Publication number: 20200181095Abstract: We describe the use of comparative structural analysis and structure-guided molecular design to develop potent and selective inhibitors (10d and (S)-17b) of matrix metalloproteinase 13 (MMP-13). We applied a three-step process, starting with a comparative analysis of the X-ray crystallographic structure of compound 5 in complex with MMP-13 with published structures of known MMP-13 inhibitor complexes followed by molecular design and synthesis of potent, but non-selective zinc-chelating MMP inhibitors (e.g., 10a and 10b). After demonstrating that the pharmacophores of the chelating inhibitors (S)-10a, (R)-10a, and 10b were binding within the MMP-13 active site, the Zn2+ chelating unit was replaced with non-chelating polar residues that bridged over the Zn2+ binding site and reach into a solvent accessible area.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 6, 2018Publication date: June 11, 2020Applicants: Florida Atlantic University Board of Trustees, The Scripps Research InstituteInventors: Gregg B.
