Abstract
![]()
Secreted virulence
factors like bacterial collagenases are conceptually
attractive targets for fighting microbial infections. However, previous
attempts to develop potent compounds against these metalloproteases
failed to achieve selectivity against human matrix metalloproteinases
(MMPs). Using a surface plasmon resonance-based screening complemented
with enzyme inhibition assays, we discovered an N-aryl mercaptoacetamide-based inhibitor scaffold that showed
sub-micromolar affinities toward collagenase H (ColH) from the human
pathogen Clostridium histolyticum. Moreover, these
inhibitors also efficiently blocked the homologous bacterial collagenases,
ColG from C. histolyticum, ColT from C. tetani, and ColQ1 from the Bacillus cereus strain Q1,
while showing negligible activity toward human MMPs-1, -2, -3, -7,
-8, and -14. The most active compound displayed a more than 1000-fold
selectivity over human MMPs. This selectivity can be rationalized
by the crystal structure of ColH with this compound, revealing a distinct
non-primed binding mode to the active site. The non-primed binding
mode presented here paves the way for the development of selective
broad-spectrum bacterial collagenase inhibitors with potential therapeutic
application in humans.

Abstract
Renal dipeptidase (RDP) is an enzyme overexpressed in benign and malignant colorectal tumors. In an effort to identify potent inhibitors of this enzyme, a series of aminophosphinic acid derivatives were synthesized. Compounds 3a and 3c in which the phenyl ring was para substituted with F and Br and olefin with Z geometry, showed better inhibitory activity against RDP enzyme (IC50 = 5-6 nM).

Abstract
L-alanine hydroxamate derivatives were obtained by reaction of alkyl/arylsulfonyl halides with L-alanine, followed by treatment with benzyl chloride, and conversion of the COOH moiety to the CONHOH group with hydroxylamine in the presence of carbodiimides. Other derivatives were obtained by reaction of N-benzyl-alanine with aryl isocyanates, arylsulfonyl isocyanates or benzoyl isothiocyanate, followed by a similar conversion of the COOH to the CONHOH moiety. The obtained compounds were assayed as inhibitors of Clostridium histolyticum collagenase, ChC (EC 3.4.24.3), a zinc enzyme which degrades triple helical collagen. The hydroxamate derivatives were generally 100-500 times more active than the corresponding carboxylates. In the series of synthesized derivatives, substitution patterns leading to the most potent ChC inhibitors were those involving perfluoroalkylsulfonyl- and substituted-arylsulfonyl moieties, such as pentafluorophenylsulfonyl, 3- and 4-protected-aminophenylsulfonyl-, 3- and 4-carboxy-phenylsulfonyl-, 3-trifluoromethyl-phenylsulfonyl-, or 1- and 2-naphthylsulfonyl among others. Similarly to the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) hydroxamate inhibitors, ChC inhibitors of the type reported here must incorporate hydrophobic moieties at the P(2') and P(3') sites, in order to achieve tight binding to the enzyme.

Abstract
Reaction of alkyl/arylsulfonyl halides with glycine afforded a series of derivatives which were first N-benzylated by treatment with benzyl chloride, and then converted to the corresponding hydroxamic acids with hydroxylamine in the presence of carbodiimide derivatives. Other derivatives were obtained by reaction of N-benzyl-glycine with aryl isocyanates, arylsulfonyl isocyanates or benzoyl isothiocyanate, followed by conversion of their COOH group into the CONHOH moiety, as mentioned above. The 90 new compounds reported here were assayed as inhibitors of the Clostridium histolyticum collagenase (EC 3.4.24.3), a zinc enzyme which degrades triple helical regions of native collagen. The prepared hydroxamate derivatives were generally 100-500 times more active than the corresponding carboxylates. In the series of synthesized hydroxamates, substitution patterns leading to the best inhibitors were those involving perfluoroalkylsulfonyl- and substituted-arylsulfonyl moieties, such as pentafluorophenylsulfonyl, 3- and 4-carboxyphenylsulfonyl-, 3-trifluoromethyl-phenylsulfonyl or 1- and 2-naphthyl among others. Thus, it seems that similarly to the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) hydroxamate inhibitors, Clostridium histolyticum collagenase inhibitors should incorporate hydrophobic moieties at the P(1') and P(2') sites, whereas the alpha-carbon substituent may be a small and compact moiety (such as H, for the Gly derivatives reported here). Such compounds might lead to the design of collagenase inhibitor-based drugs useful as anti-cancer, anti-arthritis or anti-bacterial agents for the treatment of corneal keratitis.

