Identification from a Combinatorial Library of a Small Molecule that Selectively Induces Apoptosis in Cancer Cells
摘要:
The selective induction of death in cancer cells is a major challenge in modern medicine. In this communication we describe the synthesis of an 88-membered combinatorial library, and the subsequent evaluation of these compounds for their ability to selectively induce apoptosis in cancerous cells. A compound was identified from the library that induces apoptosis in U-937 and HL-60 cell lines. This compound is a remarkably selective pro-apoptotic agent for these cancer cell lines, as it does not induce significant death in noncancerous white blood cells, even at concentrations as high as 1000 muM.

Chiral 1,2‐aminoalcohols are widely represented in biologically active compounds from neurotransmitters to antivirals. While many synthetic methods have been developed for accessing aminoalcohols, the direct aminohydroxylation of alkenes to unprotected, enantioenriched aminoalcohols remains a challenge. Using directed evolution, we have engineered a hemoprotein biocatalyst based on a thermostable

It's in the water! A new coppertertiaryaminecomplex was prepared and applied in asymmetric Henryreactions in water and in the short synthesis of (S)‐N‐trans‐feruloyl octopamine. This catalytic system provided an approach to the enantioselectiveHenryreaction of aldehydes with hydroxyl substituents (see graphic).

The applicability of the recent published bienzymatic protocol for the synthesis of (R)-2-amino-1-phenylethanol was tested using L-threonine aldolase from Pseudomonas putida and l-tyrosine decarboxylase from either Enterococcus faecalis (Efa) or two genes from Enterococcus faecium (Efi1, Efi2). In all 21 benzaldehyde derivatives were applied for an initial TLC screening. On a small scale, octopamine

(SEP-363856) is a trace-amine associatedreceptor1 (TAAR1) agonist with 5-HT1A receptor agonist activity in Phase 3 clinical development, with FDA Breakthrough Therapy Designation, for the treatment of schizophrenia. TAAR1 is a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that is expressed in cortical, limbic, and midbrain monoaminergic regions. It is activated by endogenous traceamines, and is believed to play

The invention relates to a process for the preparation of an enantiomerically enriched β-amino alcohol, wherein glycine or a glycine salt and an aldehyde are reacted in the presence of a threonine aldolase and a decarboxylase to form the corresponding enantiomerically enriched β-aminoalcohol, and wherein at least either the threonine aldolase or the decarboxylase is β-selective. In a preferred embodiment of the invention at least either the threonine aldolase or the decarboxylase is enantioselective.
