Synthesis and SAR of α-Acylaminoketone ligands for control of gene expression
摘要:
A lead discovery library and a follow-up focused library of alpha-acylaminoketones were designed based on known dibenzoylhydrazine ecdysone agonists, including GS(TM)-E. The compounds were assayed in mammalian cells expressing the ecdysone receptor from Bombyx mori for their ability to cause expression of a reporter gene downstream of an ecdysone response element. The most potent alpha-acylaminoketones were comparable to GS(TM)-E in this assay. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
