Abstract
DNA-encoded chemical library (DEL) has been extensively used for lead compound discovery for decades in academia and industry. Incorporating an electrophile warhead into DNA-encoded compounds recently permitted the discovery of covalent ligands that selectively react with a particular cysteine residue. However, noncysteine residues remain underexplored as modification sites of covalent DELs. Herein, we report the design and utility of tyrosine-targeting DELs of 67 million compounds. Proteome-wide reactivity analysis of tyrosine-reactive sulfonyl fluoride (SF) covalent probes suggested three enzymes (phosphoglycerate mutase 1, glutathione s-transferase 1, and dipeptidyl peptidase 3) as models of tyrosine-targetable proteins. Enrichment with SF-functionalized DELs led to the identification of a series of tyrosine-targeting covalent inhibitors of the model enzymes. In-depth mechanistic investigation revealed their novel modes of action and reactive ligand-accessible hotspots of the enzymes. Our strategy of combining activity-based proteome profiling and covalent DEL enrichment (ABPP-CoDEL), which generated selective covalent binders against a variety of target proteins, illustrates the potential use of this methodology in further covalent drug discovery.

Abstract
The structural diversity of chemical libraries, which are systematic collections of compounds that have potential to bind to biomolecules, can be represented by chemical latent space. A chemical latent space is a projection of a compound structure into a mathematical space based on several molecular features, and it can express structural diversity within a compound library in order to explore a broader chemical space and generate novel compound structures for drug candidates. In this study, we developed a deep-learning method, called NP-VAE (Natural Product-oriented Variational Autoencoder), based on variational autoencoder for managing hard-to-analyze datasets from DrugBank and large molecular structures such as natural compounds with chirality, an essential factor in the 3D complexity of compounds. NP-VAE was successful in constructing the chemical latent space from large-sized compounds that were unable to be handled in existing methods, achieving higher reconstruction accuracy, and demonstrating stable performance as a generative model across various indices. Furthermore, by exploring the acquired latent space, we succeeded in comprehensively analyzing a compound library containing natural compounds and generating novel compound structures with optimized functions.

Abstract
Despite the well-established role of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the mechanism underlying phototoxicity remains unclear. Herein, we used a drug repurposing approach to isolate an FDA-approved drug that blocks the aggregation of the photoinducible major fluorophore of lipofuscin, the bis-retinoid N-retinylidene-N-retinylethanolamine (A2E). Our fluorescence-based screening combined with dynamic light scattering (DLS) analysis led to the identification of entacapone as a potent inhibitor of A2E fluorescence and aggregation. The entacapone-mediated inhibition of A2E aggregation blocks its photodegradation and offers photoprotection in A2E-loaded retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells exposed to blue light. In-depth mechanistic analysis suggests that entacapone prevents the conversion of toxic aggregates by redirecting A2E into off-pathway oligomers. These findings provide evidence that aggregation contributes to the phototoxicity of A2E.

Abstract
Vitamin D3 metabolites block lipid biosynthesis by promoting degradation of the complex of sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) and SREBP cleavage-activating protein (SCAP) independent of their effects on the vitamin D receptor (VDR). We previously reported the development of KK-052, the first vitamin D-based SREBP inhibitor that mitigates hepatic lipid accumulation without VDR-mediated calcemic action in mice. Herein we extend our previous work to synthesize KK-052 analogues. Various substituents were introduced to the phenyl ring of KK-052, and two KK-052 analogues were found to exhibit more potent SREBP/SCAP inhibitory activity than KK-052, whereas they all lack VDR activity. These new KK-052 analogues may be suited for further development as VDR-silent SREBP/SCAP inhibitors.

Abstract
Protein or peptide cancer vaccines usually include immune potentiators, so-called adjuvants. However, it remains challenging to identify structurally simple, chemically accessible synthetic molecules that are effective and safe as vaccine adjuvant. Here, we present cholicamideβ (6), a self-assembling small-molecule vaccine adjuvant with an improved toxicity profile and proven efficacy in vivo. We demonstrate that cholicamideβ (6), which is less cytotoxic than its parent compound, forms virus-like particles to potently activate dendritic cells with the concomitant secretion of cytokines. When combined with a peptide antigen, cholicamideβ (6) potentiated the antigen presentation on dendritic cells to induce antigen-specific T cells. As a therapeutic cancer vaccine adjuvant in mice, a mixture of cholicamideβ (6) and a peptide antigen protected mice from the challenges of malignant cancer cells without overt toxicity. Cholicamideβ (6) may offer a translational opportunity as an unprecedented class of small-molecule cancer vaccine adjuvants.

