Complete Stereoinversion of l-Tryptophan by a Fungal Single-Module Nonribosomal Peptide Synthetase
摘要:
Single-module nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) and NRPS-like enzymes activate and transform carboxylic acids in both primary and secondary metabolism and are of great interest due to their biocatalytic potentials. The single-module NRPS IvoA is essential for fungal pigment biosynthesis. Here, we show that IvoA catalyzes ATP-dependent unidirectional stereo inversion of L-tryptophan to D-tryptophan with complete conversion. While the stereoinversion is catalyzed by the epimerization (E) domain, the terminal condensation (C) domain stereoselectively hydrolyzes D-tryptophanyl-S-phosphopantetheine thioester and thus represents a noncanonical C domain function. Using IvoA, we demonstrate a biocatalytic stereoinversion/deracemization route to access a variety of substituted D-tryptophan analogs in high enantiomeric excess.
This present disclosure relates to compounds with ferroptosis inducing activity, a method of treating a subject with cancer with the compounds, and combination treatments with a second therapeutic agent.

Dithiocarbamates of various substituted tetrahydro-β-carbolines were synthesized and tested for hepatoprotective activity against carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) -induced liver damage in mice. Structure-activity relationships were investigated. Some neighboring group participation of the 3-substituent with the dithiocarbamate group appeared to be important for the manifestation of activity. The compounds (1a, 2a, and 3i) with hydrophilic substituents at the 3 poisition exhibited significant activity. Substitution at the 9 position of the 3-carboxylic acid (1a) lowered the activity.
