Novobiocin is a natural product that binds the Hsp90 C-terminus and manifests Hsp90 inhibitory activity. Structural investigations on novobiocin led to the development of both anti-cancer and neuroprotective agents. The varied pharmacological activity manifested by these novobiocin analogs prompted the investigation of structure-function studies to identify these contradictory effects, which revealed that modifications to the amide side chain produce either anti-cancer or neuroprotective activity. Compounds that exhibit neuroprotective activity contain a short alkyl or cycloalkyl amide side chain. In contrast, anti-cancer agents contain five or more carbons, disrupt interactions between Hsp90α and Aha1, and induce the degradation of Hsp90-dependent client proteins.
新生霉素是一种天然产物,它与热休克蛋白90(Hsp90)的C端结合并表现出Hsp90抑制活性。对新生霉素的结构研究促成了抗癌和神经保护剂的开发。这些新生霉素类似物表现出的多种药理活性促使人们开展结构-功能研究以确定这些相互矛盾的作用,研究表明对酰胺侧链的修饰可产生抗癌或神经保护活性。具有神经保护活性的化合物含有短链烷基或环烷基酰胺侧链。相比之下,抗癌剂含有五个或更多碳原子,破坏Hsp90α与Aha1之间的相互作用,并诱导Hsp90依赖性客户蛋白的降解。
