Definitions

  • the present invention is related to new chemical compounds and the use of said compounds for the manufacture of medicaments.
  • Cell proliferation is a prerequisite for any form of life which is based on cells.
  • Cell proliferation i. e. increasing the cell number starting from a limited number of cells, is thus relevant for any monocellular and multicellular organism.
  • Cell proliferation as such is a process which is highly regulated by the cell.
  • Cell proliferation under circumstances which are not favourable to support the life of the proliferating cell has to be avoided from the biological point of view.
  • To allow the survival of the cell complex regulation systems including sensoring mechanisms were developed in the evolution of life.
  • multicellular organisms have to control cell proliferation in order to maintain the highly organized interaction of the cells forming the body of the multicellular organism. Any deregulation of cell proliferation represents or results in a pathological condition. Deregulated cell proliferation is the cause for a number of diseases, including the class of diseases generally referred to as cancer.

Abstract

The present invention is related to compounds having the formula (I), wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, X1, X2, T, U, V, W, Y and n are as defined in the claims, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds and the use of the compounds for manufacturing a medicament for the use in the treatment of diseases involving an abnormal cell proliferation, an undesired cell proliferation, an abnormal mitosis and/or an undesired mitosis, the disease being selected from neurodegenerative diseases, stroke, inflammatory diseases, immune based disorders, infectious diseases, heart diseases, cardiovascular diseases and cell proliferative diseases.

Description

Chemical compounds for the inhibition of undesired cell proliferation and use thereof
The present invention is related to new chemical compounds and the use of said compounds for the manufacture of medicaments.
Cell proliferation is a prerequisite for any form of life which is based on cells. Cell proliferation, i. e. increasing the cell number starting from a limited number of cells, is thus relevant for any monocellular and multicellular organism. Cell proliferation as such is a process which is highly regulated by the cell. Cell proliferation under circumstances which are not favourable to support the life of the proliferating cell has to be avoided from the biological point of view. To allow the survival of the cell complex regulation systems including sensoring mechanisms were developed in the evolution of life.
Apart from the mere increase in biomass of monocellular and multicellular organisms, multicellular organisms have to control cell proliferation in order to maintain the highly organized interaction of the cells forming the body of the multicellular organism. Any deregulation of cell proliferation represents or results in a pathological condition. Deregulated cell proliferation is the cause for a number of diseases, including the class of diseases generally referred to as cancer.
Taken the multiplicity of biological processes where cell proliferation has to be controlled, there is a need in the art to provide compounds which are suitable to control cell proliferation. The problem underlying the present invention is thus to provide new compounds which are effective in inhibiting cell proliferation, more particularly undesired cell proliferation.
In a first aspect the problem underlying the present invention is solved by a compound having the structure of formula (I)

As used herein in connection with an embodiment of the various aspects of the present invention the term "each and individually absent" refers to two or more atoms, groups, substituents, moieties or whatsoever and describes that the single atom, group etc. mentioned can be absent regardless whether any of the other atoms, groups etc. mentioned is absent. The wording used is a truncation which avoids unnecessary repetition as otherwise for each of the atoms, groups etc. the fact that it may be absent in an embodiment of the invention would have to be repeated.
In connection with the present invention some groups such as, e.g., -(CR4R5)- or -(CR33R34)- are repeated, i.e. are repeatedly present in a compound according to the present invention. Typically such repetition occurs in such a manner that, e.g., -(CR4R5)- is repeated one or several times. In case, e.g., -(CR4R5)- is repeated one time which means that there are two consecutive groups of -(CR4R5)-, these two forms of -(CR4R5)- can be either the same or they may be different in a different embodiment which means that either R4 or R5 or both of them are different between said two -(CR4R5)- groups. If there are three or more of these groups such as, e.g., -(CR4R5)-, it is possible that all of them are different or only some or different whereas others are the same in the sense defined above. Any permutation for the arrangement for such identical or different groups is within the present invention.
It is to be acknowledged and within the present invention that any radical, group, moiety or substituent as used herein can be linked or inserted in any orientation into any of the respective formulae or compounds disclosed or described herein.