Abstract
A series of hydroxamates was prepared by reaction of alkyl/arylsulfonyl halides with N-2-chlorobenzyl-L-alanine, followed by conversion of the COOH moiety to the CONHOH group, with hydroxylamine in the presence of carbodiimides. Other structurally related compounds were obtained by reaction of N-2-chlorobenzyl-L-alanine with aryl isocyanates, arylsulfonyl isocyanates or benzoyl isothiocyanate, followed by the similar conversion of the COOH into the CONHOH moiety. The new compounds were assayed as inhibitors of the Clostridium histolyticum collagenase, ChC (EC 3.4.24.3), a bacterial zinc metallo-peptidase which degrades triple helical collagen as well as a large number of synthetic peptides. The prepared hydroxamate derivatives proved to be 100-500 times more active collagenase inhibitors than the corresponding carboxylates. Substitution patterns leading to best ChC inhibitors (both for carboxylates as well as for the hydroxamates) were those involving perfluoroalkylsulfonyl- and substituted-arylsulfonyl moieties, such as pentafluorophenylsulfonyl; 3- and 4-protected-aminophenylsulfonyl-; 3- and 4-carboxyphenylsulfonyl-; 3-trifluoromethyl-phenylsulfonyl; as well as 1- and 2-naphthyl-, quinoline-8-yl- or substituted-arylsulfonylamidocarboxyl moieties among others. Similarly to the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) hydroxamate inhibitors, ChC inhibitors of the type reported here must incorporate hydrophobic moieties at the P2' and P3' sites, in order to achieve tight binding to the enzyme. This study also proves that the 2-chlorobenzyl moiety, investigated here for the first time, is an efficient P2' anchoring moiety for obtaining potent ChC inhibitors.

Abstract
Several phosphonamide peptides having the general structure R-PO(OH)-Xaa-Yaa-Zaa were synthesized and tested for inhibition of Clostridium histolyticum collagenase. Inhibition was found to depend on the nature of R, Xaa, Yaa and Zaa such that the maximal affinity (Ki = 5 nM) was observed when R = p-nitrophenylethyl, Xaa = Gly, Yaa = Pro and Zaa = 2-aminohexanoic acid; this represents the tightest binding of inhibitor reported to date for any bacterial collagenase. Substitution of the p-nitrophenylethyl by a methyl group led to a 500-fold decrease of the potency, highlighting the existence of optimal interaction between the nitrophenylethyl side chain and one subsite of the enzyme. Replacement of the NH group in glycine residue (Xaa position) by -O- or -N-CH3 produces significantly less potent inhibitors, presumably due in part to the loss of a hydrogen bond between the inhibitor and collagenase active site. These phosphonamidates are thought to be acting as transition-state analogues of the peptide substrate.

Abstract
The hydrogen-abstracting quinone derivative 3,4,5,6-tetrachloro-1,2-benzoquinone (o-chloranil) caused a strong, near stoichiometric, irreversible inactivation of the collagenases from Bacillus cereus, Clostridium histolyticum and Achromobacter iophagus. p-Chloranil was a weaker inactivator. o-Chloranil reacted rapidly with a site that affected substrate binding. Amino acid analyses of native and totally inactivated enzymes, and the pH-profile of inactivation suggest that the dissociated form of a tyrosine residue was modified.

Abstract
An extensive series of synthetic mercaptotripeptides (HS-CH2-CH2-CO-Pro-Yaa) was prepared, and the inhibitory constants were determined on the Clostridium histolyticum collagenase. Among the factors which control the optimal binding of these inhibitors, we found that the presence of a free C-terminal carboxylate group in the position P3' of the compounds is of primary importance. In general, the esterification of this carboxylate group decreased the potency of the inhibitors by two orders of magnitude. We observed also that the enzyme favored the inhibitors having a long linear apolar or basic side-chain at the position P3'. The present data suggest a large S3' subsite of the C. histolyticum collagenase. The compound which contains a homoarginine residue at the P3' position with a Ki of 0.2 microM proved to be the most potent synthetic inhibitor known to date for the C. histolyticum collagenase.

Abstract
New synthetic mercaptotripeptides (HS-CH2-CH2-CO-Pro-Yaa) which inhibit Achromobacter iophagus collagenase were produced in order to obtain more powerful bacterial collagenase inhibitors than currently available, and to investigate the specificity of the S3' subsite of the enzyme. Since similar binding constants were found for inhibitors carrying uncharged residues of various sizes in the P3' position (Yaa = Ala, Leu, Phe, Pro, Hyp) steric hindrance at the collagenase S3' appears relatively limited. The compound (HS-CH2-CH2-CO-Pro-Arg), which carries an arginine residue in the position P3' and had the highest inhibition constant of the series tested (Ki = 0.5 microM), proved to be the strongest inhibitor so far reported in the literature. The weakest in the present series was the compound (HS-CH2-CH2-CO-Pro-Asp) which carries an aspartic residue in position P3' and had a Ki = 70 microM. The present work revealed that the charged groups in the P3' position play a key role in the interaction of the inhibitors with the enzyme.

