Model Systems for Flavoenzyme Activity: Relationships between Cofactor Structure, Binding and Redox Properties
摘要:
A series of flavins were synthesized bearing electron-withdrawing and -donating substituents. The electrochemical properties of these flavins in a nonpolar solvent were determined. The recognition of these flavins by a diamidopyridine (DAP) receptor and the effect this receptor has on flavin redox potential was also quantified. It was found that the DAP-flavin binding affinity and the reduction potentials (E-1/2) for both the DAP-bound and unbound flavins correlated well with functions derived from linear free energy relationships (LFERs). These results provide insight and predictive capability for the interplay of electronics and redox state-specific interactions for both abiotic and enzymatic systems.
受到大自然的启发并基于机理理解,我们设计了具有与 Li 相当的还原能力的脱氮黄素 (dFl),其通过独立于分子氧的连续光诱导电子转移 ( con PET) 机制发挥作用。通过将溴引入光催化剂而产生的内部重原子效应(IHAE)通过三重态自由基对显着增强了关键的三重态途径。此外,需要最佳浓度的牺牲电子供体(S sac )来绕过通过单重态自由基对的非生产性反应。

analyses indicated that conformationally restrained inhibitors demonstrated much improved QC inhibition in vitro compared to nonrestricted analogues, and several selected compounds demonstrated desirable therapeutic activity in an AD mouse model. The conformational analysis of a representative inhibitor indicated that the inhibitor appeared to maintain the Z-E conformation at the active site, as it

Selective functionalization of flavin analogues is desirable for property tuning but requires de novo synthesis. A synthetic strategy involving the introduction of a remote redox site followed by copper complexation turns an alloxazine and a flavin into redox-active structures and activates their aromatic ring for site-selective aromatic C−H functionalization. This unprecedented mechanism opens new
