Identification of the subtype-selective Sirt5 inhibitor balsalazide through systematic SAR analysis and rationalization via theoretical investigations
摘要:
We report here an extensive structure-activity relationship study of balsalazide, which was previously identified in a high-throughput screening as an inhibitor of Sirt5. To get a closer understanding why this compound is able to inhibit Sirt5, we initially performed docking experiments comparing the binding mode of a succinylated peptide as the natural substrate and balsalazide with Sirt5 in the presence of NAD(+). Based on the evidence gathered here, we designed and synthesized 13 analogues of balsalazide, in which single functional groups were either deleted or slightly altered to investigate which of them are mandatory for high inhibitory activity. Our study confirms that balsalazide with all its given functional groups is an inhibitor of Sirt5 in the low micromolar concentration range and structural modifications presented in this study did not increase potency. While changes on the N-aroyl-beta-alanine side chain eliminated potency, the introduction of a truncated salicylic acid part minimally altered potency. Calculations of the associated reaction paths showed that the inhibition potency is very likely dominated by the stability of the inhibitor-enzyme complex and not the type of inhibition (covalent vs. non-covalent). Further in-vitro characterization in a trypsin coupled assay determined that the tested inhibitors showed no competition towards NAD(+) or the synthetic substrate analogue ZKsA. In addition, investigations for subtype selectivity revealed that balsalazide is a subtype-selective Sirt5 inhibitor, and our initial SAR and docking studies pave the way for further optimization.

Synthesis of the tetra‐α isomer of a meso‐azobenzene‐extended calix[4]pyrrole and photo‐irradiation of the all‐trans receptor induces the isomerization of its azobenzene units, producing a mixture enriched with the cis‐counterpart. Its interaction with electron‐rich molecular guests (neutral and anionic) was probed using 1H NMR spectroscopic titrations and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC).

Hydroxyaryl alkyl ketones with functionalized alkyl chains often fail to produce the corresponding tetra-α calix[4]pyrroles in Brönsted acid mediated condensations with pyrrole. A remarkable effect exerted by the addition of methyltrialkylammonium chloride during the acid-mediated syntheses of a series of meso-(tetrahydroxyaryl)-meso-tetraalkylcalix[4]pyrroles featuring alkyl terminal chloro or ester

alkyl iodides into reactive alkyl radicals is described. Aryl diazonium salts react with Hantzsch esters and molecular oxygen to give aryl radicals, which participate in halogen atom transfers to give alkyl radicals. These intermediates react with a variety of acceptors. The reaction cascade occurs at room temperature, in open reaction vessels, with short reaction times.
We describe the syntheses of the lipophilic aryl‐extended α,α,α,α‐tetraurea‐phenyl‐calix[4]pyrrole 1, featuring four appended azo‐phenyl groups with two tert‐butoxy carbonyl meta‐substituents and its photo‐inactive counterpart 2. In CD2Cl2 solutions, both tetraurea‐calix[4]pyrroles self‐assemble into dimeric capsules by encapsulating one molecule of a suitable bis‐N‐oxide or two molecules of a mono‐N‐oxide

A chemoselective Pd-mediated carbonylative Negishi-type catalytic protocol for the synthesis of (hetero)aryl ketones is reported. The protocol employs the PEPPSI-IPr precatalyst and CO gas at atmospheric pressure (balloon) to foster the carbonylative couplingbetween diverse C(sp3)-hybridized organozinc reagents and a broad range of aryl iodides, including substrates carrying aldehyde, aniline, phenol
