Enzymatic Formation of Indole-Containing Unnatural Cyclic Polyprenoids by Bacterial Squalene:Hopene Cyclase
摘要:
[GRAPHICS]Two indole-containing substrate analogues, in which a C-20 isoprene unit is connected to indole (3-(geranylgeranyl)indole and 3-(farnesyldimethylallyl)indole), were synthesized and tested for enzymatic cyclization by squalene:hopene cyclase from Alicyclobacillus acidocaidarius. Interestingly, 3-(geranylgeranyl)indole was not a substrate for the bacterial squalene cyclase, while 3-(farnesyldimethylallyl)indole was efficiently converted to a 2:1 mixture of unnatural novel products.
Synthesis of (6E)-8-Thia- and (14E)-13-Thia-2,3-oxidosqualene: Inhibitors of 2,3-Oxidosqualene-Lanosterol Cyclase
摘要:
Synthesis of (6E)-8-thia-2,3-oxidosqualene (22) and (14E)-13-thia-2,3-oxidosqualene (34) as inhibitors of 2,3-oxidosqualene-lanosterol cyclase are reported. Synthesis of 22 required the stereospecific generation of a vinyl sulfide. This was achieved by a new coupling of a benzenethiosulfonate (15) and a lithiated vinyl iodide (18). Synthesis of 34 involved similar coupling of benzenethiosulfonate 29 with lithium reagent obtained from vinyl iodide 33. The required (E)-vinyl iodides 18 and 33 were prepared by zirconium-catalyzed carboalumination of 4-pentyn-1-ol, (16) and 2,6-dimethyl-2(E),6(E)-dien-10-yne (32) respectively. Both 22 and 34 inhibited 2,3-oxidosqualene-lanosterol cyclase from Candida albicans with IC50 values of 0.68 and 45 mu M, respectively.

Enzymatic formation of pyrrole-containing novel cyclic polyprenoids by bacterial squalene:hopene cyclase
A convergent synthesis provided two pyrrole-containing squalene analogues, in which a C(20) isoprene unit is connected to pyrrole, 2-(geranylgeranyl)pyrrole and 2-(farnesyldimethylallyl)pyrrole. When incubated with recombinant squalene:hopene cyclase from Alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius, 2-(farnesyldimethylallyl)pyrrole wits enzymatically converted to a 10: 1 mixture of a tricyclic and a bicyclic unnatural novel polyprenoids, whereas 2-(geranylgeranyl)pyrrole was not a substrate for the enzyme.