As used herein in connection with an embodiment of the various aspects of the present invention the term referring to a group, substituent, moiety, spacer or the like specifying that it "can be inserted in any orientation into any of the preceding formulae" means that the group etc. can be attached to another atom, group, substitutent, moiety spacer or the like of any of the compounds according to the present invention or any of the formulae disclosed herein via any of its ends an in particular through any of the atoms arranged at the ends of said group, substituent, moiety, spacer or the like.
It is to be understood that the term group as used herein in preferred embodiments, is also to mean radical and/or diradical or any further radical having more than two free valences. It will be acknowledged by the ones skilled in the art that the various radicals or groups are linked, preferably covalently linked, to another radical, group, component or moiety of the compound. Therefore, it is appropriate to understand that such groups are regarded as radicals. It will also acknowledged that a radical an, in principle, have either one, two, three or four free valences in case of a carbon atom, for binding to or with other such radicals, groups, compounds or moieties. It is also acknowledged by the ones skilled in the art that the number of free valences thus provided defines the number of radicals with which the first radical can form a covalent bonding. For example, if Z is O which is a diradical, Z is a diradical which can bind only to other such groups, which means that in this particular example either T and W are absent with n being 0, or V, TJ, and R being absent. The term "phospho protecting group" preferably refers to a biolabile phosphate and/or phosphonate protecting group radical as known by the person skilled in the art and, e. g., described in Schultz, Bioorg. Med. Chem. 2003, 885-898; Zemlicka, Biochim. Biophys. Acta 2002, 1587, 276-286; Tan et al., Adv. Drug. Deliv. Rev. 1999, 117-151; Shaw et al., Pharm. Res. 1997, 14, 1824-1829; Serafinowska et al., J.

