Potent, Small-Molecule Inhibitors of Human Mast Cell Tryptase. Antiasthmatic Action of a Dipeptide-Based Transition-State Analogue Containing a Benzothiazole Ketone
摘要:
Inhibitors of human mast cell tryptase (EC 3.4.21.59) have therapeutic potential for treating allergic or inflammatory disorders. We have investigated transition-state mimetics possessing a heterocycle-activated ketone group and identified in particular benzothiazole ketone (2S)-6 (RWJ-56423) as a potent, reversible, low-molecular-weight tryptase inhibitor with a K-i value of 10 nM. A single-crystal X-ray analysis of the sulfate salt of (2S)-6 confirmed the stereochemistry. Analogues 12 and 15-17 are also potent tryptase inhibitors. Although RWJ-56423 potently inhibits trypsin (K-i = 8.1 nM), it is selective vs other serine proteases, such as kallikrein, plasmin, and thrombin. We obtained an X-ray structure of (2S)-6 complexed with bovine trypsin (1.9-Angstrom resolution), which depicts inter alia a hemiketal involving Ser-189, and hydrogen bonds with His-57 and Gln-192. Aerosol administration of 6 (2R,2S; RWJ-58643) to allergic sheep effectively antagonized antigen-induced asthmatic responses, with 70-75% blockade of the early response and complete ablation of the late response and airway hyperresponsiveness.
The acidity difference of the amide rotamers has been revised for a large set ofN-acetyl amino acids.

The development of versatile and sustainable catalytic strategies for amide bond formation is a major objective for the pharmaceutical sector and the wider chemical industry. Herein, we report a biocatalytic approach to amidesynthesis which exploits the diversity of Nature's amide bond forming enzymes, N-acyltransferases (NATs) and CoA ligases (CLs). By selecting combinations of NATs and CLs with

There is provided a process for producing an optically active N-substituted azetidine-2-carboxylic acid compound represented by the formula (2):
by contacting a corresponding N-substituted azetidine-2-carboxylic acid ester of formula (2) with an enzyme derived from a microorganism selected from Arthrobacter SC-6-98-28 strain, Arthrobacter sp. ATCC21908 strain, Chromobacterium SC-YM-1 strain, and a mutant thereof. A process is also provided for preparing an optically active azetidine-2-carboxylic acid by eliminating the N-substituent of a N-substituted azetidine-2-carboxylic acid ester of formula (2).
