potent and selective inhibitors for uncharacterized serine hydrolases and its application to the brain-enriched enzyme α/β-hydrolase-6. We anticipate that the methods described herein will facilitate the development of selective chemical probes to annotate the metabolic and (patho)physiological functions of many of the uncharacterized serine hydrolases that currently populate eukaryotic and prokaryotic
水解酶构成自然界中最大和最多样化的蛋白质类别之一,并且在几乎所有生理和病理过程中都发挥着关键作用。哺乳动物丝氨酸水解酶超家族包含大量未表征的成员,其中至少 40-50% 的酶缺乏经过实验验证的内源性底物和产物。将代谢和细胞功能分配给这些酶需要开发药理学工具来选择性地干扰它们的活性。我们在此描述了一种功能蛋白质组学策略,以系统地开发用于未表征的丝氨酸水解酶的有效和选择性抑制剂及其在大脑富集酶 α/β-水解酶-6 中的应用。