Abstract
A series of phosphonic acid analogues of 2-benzylsuccinate were tested as inhibitors of carboxypeptidase A. The most potent of these, (2RS)-2-benzyl-3-phosphonopropionic acid, had a Ki of 0.22 +/- 0.05 microM, equipotent to (2RS)-2-benzylsuccinate and thus one of the most potent reversible inhibitors known for this enzyme. Lengthening by one methylene group to (2RS)-2-benzyl-4-phosphonobutyric acid increased the Ki to 370 +/- 60 microM. The monoethyl ester (2RS)-2-benzyl-3-(O-ethylphosphono)propionic acid was nearly as potent as (2RS)-2-benzyl-3-phosphonopropionic acid, with a Ki of 0.72 +/- 0.3 microM. The sulphur analogue of the monoethyl ester, 2-ambo-P-ambo-2-benzyl-3-(O-ethylthiophosphono)propionic acid, had a Ki of 2.1 +/- 0.6 microM, nearly as active as (2RS)-2-benzyl-3-(O-ethylphosphono)propionic acid. These phosphonic acids and esters could be considered to be multisubstrate inhibitors of carboxypeptidase A by virtue of their structural analogy with 2-benzylsuccinate. Alternatively, the tetrahedral hybridization at the phosphorus atom suggests that they could be mimicking a tetrahedral transition state for the enzyme-catalysed hydrolysis of substrate.

Abstract
The collagenase from Clostridium histolyticum is a mixture of several collagenases, all of which are zinc metalloproteases. This enzyme catalyzes the cleavage of the X-Gly peptide bond in the repeating sequence of collagen: -Gly-Pro-X-Gly-Pro-X-. Thus the S3, S2, and S1 subsites on the enzyme appear to be occupied by the sequence -Gly-Pro-X- and the S1', S2', and S3' subsites also by -Gly-Pro-X-. Short peptides up to and including N alpha-acyltetrapeptides containing the repeat sequence do not detectably inhibit the enzyme (IC50 greater than 10 mM). However, peptide aldehydes of the form aminoacyl-X-glycinal, presumably occupying the S1, S2, ..., Sn subsites, are inhibitors. The most potent of these was Pro6-Gly-Pro-glycinal, with an IC50 of 340 +/- 70 microM. The single peptide aldehyde investigated, which could occupy the S1' and S2' subsites, 4-oxobutanoyl-L-proline, did not inhibit collagenase (IC50 greater than 20 mM). The peptide ketone 5-benzamido-4-oxo-6-phenylhexanoyl-Pro-Ala (XXV), which could occupy the S1-S3' subsites, inhibits collagenase with an IC50 of 120 +/- 50 microM, over 80-fold more potently than its parent peptide analogue benzoyl-Phe-Gly-Pro-Ala (XXIII). The alcohol analogue of XXV, 5-benzamido-4-hydroxy-6-phenylhexanoyl-Pro-Ala (XXVI), is over 60-fold less potent with an IC50 of 8 +/- 2mM. Extending the peptide ketone XXV to occupy the S2-S3' subsites gave 5-(N alpha-carbobenzoxy-L-prolinamido)-4-oxo-6-phenylhexanoyl-Pro -Ala (XXVII). Surprisingly, XXVII had an IC50 of only 5.2 +/- 2 mM.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
A new series of thio ester, depsipeptide, and peptide substrates have been synthesized for the bacterial enzyme Clostridium histolyticum collagenase. The hydrolysis of the depsipeptide substrate was followed on a pH stat, and thio ester hydrolysis was measured by inclusion of the chromogenic thiol reagent 4,4'-dithiopyridine in the assay mixture. The best thio ester substrate, Boc-Abz-Gly-Pro-Leu-SCH2CO-Pro-Nba, had a kcat/KM of 63 000 M-1 s-1, while several shorter thio ester sequences were inactive as substrates. In general, the peptide analogues of all the reactive thio ester substrates were shown to be hydrolyzed 5-10 times faster by collagenase. In one case (Z-Gly-Pro-Leu-Gly-Pro-NH2) where a comparison was made, the peptide substrate was respectively 8- and 106-fold more readily hydrolyzed than the corresponding thio ester and ester substrates. Cleavages of the two fluorescence-quench substrates Abz-Gly-Pro-Leu-Gly-Pro-Nba and Abz-Gly-Pro-Leu-SCH2CO-Pro-Nba could be easily followed fluorogenically since a 5-10-fold increase in fluorescence occurred upon hydrolysis. The fluorescent peptide substrate is the best synthetic substrate known for C. histolyticum collagenase with a kcat/KM value of 490 000 M-1 s-1. A series of new reversible inhibitors were developed by the attachment of zinc ligating groups (hydroxamic acid, carboxymethyl, and thiol) to various peptide sequences specific for C. histolyticum collagenase. The shorter peptides designed to bind to either the P3-P1 or P1'-P3' subsites were poor to moderate inhibitors. The thiol HSCH2CH2CO-Pro-Nba had the lowest K1 (0.02 mM).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