In a further aspect the present invention is related to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound according to any of the aspects of the present invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent or excipient.
In an embodiment the composition comprises a further pharmaceutically active compound, preferably such further pharmaceutically active compound is a chemotherapeutic agent.
In a preferred embodiment of the composition the compound is present as a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or a pharmaceutically active solvate.
In an even more preferred embodiment the pharmaceutically active compound is either alone or in combination with any of the ingredients of the composition present in a multitude of individualized dosages and/or administration forms.
In a further aspect the present invention is related to the use of the compounds according to the present invention as a medicament and for the manufacture of a medicament, respectively. It is to be understood that any of the compounds according to the present invention can be used for the treatment of or for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of any of the diseases disclosed herein, irrespective of the mode of action or the causative agent involved as may be specified herein. Of course, it may particularly be used for any form of such disease where the particular causative agent is involved. Causative agent as used herein also means any agent which is observed in connection with the particular disease described and such agent is not necessarily causative in the sense that is causes the observed diseases or diseased condition.
In an embodiment the medicament is for the treatment or prevention of a disease, whereby the disease may, from a mechanistical point of view, involve an undesired cell proliferation.
This use of the compounds according to the present invention is based on the fact that the compounds according to the present invention are suitable to inhibit undesired cell proliferation. Undesired cell proliferation comprises the undesired cell proliferation of procaryotic cells as well as undesired cell proliferation of eucaryotic cells. The term undesired cell proliferation also covers the phenomenon of abnormal cell proliferation, abnormal mitosis and/or undesired mitosis. Abnormal cell proliferation means any form of cell proliferation which occurs in a manner different from normal cell proliferation. Normal cell proliferation is a cell proliferation observed under normal circumstances by the majority of cells and organisms, respectively. The same basic definition applies to abnormal mitosis.
More particularly, undesired cell proliferation and undesired mitosis mean a proliferation and a mitosis, respectively, which may be either a normal or an abnormal cell proliferation, however, in any case it is not a cell proliferation or mitosis which is desired. Desired may thus be defined by an individual such as a human being and in particular a physician, and defined within certain boundaries whereby the boundaries as such may reflect the extent of proliferation and mitosis, respectively, observed under usual conditions or in the majority of cells and organisms, respectively, or may be arbitrarily fixed or defined. Cell proliferation as used herein refers preferably to the proliferation of cells forming the organism to be treated or to which a compound according to the present invention shall be administered which is also referred to herein as the first organism. Cell proliferation as used herein also means the proliferation of cells which are different from the cells forming a first organism or species but are the cells forming a second organism or second species. Typically, the second organism enters in or has a relationship with the first organism. Preferably, the first organism is a human being or an animal or plant, also referred to herein as patient, and the second organism is a parasite and pathogen, respectively, to said first organism. Mitosis as used herein, preferably means the cell division of cells being subject to said cell proliferation whereby even more preferably mitosis is the process of cell division whereby a complete set of chromosomes is distributed to the daughter cells. Without wishing to be bound by any theory, it seems that the compounds according to the present invention act on cells and thus influence their proliferation and mitosis, respectively, by being inhibitors to some enzymatic activity. Preferably, the inhibition is reversible. This activity is shown by the compounds according to the present invention with regard to bacteria, fungi, insect and mammalian cells.
Because of this, the compounds according to the present invention may be used for the treatment of a wide variety of disorders involving cell cycle regulation, both procaryotic and eucaryotic cell cycle regulation. The term "treatment" as used herein comprises both treatment and prevention of a disease. It also comprises follow-up treatment of a disease. Follow-up treatment is realized upon a treatment of a disease using compounds preferably different from the one according to the present invention. For example, after stimulating the growth of a cell, tissue or the like by the application of a respective compound such as, e. g., erythropoietin, it might be necessary to stop an overshooting reaction of cell proliferation which may be obtained using the compounds according to the present invention.
By "reversible" herein is meant that the inhibitor binds non-covalently to the respective enzyme, and is to be distinguished from irreversible inhibition. See Walsh, Enzymatic Reaction Mechanisms, Freeman & Co., N.Y., 1979. "Reversible" in this context is a term understood by those skilled in the art. Preferably the compounds according to the present invention are competitive inhibitors, that is, they compete with substrate in binding reversibly to the enzyme, with the binding of inhibitor and substrate being mutually exclusive.
In a preferred embodiment of the compounds according to the present invention the dissociation constant for inhibition of the enzyme(s) with the inhibitor, i. e. the compound according to the present invention, generally referred to and characterized by those in the art as Kj, is at most about 100 μM. By the term "binding constant" or "dissociation constant" or grammatical equivalents herein is meant the equilibrium dissociation constant for the reversible association of inhibitor with enzyme. The dissociation constants are defined and determined as described below. The determination of dissociation constants is known in the art. For example, for reversible inhibition reactions such as those of the present invention, the reaction scheme is as follows: E+I E*I (Equation 1)
The enzyme (E) and the inhibitor (I) combine to give an enzyme-inhibitor complex (E*I). This step is assumed to be rapid and reversible, with no chemical changes taking place; the enzyme and the inhibitor are held together by non-covalent forces. In this reaction, ki is the second order rate constant for the formation of the E*I reversible complex. k2 is the first order rate constant for the dissociation of the reversible E*I complex, hi this reaction, Ki =k2/kι.
The measurement of the equilibrium constant K; proceeds according to techniques well known in the art. For example, assays generally use synthetic chromogenic or fluorogenic substrates. The respective Kj values may be estimated using the Dixon plot as described by Irwin Segel in Enzyme Kinetics: Behavior and analysis of rapid equilibrium and steady-state enzyme systems, 1975, Wiley-lnterscience Publication, John Wiley & Sons, New York, or for competitive binding inhibitors from the following calculation:
HvAoMIMrj+Ki (1+([S]/Km))) (Equation 2)
wherein v0 is the rate of substrate hydrolysis in the absence of inhibitor, and v; is the rate in the presence of competitive inhibitor.
The compounds according to the present invention may be easily screened for their efficacy in relation to the various uses disclosed herein
By a "labelled compound according to the present invention" herein is meant a compound according to the present invention that has at least one element, isotope or chemical compound attached to enable the detection of the compound or the compound bound to a target such as an enzyme. In general, labels as used herein, fall into three classes: a) isotopic labels, which may be radioactive or heavy isotopes; b) immune labels, which may be antibodies or antigens; and c) colored or fluorescent dyes. The labels may be incorporated into the compound at any position. Examples of useful labels include 14C, 13C, 15N, 3H, biotin, and fluorescent labels as are well known in the art. As used herein, the term "disease" describes any disease, diseased condition or pathological condition. Such disease may also be defined as abnormal condition. Also, in case of a pathogen, disease means a condition where a pathogen or an unwanted organism is present or present in a concentration or compartment where it is undesired and thus subject to reduction in numbers, removal, elimination and/or destruction by using the compounds according to the present invention.