Abstract
Xanthine derivatives were identified as inhibitors of the N6-methyladenosine (m6A) demethylase activity of fat-mass-and-obesity-associated protein (FTO) by activity-based high-throughput screening using the m6A-sensitive ribonuclease MazF. Pentoxifylline exhibited L-ascorbic acid concentration-dependent inhibitory activity against FTO, an unprecedented mode of inhibition, indicating that L-ascorbic acid is a promising key for designing FTO-specific inhibitors.

Abstract
Distal hereditary motor neuropathies (dHMNs) are a group of inherited diseases involving the progressive, length-dependent axonal degeneration of the lower motor neurons. There are currently 29 reported causative genes and four disease loci implicated in dHMN. Despite the high genetic heterogeneity, mutations in the known genes account for less than 20% of dHMN cases, with the mutations identified predominantly being point mutations or indels. We have expanded the spectrum of dHMN mutations with the identification of a 1.35 Mb complex structural variation (SV) causing a form of autosomal dominant dHMN (DHMN1 OMIM %182906). Given the complex nature of SV mutations and the importance of studying pathogenic mechanisms in a neuronal setting, we generated a patient-derived DHMN1 motor neuron model harbouring the 1.35 Mb complex insertion. The DHMN1 complex insertion creates a duplicated copy of the first 10 exons of the ubiquitin-protein E3 ligase gene (UBE3C) and forms a novel gene-intergenic fusion sense transcript by incorporating a terminal pseudo-exon from intergenic sequence within the DHMN1 locus. The UBE3C intergenic fusion (UBE3C-IF) transcript does not undergo nonsense-mediated decay and results in a significant reduction of wild-type full-length UBE3C (UBE3C-WT) protein levels in DHMN1 iPSC-derived motor neurons. An engineered transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans model expressing the UBE3C-IF transcript in GABA-ergic motor neurons shows neuronal synaptic transmission deficits. Furthermore, the transgenic animals are susceptible to heat stress, which may implicate defective protein homeostasis underlying DHMN1 pathogenesis. Identification of the novel UBE3C-IF gene-intergenic fusion transcript in motor neurons highlights a potential new disease mechanism underlying axonal and motor neuron degeneration. These complementary models serve as a powerful paradigm for studying the DHMN1 complex SV and an invaluable tool for defining therapeutic targets for DHMN1.

Abstract
Samples of the carbonaceous asteroid Ryugu were brought to Earth by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft. We analyzed 17 Ryugu samples measuring 1 to 8 millimeters. Carbon dioxide-bearing water inclusions are present within a pyrrhotite crystal, indicating that Ryugu's parent asteroid formed in the outer Solar System. The samples contain low abundances of materials that formed at high temperatures, such as chondrules and calcium- and aluminum-rich inclusions. The samples are rich in phyllosilicates and carbonates, which formed through aqueous alteration reactions at low temperature, high pH, and water/rock ratios of <1 (by mass). Less altered fragments contain olivine, pyroxene, amorphous silicates, calcite, and phosphide. Numerical simulations, based on the mineralogical and physical properties of the samples, indicate that Ryugu's parent body formed ~2 million years after the beginning of Solar System formation.

Abstract
The complete understanding of the excretion of surplus 25-hydroxyvitamin D<sub>3</sub> [25(OH)D<sub>3</sub>] in humans remains to be accomplished. In our previous study, 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D<sub>3</sub> [24,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub>] 24-glucuronide was identified as a major urinary vitamin D<sub>3</sub> metabolite, while the glucuronide of 23,25-dihydroxyvitamin D<sub>3</sub> [23,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub>] is another metabolite of interest but has not been sufficiently evaluated. Although the quantitative analysis of 24,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> liberated in urine by the treatment with β-glucuronidase (GUS) has been conducted, no information was provided about the amount of the glucuronidated 23,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> in the urine. In this study, we first developed and validated a liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS/MS)-based method for the simultaneous quantification of 23,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> and 24,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> liberated in urine by GUS. The analysis of the urine samples revealed that the amount of 23,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> was almost as much as that of 24,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub>, in contrast to the fact that the plasma concentration of 23,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> was much lower than that of 24,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub>. These results strongly suggested that 23,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> is more susceptible to glucuronidation and more promptly excreted into urine than 24,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub>. Furthermore, the amount ratios of 23,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> to 24,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> in the urine samples did not markedly vary during the day (morning/evening) and even by a week-long vitamin D<sub>3</sub> supplementation (1000 IU/body/day). We concluded that the C-23 hydroxylation plays a crucial role in the urinary excretion of surplus 25(OH)D<sub>3</sub>.

