Small Molecule Colorimetric Probes for Specific Detection of Human Arylamine N-Acetyltransferase 1, a Potential Breast Cancer Biomarker
摘要:
The identification, synthesis, and evaluation of a series of naphthoquinone derivatives as selective inhibitors of human arylamine N-acetyltransferase 1 and mouse arylamine N-acetyltransferase 2 are described. The compounds undergo a distinctive color change (red -> blue) upon binding to these human and mouse NAT isoenzymes driven by a proton transfer event. No color change is observed in the presence of functionally distinct but highly similar isoenzymes which are >70% identical. These molecules may be used as sensors to detect the presence of human NAT1 in cell lysates.

The invention provides 1,4-quinones, 1,4-naphthoquinones and their sulphur analogues as inhibitors of hNAT1, an enzyme which is both a diagnostic marker and drug target for breast cancer. Some of the compounds of the invention are also chromogenic in the presence of hNAT1. The compounds of the invention are used for detecting for and/or measuring hNAT1 and for inhibiting hNAT1 in the treatment of disease.