In a further embodiment, the immune based and/or inflammatory disease is selected from the group comprising rheumatoid arthritis, glomerulonephritis, systemic lupus erythematosus associated glomerulonephritis, irritable bowel syndrome, bronchial asthma, multiple sclerosis, pemphigus, pemphigoid, scleroderma, myasthenia gravis, autoimmune haemolytic and thrombocytopenic states, Goodpasture's syndrome, pulmonary hemorrhage, vasculitis, Crohn's disease, and dermatomyositis.
In a further preferred embodiment the immune based and/or inflammatory disease is an inflammatory condition.
In a still further embodiment the immune based and/or inflammatory disease is selected from the group comprising inflammation associated with burns, lung injury, myocardial infarction, coronary thrombosis, vascular occlusion, post-surgical vascular reocclusion, artherosclerosis, traumatic central nervous system injury, ischemic heart disease and ischemia-reperfusion injury, acute respiratory distress syndrome, systemic inflammatory response syndrome, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, tissue graft rejection and hyperacute rejection of transplanted organs.
It is also within the present invention that the compounds according to the present invention may be used for the treatment of a patient suffering from a disease or diseased condition as defined above. Such treatment comprises the administration of one or several of the compounds according to the present invention or a medicament or pharmaceutical composition described herein.
Toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of a compound can be determined by standard pharmaceutical procedures in cell culture or experimental animals. Cell culture assays and animal studies can be used to determine the LD50 (the dose lethal to 50% of a population) and the ED50 (the dose therapeutically effective in 50% of a population). The dose ratio between toxic and therapeutic effects is the therapeutic index, which can be expressed as the ratio LD50/ED50. Compounds which exhibit large therapeutic indices are preferred. The data obtained from these cell culture assays and animal studies can be used in formulating a range of dosages suitable for use in humans. The dosage may vary within this range depending upon a variety of factors, e.g., the dosage form employed, the route of administration utilized, the condition of the subject, and the like
For any compound according to the present invention, the therapeutically effective dose can be estimated initially from cell culture assays by determining an IC50 (i.e., the concentration of the test substance which achieves a half-maximal inhibition of cell proliferation). A dose can then be formulated in animal models to achieve a circulating plasma concentration range that includes the IC50 as determined in cell culture. Such information can be used to more accurately determine useful doses in humans. Levels in plasma may be measured, for example by HPLC or LC/MS.
It should be noted that the attending physician would know how to and when to terminate, interrupt, or adjust administration due to toxicity, to organ dysfunction, and the like. Conversely, the attending physician would also know to adjust treatment to higher levels if the clinical response were not adequate (precluding toxicity). The magnitude of an administered dose in the management of the disorder of interest will vary with the severity of the condition to be treated, with the route of administration, and the like. The severity of the condition may, for example, be evaluated, in part, by standard prognostic evaluation methods. Further, the dose and perhaps dose frequency will also vary according to the age, body weight, and response of the individual patient. Typically, the dose will be between about 1-10 mg/kg of body weight. About 1 mg to about 50 mg will preferably be administered to a child, and between 25 mg and about 1000 mg will preferably be administered to an adult.
A program comparable to that discussed above may be used in veterinary medicine. The exact dose will depend on the disorder to be treated and will be ascertainable by one skilled in the art using known techniques.
Depending on the specific conditions to be treated, such compounds may be formulated and administrated systemically or locally. Techniques for formulation and administration may be found in "Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences", 1990, 18th ed., Mack Publishing Co., Easton, PA. The adininistration of a compound according to the present invention can be done in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to, orally, subcutaneously, intravenously, intranasally, transdermally, intraperitoneally, intramuscularly, intrapulmonary, vaginally, rectally, or intraocularly, just to name a few. In some instances, for example, in the treatment of wounds and inflammation, the compound according to the present invention may be directly applied as a solution or spray.
In a further aspect the present invention is related to a medicament or a pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one active compound and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, excipient or diluent. As used herein, the active compound is a compound according to the present invention, a pharmaceutically salt or base thereof or a prodrug thereof, if not indicated to the contrary.
For injection, compounds of the invention may be formulated in aqueous solution, preferably in physiologically compatible buffers such as Hank's solution, Ringer's solution, or physiologically saline buffer. For transmucosal administration, penetrants appropriate to the barrier to be permeated are used in the formulation. Such penetrants are generally known in the art.
The use of pharmaceutical acceptable carriers to formulate the compounds according to the present invention into dosages or pharmaceutical compositions suitable for systemic administration is within the scope of the present invention. With proper choice of carrier and suitable manufacturing practice, the compositions of the present invention, in particular those formulated as solutions, may be administered parenterally, such as by intravenous injection. The compounds can be readily formulated using pharmaceutically acceptable carriers well known in the art into dosages suitable for oral administration. Such carriers enable the compounds according to the present invention to be formulated as tablets, pills, capsules, dragees, liquids, gels, syrups, slurries, suspensions and the like, for oral ingestion by a subject to be treated.
Compounds according to the present invention or medicaments comprising them, intended to be administered intracellularly may be administered using techniques well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. For example, such agents may be encapsulated into liposomes, then administered as described above. Liposomes are spherical lipid bilayers with aqueous interiors. All molecules present in an aqueous solution at the time of liposome formation are incorporated into the aqueous interior. The liposomal contents are both protected from the external microenvironment and, because liposomes fuse with cell membranes, are efficiently delivered into the cell cytoplasm. Delivery systems involving liposomes are disclosed in International Patent Publication No. WO 91/19501, as well as U.S. Patent No. 4,880,635 to Janoff et al. The publications and patents provide useful descriptions of techniques for liposome drug delivery and are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety.
Pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound according to the present invention for parenteral administration include aqueous solutions of the active compound(s) in water- soluble form. Additionally, suspensions of the active compounds may be prepared as appropriate oily injection suspensions. Suitable lipophilic solvents or vehicles include fatty oils such as sesame oil or castor oil, or synthetic fatty acid esters, such as ethyl oleate or triglycerides, or liposomes. Aqueous injections suspensions may contain compounds which increase the viscosity of the suspension, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, sorbitol, dextran, or the like. Optionally, the suspension may also contain suitable stabilizers or agents which increase the solubility of the compounds to allow for the preparation of highly concentrated solutions.
Pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound according to the present invention for oral use can be obtained by combining the active compound(s) with solid excipient, optionally grinding the resulting mixture, and processing the mixture of granules, after adding suitable auxiliaries, if desired, to obtain tablets or dragee cores.

