Encoded Library Synthesis Using Chemical Ligation and the Discovery of sEH Inhibitors from a 334-Million Member Library
نویسندگان
چکیده
A chemical ligation method for construction of DNA-encoded small-molecule libraries has been developed. Taking advantage of the ability of the Klenow fragment of DNA polymerase to accept templates with triazole linkages in place of phosphodiesters, we have designed a strategy for chemically ligating oligonucleotide tags using cycloaddition chemistry. We have utilized this strategy in the construction and selection of a small molecule library, and successfully identified inhibitors of the enzyme soluble epoxide hydrolase.

Design, synthesis and selection of DNA-encoded small-molecule libraries.
Biochemical combinatorial techniques such as phage display, RNA display and oligonucleotide aptamers have proven to be reliable methods for generation of ligands to protein targets. Adapting these techniques to small synthetic molecules has been a long-sought goal. We report the synthesis and interrogation of an 800-million-member DNA-encoded library in which small molecules are covalently atta...
متن کاملDiscovery of small molecule inhibitors of protein-protein interactions using DNA- encoded chemical libraries
Discovery of small molecule inhibitors of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) has been limited due to technological hurdles. Here we present the discovery of small molecule (MW< 500 Da) inhibitors of PPIs with IC50 in the μM range from a 2 million compound DNA-encoded chemical library. The screening of the library was performed using a recently developed homogenous binding assay. This format av...
متن کاملDesign, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of 4-Benzamidobenzoic Acid Hydrazide Derivatives as Novel Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase Inhibitors
Inhibitors of soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) represent one of the novel pharmaceutical approaches for treating hypertension, vascular inflammation, pain and other cardiovascular related diseases. Most of the potent sEH inhibitors reported in literature often suffer from poor solubility and bioavailability. Toward improving pharmacokinetic profile beside favorable potency, two series of 4-benza...
متن کاملUniversal strategies for the DNA-encoding of libraries of small molecules using the chemical ligation of oligonucleotide tags
The affinity-mediated selection of large libraries of DNA-encoded small molecules is increasingly being used to initiate drug discovery programs. We present universal methods for the encoding of such libraries using the chemical ligation of oligonucleotides. These methods may be used to record the chemical history of individual library members during combinatorial synthesis processes. We demons...
متن کاملAssessment of "drug-likeness" of a small library of natural products using chemoinformatics
Even though natural products has an excellent record as a source for new drugs, the advent of ultrahigh-throughput screening and large-scale combinatorial synthetic methods, has caused a decline in the use of natural products research in the pharmaceutical industry. This is due to the efficiency in generating and screening a high number of synthetic combinatorial compounds; whereas traditional ...
