compound 1 has resulted in the identification of a potent and selective Candida albicans N-myristoyltransferase (CaNmt) inhibitor RO-09-4609, which exhibits antifungal activity against C. albicans in vitro. Further modification of its C-2 substituent has led to the discovery of RO-09-4879, which exhibits antifungal activity in vivo. The drug design is based on X-ray crystal analysis of a CaNmt complex
前导化合物1的C-4侧链修饰已导致鉴定出有效的和选择性的白色念珠菌N-肉豆蔻酰转移酶(CaNmt)抑制剂RO-09-4609,它在体外对白色念珠菌具有抗真菌活性。其C-2取代基的进一步修饰导致发现RO-09-4879,它在体内具有抗真菌活性。药物设计基于CaNmt与苯并呋喃衍生物4a的复合物的X射线晶体分析。优化过程包括各种生物学研究,包括拟体内试验和药代动力学研究。详细描述了RO-09-4879的计算机辅助药物设计,合成,构效关系和生物学特性。