Dragee cores as a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound according to the present invention are provided with suitable coatings. For this purpose, concentrated sugar solutions may be used, which may optionally contain gum arabic, talc, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, carbopol gel, polyethylene glycol, titanium dioxide, lacquer solutions, suitable organic solvents or solvent mixtures, and the like. Dyestuffs or pigments may be added to the tablets or dragee coatings for identification or to characterize different combinations of active compound doses.
Pharmaceutical preparations comprising a compound according to the present invention which can be used orally include push-fit capsules made of gelatin, as well as soft, sealed capsules made of gelatin and a plasticizer, such as glycerol or sorbitol. The push-fit capsules can contain the active ingredients in admixture with filler such as lactose, binders such as starches and/or lubricants such as talc or magnesium stearate and, optionally, stabilizers. In soft capsules, the active compounds may be dissolved or suspended in suitable liquids, such as fatty oils, liquid paraffin, or liquid polyethylene glycols. In addition, stabilizers may be added.
A "patient" for the purposes of the present invention, i. e. to whom a compound according to the present invention or a pharmaceutical composition according to the present invention is administered, includes both humans and other animals and organisms. Thus the compounds, pharmaceutical compositions and methods are applicable to or in connection with both human therapy and veterinary applications including diagnostic(s), diagnostic procedures and methods as well as staging procedures and methods. For example, the veterinary applications include, but are not limited to, canine, bovine, feline, porcine, caprine, equine, and ovine animals, as well as other domesticated animals including reptiles, such as iguanas, turtles and snakes, birds such as finches and members of the parrot family, lagomorphs such as rabbits, rodents such as rats, mice, guinea pigs and hamsters, amphibians, fish, and arthropods. Valuable non-domesticated animals, such as zoo animals, may also be treated. In the preferred embodiment the patient is a mammal, and in the most preferred embodiment the patient is human.
The pharmaceutical composition according to the present invention comprises at least one compound according to the present invention in a form suitable for administration to a patient. Preferably, a compound according to the present application is in a water soluble form, such as being present as a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, which is meant to include both acid and base addition salts which are also generally referred to herein as pharmaceutically acceptable salts. "Acid addition salt", and more particularly "pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts" refers to those salts that retain the biological effectiveness of the free bases and that are not biologically or otherwise undesirable, formed with inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid and the like, and organic acids such as acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, salicylic acid and the like.

