target protein contribute to the noise in the affinity selection data.

On-DNA Transfer Hydrogenolysis and Hydrogenation for the Synthesis of DNA-Encoded Chemical Libraries.

Project description:DNA-encoded libraries (DELs) are an increasingly popular approach to finding small molecule ligands for proteins. Many DEL synthesis protocols hinge on sequential additions of monomers using split-pool combinatorial methods. Therefore, compatible protecting group strategies that allow the unmasking of reactive functionality (e. g. amines and alcohols) prior to monomer coupling, or the removal of less desirable functionality (e. g., alkenes and alkynes) are highly desirable. Hydrogenation/hydrogenolysis procedures would achieve these ends but have not been amenable to DEL chemistry. We report a catalytic hydrogen transfer reaction using Pd/C, HCONH4 and the micelle-forming surfactant, TPGS-750-M, which gives highly efficient conversions for hydrogenolysis of Cbz-protected amines and benzyl protected alcohols and hydrogenation of nitros, halides, nitriles, aldehydes, alkenes and alkynes. Application to multicycle synthesis of an encoded compound was fully compatible with DNA-amplification and sequencing, demonstrating its applicability to DEL synthesis. This method will enable synthetic DEL sequences using orthogonal protecting groups.

Stereo- and regiodefined DNA-encoded chemical libraries enable efficient tumour-targeting applications.

Project description:The encoding of chemical compounds with amplifiable DNA tags facilitates the discovery of small-molecule ligands for proteins. To investigate the impact of stereo- and regiochemistry on ligand discovery, we synthesized a DNA-encoded library of 670,752 derivatives based on 2-azido-3-iodophenylpropionic acids. The library was selected against multiple proteins and yielded specific ligands. The selection fingerprints obtained for a set of protein targets of pharmaceutical relevance clearly showed the preferential enrichment of ortho-, meta- or para-regioisomers, which was experimentally verified by affinity measurements in the absence of DNA. The discovered ligands included novel selective enzyme inhibitors and binders to tumour-associated antigens, which enabled conditional chimeric antigen receptor T-cell activation and tumour targeting.

Modular assembly and encoding strategies for dual-display DNA-encoded chemical libraries.

Project description:DNA-encoded chemical libraries (DELs) are increasingly being used for the discovery of protein ligands and can be constructed displaying either one or two molecules at the extremities of the two complementary DNA strands. Here, we describe that DELs, featuring the simultaneous display of two molecules, can be encoded using various types of DNA structures, which go beyond the use of conventional double-stranded DNA fragments. Specifically, we compared dual-display methodologies in hairpin, circular or linear formats in terms of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplifiability and performance in affinity capture selections. The methods reported in this article highlight the feasibility and modularity of the described encoding strategies and may thus further expand the scope of DNA-encoded chemistry, particularly for the identification of compounds which recognize adjacent epitopes on the surface of target proteins of interest.

Homogeneous and Functional Group Tolerant Ring-Closing Metathesis for DNA-Encoded Chemical Libraries.

Project description:Reaction heterogeneity, poor pH control, and catalyst decomposition in the ring-closing metathesis (RCM) of DNA-chemical conjugates lead to poor yields of the cyclized products. Herein we address these issues with a RCM reaction system that includes a novel aqueous solvent combination to enable reaction homogeneity, an acidic buffer system which masks traditionally problematic functional groups, and a decomposition-resistant catalyst which maximizes conversion to the cyclized product. Additionally, we provide a systematic study of the substrate scope of the on-DNA RCM reaction, a demonstration of its applicability to a single-substrate DNA-encoded chemical library that includes sequencing analysis, and the first successful stapling of an unprotected on-DNA [i, i+4] peptide.

Screening of copper and palladium-mediated reactions compatible with DNA-encoded chemical libraries.

Project description:The construction of DNA-encoded chemical libraries (DECLs) crucially relies on the availability of chemical reactions, which are DNA-compatible and which exhibit high conversion rates for a large number of diverse substrates. In this work, we present our optimization and validation procedures for three copper and palladium-catalyzed reactions (Suzuki cross-coupling, Sonogashira cross-coupling and copper(I)-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition (CuAAC)), which have been successfully used by our group for the construction of large encoded libraries.
