The conformationâactivity relationships for the biologically active polyketide, epothilone, have been determined. Computer-based molecular modeling and high field NMR techniques have provided the solution preferences for epothilones 1 and 2. For the C1âC8 polypropionate region, two conformational families, conformers 1 and 2, have been identified as having significant populations in polar and non-polar solvents. In the C11âC15 region, additional flexibility was observed and two local conformations have been identified as important, conformers 3 and 4. Epothilone analogues with altered conformational profiles have been designed and synthesized. Conformational analysis and the results of biological assays have been correlated to provide increased understanding of the biologically active conformation for the epothilone class of natural product. Conformationâactivity relationships have been shown to be an important complement to structureâactivity data.
生物活性聚酮化合物埃坡霉素的构象与活性关系已经确定。基于计算机的分子建模和高场核磁共振技术为埃坡霉素 1 和 2 提供了解决方案的选择。对于 C1-C8 聚丙酸酯区域,两个构象家族,即构象异构体 1 和 2,已被确定为在极性和非极性区域具有显着的群体。 -极性溶剂。在 C11-C15 区域,观察到额外的灵活性,并且已确定两个重要的局部构象,即构象异构体 3 和 4。已设计并合成了具有改变构象特征的埃坡霉素类似物。构象分析和生物测定结果相互关联,以加深对埃坡霉素类天然产物的生物活性构象的了解。构象-活性关系已被证明是结构-活性数据的重要补充。
