The enoyl acyl-carrier protein reductase (ENR) enzyme is harbored within the apicoplast of apicomplexan parasites providing a significant challenge for drug delivery, which may be overcome through the addition of transductive peptides, which facilitates crossing the apicoplast membranes. The binding site of triclosan, a potent ENR inhibitor, is occluded from the solvent making the attachment of these linkers challenging. Herein, we have produced 3 new triclosan analogs with bulky A- and B-ring motifs, which protrude into the solvent allowing for the future attachment of molecular transporters for delivery.
烯酰基辅酶 A 还原酶(ENR)酶存在于顶复门寄生虫的质体中,这给药物输送带来了重大挑战,通过添加转导肽可以克服这一挑战,转导肽有助于穿过质体膜。三氯生是一种有效的 ENR 抑制剂,其结合位点被溶剂掩盖,使得这些接头的连接变得具有挑战性。在此,我们生成了 3 种带有大 A-和 B-环结构的新型三氯生类似物,这些结构突出到溶剂中,为未来用于输送的分子转运体的附着提供了可能。
