Abstract
In this study, we have developedsmall molecule drug conjugates (SMDCs)consisting ofa prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) ligandand syringolin derivatives, which are potent proteasome inhibitors, to selectively deliver syringolin derivatives to prostate cancer cells. Two parent compounds were used for syringolin derivatives with different linkage sites. These SMDCs exhibited PSMA-expressing cell-selective cytotoxicity and they could potentially be used for safer treatment of cancer.

Abstract
Development of selective or dual proteasome subunit inhibitors based on syringolin B as a scaffold is described. We focused our efforts on a structure-activity relationship study of inhibitors with various substituents at the 3-position of the macrolactam moiety of syringolin B analogue to evaluate whether this would be sufficient to confer subunit selectivity by using sets of analogues with hydrophobic, basic and acidic substituents, which were designed to target Met45, Glu53 and Arg45 embedded in the S1 subsite, respectively. The structure-activity relationship study using systematic analogues provided insight into the origin of the subunit-selective inhibitory activity. This strategy would be sufficient to confer subunit selectivity regarding β5 and β2 subunits.

Abstract
The 20S proteasome is a valuable target for the treatment of a number of diseases including cancer, neurodegenerative disease, and parasitic infection. In an effort to discover novel inhibitors of the 20S proteasome, many reseaarchers have looked to natural products as potential leads for drug discovery. The following review discusses the efforts made in the field to isolate and identify natural products as inhibitors of the proteasome. In addition, we describe some of the modifications made to natural products in order to discover more potent and selective inhibitors for potential disease treatment.

Microb Cell Fact 2018; 17:31. [PMID: 29482589 PMCID: PMC6389232 DOI: 10.1186/s12934-018-0859-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2017] [Accepted: 01/15/2018] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Syringolin, synthesized by a mixed non-ribosomal peptide synthetase/polyketide synthetase in Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae (Pss) B728a, is a novel eukaryotic proteasome inhibitor. Meanwhile, directly modifying large fragments in the PKS/NRPS gene cluster through traditional DNA engineering techniques is very difficult. In this study, we directly cloned the syl gene cluster from Pss B301D-R via Red/ET recombineering to effectively express syringolin in heterologous hosts. Results A 22 kb genomic fragment containing the sylA–sylE gene cluster was cloned into the pASK vector, and the obtained recombinant plasmid was transferred into Streptomyces coelicolor and Streptomyces lividans for the heterologous expression of syringolin. Transcriptional levels of recombinant syl gene in S. coelicolor M145 and S. lividans TK24 were evaluated via RT-PCR and the production of syringolin compounds was detected via LC–MS analysis. The extracts of the engineered bacteria showed cytotoxic activity to B16, 4T1, Meth-A, and HeLa tumor cells. It is noteworthy that the syringolin displayed anticancer activity against C57BL/6 mice with B16 murine melanoma tumor cells. Together, our results herein demonstrate the potential of syrinolin as effective antitumor agent that can treat various cancers without apparent adverse effects. Conclusions This present study is the first to report the heterologous expression of the entire syl gene cluster in Streptomyces strains and the successful expression of syringolin in both S. coelicolor M145 and S. lividans TK24. Syringolin derivatives demonstrated high cytotoxicity in vitro and in vivo. Hence, this paper provided an important foundation for the discovery and production of new antitumor compounds.