Abstract
Melanin is an organic material biosynthesized from tyrosine in pigment-producing cells. The present study reports a simple method to generate tailored functional materials in mammalian cells by chemically fabricating intracellular melanin. Our approach exploits synthetic tyrosine derivatives to hijack the melanin biosynthesis pathway in pigment-producing cells. Its application was exemplified by synthesizing and using a paramagnetic tyrosine derivative, m-YR, which endowed melanoma cells with responsiveness to external magnetic fields. The mechanical force generated by the magnet-responsive melanin forced the cells to elongate and align parallel to the magnetic power lines. Critically, even non-pigment cells were similarly remote-controlled by external magnetic fields once engineered to express tyrosinase and treated with m-YR, suggesting the versatility of the approach. The present methodology may potentially provide a new avenue for mechanobiology and magnetogenetic studies and a framework for magnetic control of specific cells.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION HER2 overexpression induces cancer aggression and frequent recurrences in many solid tumors. Because HER2 overproduction is generally followed by gene amplification, inhibition of protein-protein interaction (PPI) between transcriptional factor ELF3 and its coactivator MED23 has been considered an effective but challenging strategy. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to determine the hotspot of ELF3-MED23 PPI and further specify the essential residues and their key interactions in the hotspot which are controllable by small molecules with significant anticancer activity. METHODS Intensive biological evaluation methods including SEAP, fluorescence polarization, LC-MS/MS-based quantitative, biosensor, GST-pull down assays, and in silico structural analysis were performed to determine hotspot of ELF3-MED23 PPI and to elicit YK1, a novel small molecule PPI inhibitor. The effects of YK1 on possible PPIs of MED23 and the efficacy of trastuzumab were assessed using cell culture and tumor xenograft mouse models. RESULTS ELF3-MED23 PPI was found to be specifically dependent on H-bondings between D400, H449 of MED23 and W138, I140 of ELF3 for upregulating HER2 gene transcription. Employing YK1, we confirmed that interruption on these H-bondings significantly attenuated the HER2-mediated oncogenic signaling cascades and exhibited significant in vitro and in vivo anticancer activity against HER2-overexpressing breast and gastric cancers even in their trastuzumab refractory clones. CONCLUSION Our approach to develop specific ELF3-MED23 PPI inhibitor without interfering other PPIs of MED23 can finally lead to successful development of a drug resistance-free compound to interrogate HER2 biology in diverse conditions of cancers overexpressing HER2.

Abstract
Tandem repeats of guanine-rich sequences in RNA often form thermodynamically stable four-stranded RNA structures. Such RNA G-quadruplexes have long been considered to be linked to essential biological processes, yet their physiological significance in cells remains unclear. Here, we report a approach that permits the detection of RNA G-quadruplex structures that modulate protein translation in mammalian cells. The approach combines antibody arrays and RGB-1, a small molecule that selectively stabilizes RNA G-quadruplex structures. Analysis of the protein and mRNA products of 84 cancer-related human genes identified Nectin-4 and CapG as G-quadruplex-controlled genes whose mRNAs harbor non-canonical G-quadruplex structures on their 5′UTR region. Further investigations revealed that the RNA G-quadruplex of CapG exhibits a structural polymorphism, suggesting a possible mechanism that ensures the translation repression in a KCl concentration range of 25–100 mM. The approach described in the present study sets the stage for further discoveries of RNA G-quadruplexes.

Abstract
Enhanced de novo lipogenesis mediated by sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs) is thought to be involved in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) pathogenesis. In this study, we assessed the impact of SREBP inhibition on NASH and liver cancer development in murine models. Unexpectedly, SREBP inhibition via deletion of the SREBP cleavage-activating protein (SCAP) in the liver exacerbated liver injury, fibrosis, and carcinogenesis, despite markedly reduced hepatic steatosis. These phenotypes were ameliorated by restoring SREBP function. Transcriptome and lipidome analyses revealed that SCAP-SREBP pathway inhibition altered the fatty acid (FA) composition of phosphatidylcholines due to both impaired FA synthesis and disorganized FA incorporation into phosphatidylcholine via lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 3 (LPCAT3) downregulation, which led to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and hepatocyte injury. Supplementation of phosphatidylcholines significantly improved liver injury and ER stress induced by SCAP deletion. The activity of SCAP-SREBP-LPCAT3 axis was found inversely associated with liver fibrosis severity in human NASH. SREBP inhibition also cooperated with impaired autophagy to trigger liver injury. Thus, excessively strong and broad lipogenesis inhibition was counterproductive for NASH therapy, which will have important clinical implications in NASH treatment.

