Influence of ring size in conformationally restricted ring I analogs of paromomycin on antiribosomal and antibacterial activity.

ABSTRACT: In order to further investigate the importance of the conformation of the ring I side chain in aminoglycoside antibiotic binding to the ribosomal target several derivatives of paromomycin were designed with conformationally locked side chains. By changing the size of the appended ring between O-4' and C-6' used to restrict the motion of the side chain, the position of the C-6' hydroxy group was fine tuned to probe for the optimal conformation for inhibition of the ribosome. While the changes in orientation of the 6'-hydroxy group cannot be completely dissociated from the size and hydrophobicity of the conformation-restricting ring, overall, it is apparent that the preferred conformation of the ring I side chain for interaction with A1408 in the decoding A site of the bacterial ribosome is an ideal gt conformation, which results in the highest antimicrobial activity as well as increased selectivity for bacterial over eukaryotic ribosomes.

Project description:BACKGROUND:CB1 cannabinoid receptors are G-protein coupled receptors for endocannabinoids including anandamide and 2-arachidonoylglycerol. Because these arachidonic acid metabolites possess a 20-carbon polyene chain as the alkyl terminal moiety, they are highly flexible with the potential to adopt multiple biologically relevant conformations, particularly those in a bent form. To better understand the molecular interactions associated with binding and steric trigger mechanisms of receptor activation, a series of conformationally-restricted anandamide analogs having a wide range of affinity and efficacy were evaluated. RESULTS:A CB1 receptor model was constructed to include the extracellular loops, particularly extracellular loop 2 which possesses an internal disulfide linkage. Using both Glide (Schrödinger) and Affinity (Accelrys) docking programs, binding conformations of six anandamide analogs were identified that conform to rules applicable to the potent, efficacious and stereoselective non-classical cannabinoid CP55244. Calculated binding energies of the optimum structures from both procedures correlated well with the reported binding affinity values. The most potent and efficacious of the ligands adopted conformations characterized by interactions with both the helix-3 lysine and hydrophobic residues that interact with CP55244. The other five compounds formed fewer or less energetically favorable interactions with these critical residues. The flexibility of the tested anandamide analogs, measured by torsion angles around the benzene as well as the stretch between side chain moieties, could contribute to the differences in ability to interact with the CB1 receptor. CONCLUSION:Analyses of multiple poses of conformationally-restricted anandamide analogs permitted identification of favored amino acid interactions within the CB1 receptor binding pocket. A ligand possessing both high affinity and cannabinoid agonist efficacy was able to interact with both polar and hydrophobic interaction sites utilized by the potent and efficacious non-classical cannabinoid CP55940. In contrast, other analogs characterized by reduced affinity or efficacy exhibited less favorable interactions with those key residues.
