Abstract
Benzothiazole benzimidazole (S)-isothiazolidinone ((S)-IZD) derivatives 5 were discovered through a peptidomimetic modification of the tripeptide (S)-IZD protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitor 1. These derivatives are potent, competitive, and reversible inhibitors of PTP1B with improved caco-2 permeability. An X-ray co-crystal structure of inhibitor 5/PTP1B at 2.2A resolution demonstrated that the benzothiazole benzimidazole forms bi-dentate H-bonds to Asp48, and the benzothiazole interacts with the surface of the protein in a solvent exposed region towards the C-site. The design, synthesis, and SAR of this novel series of benzothiazole benzimidazole containing (S)-IZD inhibitors of PTP1B are presented herein.

Abstract
Structural analyses of the protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) active site and inhibitor complexes have aided in optimization of a peptide inhibitor containing the novel (S)-isothiazolidinone (IZD) phosphonate mimetic. Potency and permeability were simultaneously improved by replacing the polar peptidic backbone of the inhibitor with nonpeptidic moieties. The C-terminal primary amide was replaced with a benzimidazole ring, which hydrogen bonds to the carboxylate of Asp(48), and the N terminus of the peptide was replaced with an aryl sulfonamide, which hydrogen bonds to Asp(48) and the backbone NH of Arg(47) via a water molecule. Although both substituents retain the favorable hydrogen bonding network of the peptide scaffold, their aryl rings interact weakly with the protein. The aryl ring of benzimidazole is partially solvent exposed and only participates in van der Waals interactions with Phe(182) of the flap. The aryl ring of aryl sulfonamide adopts an unexpected conformation and only participates in intramolecular pi-stacking interactions with the benzimidazole ring. These results explain the flat SAR for substitutions on both rings and the reason why unsubstituted moieties were selected as candidates. Finally, substituents ortho to the IZD heterocycle on the aryl ring of the IZD-phenyl moiety bind in a small narrow site adjacent to the primary phosphate binding pocket. The crystal structure of an o-chloro derivative reveals that chlorine interacts extensively with residues in the small site. The structural insights that have led to the discovery of potent benzimidazole aryl sulfonamide o-substituted derivatives are discussed in detail.

Abstract
The structure-based design and discovery of the isothiazolidinone (IZD) heterocycle as a mimic of phosphotyrosine (pTyr) has led to the identification of novel IZD-containing inhibitors of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B). The structure-activity relationships (SARs) of peptidic IZD-containing inhibitors of PTP1B are described along with a novel synthesis of the aryl-IZD fragments via a Suzuki coupling. The SAR revealed the saturated IZD heterocycle (42) is the most potent heterocyclic pTyr mimetic compared to the unsaturated IZD (25), the thiadiazolidinone (TDZ) (38), and the regioisomeric unsaturated IZD (31). The X-ray crystal structures of 11c and 25 complexed with PTP1B were solved and revealed nearly identical binding interactions in the active site. Ab initio calculations effectively explain the strong binding of the (S)-IZD due to the preorganized binding of the IZD in its low energy conformation.

Abstract
Crystal structures of protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1B in complex with compounds bearing a novel isothiazolidinone (IZD) heterocyclic phosphonate mimetic reveal that the heterocycle is highly complementary to the catalytic pocket of the protein. The heterocycle participates in an extensive network of hydrogen bonds with the backbone of the phosphate-binding loop, Phe(182) of the flap, and the side chain of Arg(221). When substituted with a phenol, the small inhibitor induces the closed conformation of the protein and displaces all waters in the catalytic pocket. Saturated IZD-containing peptides are more potent inhibitors than unsaturated analogs because the IZD heterocycle and phenyl ring directly attached to it bind in a nearly orthogonal orientation with respect to each other, a conformation that is close to the energy minimum of the saturated IZD-phenyl moiety. These results explain why the heterocycle is a potent phosphonate mimetic and an ideal starting point for designing small nonpeptidic inhibitors.

Abstract
Potent nonpeptidic benzimidazole sulfonamide inhibitors of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) were derived from the optimization of a tripeptide containing the novel (S)-isothiazolidinone ((S)-IZD) phosphotyrosine (pTyr) mimetic. An X-ray cocrystal structure of inhibitor 46/PTP1B at 1.8 A resolution demonstrated that the benzimidazole sulfonamides form a bidentate H bond to Asp48 as designed, although the aryl group of the sulfonamide unexpectedly interacts intramolecularly in a pi-stacking manner with the benzimidazole. The ortho substitution to the (S)-IZD on the aryl ring afforded low nanomolar enzyme inhibitors of PTP1B that also displayed low caco-2 permeability and cellular activity in an insulin receptor (IR) phosphorylation assay and an Akt phosphorylation assay. The design, synthesis, and SAR of this novel series of benzimidazole sulfonamide containing (S)-IZD inhibitors of PTP1B are presented herein.

Abstract
Structure-based design led to the discovery of novel (S)-isothiazolidinone ((S)-IZD) heterocyclic phosphotyrosine (pTyr) mimetics that when incorporated into dipeptides are exceptionally potent, competitive, and reversible inhibitors of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B). The crystal structure of PTP1B in complex with our most potent inhibitor 12 revealed that the (S)-IZD heterocycle interacts extensively with the phosphate binding loop precisely as designed in silico. Our data provide strong evidence that the (S)-IZD is the most potent pTyr mimetic reported to date.

Abstract
The transformation of chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) by the Rous sarcoma virus leads to the constitutive expression of the cellular gene designated CEF-4. With specific antisera, we confirmed that transformed cells actively synthesize and secrete a 6 kDa polypeptide corresponding to the CEF-4 gene product. The expression of CEF-4 was investigated by Northern and immunoprecipitation analyses. Upon activation of pp60v-src in cells infected by a ts mutant of RSV, the expression of CEF-4 was biphasic with an early transient and a late constitutive period of expression. CEF-4 was expressed in cells transformed by a variety of oncogenes, but the level of constitutive expression differed quantitatively among transformed cells. Cells transformed by v-myc alone did not express CEF-4. Unlike other members of the interleukin 8 gene family, CEF-4 was induced in response to a broad spectrum of growth factors and inflammatory agents. Dexamethasone repressed the induction of CEF-4 by lipopolysaccharides but had little or no effect on the response to serum or pp60v-src. These data emphasize the complexity of CEF-4 expression and suggest the existence of multiple levels or pathways of CEF-4 regulation in normal and transformed cells.