The pharmaceutical compositions according to the present invention may also include one or more of the following: carrier proteins such as serum albumin; buffers; fillers such as microcrystalline cellulose, lactose, corn and other starches; binding agents; sweeteners and other flavoring agents; coloring agents; and polyethylene glycol. Additives are well known in the art, and are used in a variety of formulations.
The compounds according to the present invention are, in a further embodiment, administered to a subject either alone or in a pharmaceutical composition where the compound(s) is mixed with suitable carriers or excipient(s). In treating a subject, a therapeutically effective dose of compound (i.e. active ingredient) is administered. A therapeutically effective dose refers to that amount of the active ingredient that produces amelioration of symptoms or a prolongation of survival of a subject which can be determined by the one skilled in the art doing routine testing.
On the other hand, the compounds according to the present invention may as such or contained in a pharmaceutical composition according to the present invention be used in drug potential applications. For example, therapeutic agents such as antibiotics or antitumor drugs can be inactivated through the catalytic action of endogenous enzymes, thus rendering the administered drug less effective or inactive. Accordingly, the compound(s) according to the present invention may be administered to a patient in conjunction with a therapeutic agent in order to potentiate or increase the activity of the drug. This co-administration may be by simultaneous administration, such as a mixture of the compound(s) according to the present invention and the drug, or by separate simultaneous or sequential administration.
According to the present invention the compounds disclosed herein, referred to as compounds according to the present invention, may be used as a medicament or for the manufacture of medicament or in a method of treatment of a patient in need thereof. Insofar any of these compounds constitute a pharmaceutical compound. The use of this kind of compound also comprises the use of pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives of such compounds.
In addition, the compounds according to the present invention may be transformed upon application to an organism such as a patient, into the pharmaceutically active compound. Insofar the compounds according to the present invention may be prodrugs which, however, are nevertheless used for the manufacture of the medicaments as disclosed herein given the fact that at least in the organism they are changed in a form which allows the desired
It is to be understood that any of the pharmaceutical compositions according to the present invention may be used for any of the diseases described herein.

Example 13: Specificity of inhibition of certain enzymes by compounds according to the present invention
In order to characterize the specificity of various compounds the following assays were performed. PPIase activity of hPinl, hCyplδ, LρCypl8, hFKBP12 and EcParvulin was measured using the protease-coupled PPIase assay according to Fischer et al. (Fischer, G.; Bang, H.; Mech, C. Determination of enzymatic catalysis fort he cis-trans-isomerization of peptide binding in proline-containing peptides. [German] Biomed. Biochem. Acta 1984, 43, 1101-1111; Hennig et al., Selective friactivation of Parvulin-like peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases by Juglon, Biochemistry. 1998, 37(17):5953-5960). For hPinl measurements Ac- Ala-Ala-Ser(PO3H2) -Pro-Arg-pNA was used as a substrate and trypsin (final concentration 190 μg/ml) as an isomer-specific protease. Activity measurements of other PPIases were made with the substrate peptide Suc-Ala-Phe-Pro-Phe-pNA and the protease α-chymotrypsin (final concentration 470 μg/ml). The assays were performed in a final reaction volume of 150 μl at final concentrations of 6 riM hPinl, 10 nM hCyplδ, 5 nM LpCyplδ, 20 nM EcParvulin and 20 nM hFKBP12, respectively, and 120 μM substrate peptide in 35 mM HEPES (pH 7.8). For inhibition experiments 100-0.01 μM of effector freshly diluted from a DMSO stock solution were added. The amount of solvent was kept constant within each experiment, usually below 0.3% (v/v). All reactions were started by addition of protease. The test was performed by observing the released 4-nitroaniline at 390 nm with a MR5000 UN/Nis spectrophotometer (Dynex) at 6°C. Data were evaluated by calculation of pseudo-first-order rate constants kobs in presence of PPIase and PPIase/effector, respectively, and conected for the contribution of the non-catalyzed reaction (ko). Inhibition constants IC50 were calculated using SigmaPlot 8.0 (SPSS).
The following target enzymes which are all rotamases belonging to different classes of rotamases were used:
T-l : Protein interacting with ΝIMA (-kinase), hPinl
T-2: First described human Rapamycin receptor, hFKBP12
T-3: Human Cyclosporin A receptor with 18 kDa molecular weight, hCypl8
T-4: Leishmonia pneumophila virulence Cyclosporin A receptor with 18 kDa molecular weight, LpCyp 18
T-5: Bacterial Juglon sensitive non proteolytic enzyme, EcParv
