Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1), a widely explored anticancer drug target, plays an important role in single-strand DNA break repair processes. High-throughput virtual screening (HTVS) of a Maybridge small molecule library using the PARP1-benzimidazole-4-carboxamide co-crystal structure and pharmacophore model led to the identification of eleven compounds. These compounds were evaluated using recombinant PARP1 enzyme assay that resulted in the acquisition of three PARP1 inhibitors: 3 (IC = 12 μM), 4 (IC = 5.8 μM), and 10 (IC = 0.88 μM). Compound 4 (2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxine-5-carboxamide) was selected as a lead and was subjected to further chemical modifications, involving analogue synthesis and scaffold hopping. These efforts led to the identification of (Z)-2-(4-hydroxybenzylidene)-3-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[b][1,4]oxazine-8-carboxamide (49, IC = 0.082 μM) as the most potent inhibitor of PARP1 from the series.
聚(ADP-核糖)聚合酶 1(PARP1)是一种广泛研究的抗癌药物靶点,在单链 DNA 断裂修复过程中发挥重要作用。使用 PARP1-苯并咪唑-4-甲酰胺共晶结构和药效团模型对 Maybridge 小分子文库进行高通量虚拟筛选(HTVS),鉴定出 11 种化合物。这些化合物通过重组 PARP1 酶测定进行评估,得到了三种 PARP1 抑制剂:3(IC=12 μM)、4(IC=5.8 μM)和 10(IC=0.88 μM)。化合物 4(2,3-二氢-1,4-苯并二恶烷-5-甲酰胺)被选为先导化合物,并进行了进一步的化学修饰,包括类似物合成和支架跳跃。这些努力确定了(Z)-2-(4-羟基苄基)-3-氧代-3,4-二氢-2H-苯并[b][1,4]恶嗪-8-甲酰胺(49,IC=0.082 μM)作为该系列中 PARP1 最强的抑制剂。
