Abstract
Based on an X-ray structure of cyclomarin bound to ClpC1, a new conformationally fixed, bicyclic cyclomarin derivative is synthesized in an effort to enhance antituberculosis activity. The synthesis of the linear heptapeptide and the two macrolactamizations proceed smoothly. Only the very last synthetic step, the cleavage of a benzyl ether, provides a low yield. Despite the successful synthesis, the resulting bicyclic compound shows reduced activity compared to cyclomarin.
期刊介绍:
Quality research. Outstanding publications. With an impact factor of 3.124 (2019), ChemMedChem is a top journal for research at the interface of chemistry, biology and medicine. It is published on behalf of Chemistry Europe, an association of 16 European chemical societies.
ChemMedChem publishes primary as well as critical secondary and tertiary information from authors across and for the world. Its mission is to integrate the wide and flourishing field of medicinal and pharmaceutical sciences, ranging from drug design and discovery to drug development and delivery, from molecular modeling to combinatorial chemistry, from target validation to lead generation and ADMET studies. ChemMedChem typically covers topics on small molecules, therapeutic macromolecules, peptides, peptidomimetics, and aptamers, protein-drug conjugates, nucleic acid therapies, and beginning 2017, nanomedicine, particularly 1) targeted nanodelivery, 2) theranostic nanoparticles, and 3) nanodrugs.