Abstract
The present study reports a surprising protein-condensing effect of glucose, prompted by our accidental observation during chemical library screening under a high-glucose condition. We noticed "glucosing-out" of certain compounds, in which physiological concentrations of glucose induced compound aggregation. Adapting the "glucosing-out" concept to proteins, our proteomic analysis identified three cellular proteins (calmodulin, rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 40, and polyubiquitin-C) that displayed robust glucose-dependent precipitation. One of these proteins, calmodulin, formed glucose-dependent condensates that control cellular glycogenolysis in hepatic cells. Our findings suggest that glucose is a heretofore underappreciated driver of protein phase separation that may have profound effects on cellular homeostasis.

Abstract
Covalent inhibitors of enzymes are increasingly appreciated as pharmaceutical seeds, yet discovering non-cysteine-targeting inhibitors remains challenging. Herein, we report an intriguing experience during our activity-based proteomic screening of 1601 reactive small molecules, in which we monitored the ability of library molecules to compete with a cysteine-reactive iodoacetamide probe. One epoxide molecule, F8, exhibited unexpected enhancement of the probe reactivity for glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), a rate-limiting glycolysis enzyme. In-depth mechanistic analysis suggests that F8 forms a covalent adduct with an aspartic acid in the active site to displace NAD+, a cofactor of the enzyme, with concomitant enhancement of the probe reaction with the catalytic cysteine. The mechanistic underpinning permitted the identification of an optimized aspartate-reactive GAPDH inhibitor. Our findings exemplify that activity-based proteomic screening with a cysteine-reactive probe can be used for discovering covalent inhibitors that react with non-cysteine residues.

Abstract
Phase-separated membraneless organelles or biomolecular condensates play diverse functions in cells, however recapturing their characteristics using small organic molecules has been a challenge. In the present study, cell-lysate-based screening of 843 self-assembling small molecules led to the discovery of a simple organic molecule, named huezole, that forms liquid droplets to selectively sequester tubulin. Remarkably, this small molecule enters cultured human cells and prevents cell mitosis by forming tubulin-concentrating condensates in cells. The present study demonstrates the feasibility of producing a synthetic condensate out of non-peptidic small molecules for exogenous control of cellular processes. The modular structure of huezole provides a framework for designing a class of organelle-emulating small molecules. A non-peptidic small molecule, R-huezole, phase separates to selectively sequester tubulin proteins to control the cell cycle. Its modular structure provides a framework for designing bioactive molecules to mimic membraneless organelles in cells.![]()

Abstract
Lactone-vitamin D3 is a major metabolite of vitamin D3, a lipophilic vitamin biosynthesized in numerous life forms by sunlight exposure. Although lactone-vitamin D3 was discovered 40 years ago, its biological role remains largely unknown. Chemical biological analysis of its photoaffinity probe identified the hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase trifunctional multienzyme complex subunit alpha (HADHA), a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes β-oxidation of long-chain fatty acids, as its selective binding protein. Intriguingly, the interaction of lactone-vitamin D3 with HADHA does not affect the HADHA enzymatic activity but instead limits biosynthesis of carnitine, an endogenous metabolite required for the transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria for β-oxidation. Lactone-vitamin D3 dissociates the protein-protein interaction of HADHA with trimethyllysine dioxygenase (TMLD), thereby impairing the TMLD enzyme activity essential in carnitine biosynthesis. These findings suggest a heretofore undescribed role of lactone-vitamin D3 in lipid β-oxidation and carnitine biosynthesis, and possibly in sunlight-dependent shifts of lipid metabolism in animals.

Abstract
KY02111 is a widely used small molecule that boosts cardiomyogenesis of the mesoderm cells derived from pluripotent stem cells, yet its molecular mechanism of action remains elusive. The present study resolves the initially perplexing effects of KY02111 on Wnt signaling and subsequently identifies squalene synthase (SQS) as a molecular target of KY02111 and its optimized version, KY-I. By disrupting the interaction of SQS with cardiac ER-membrane protein TMEM43, KY02111 impairs TGFβ signaling, but not Wnt signaling, and thereby recapitulates the clinical mutation of TMEM43 that causes arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), an inherited heart disease that involves a substitution of myocardium with fatty tissue. These findings reveal a heretofore undescribed role of SQS in TGFβ signaling and cardiomyogenesis. KY02111 may find its use in ARVC modeling as well as serve as a chemical tool for studying TGFβ/SMAD signaling.

Abstract
Genetic causes of vitamin D-related hypercalcemia are known to involve mutation of 25-hydroxyvitamin D-24-hydroxylase CYP24A1 or the sodium phosphate co-transporter SLC34A1, which result in excessive 1,25-(OH)2 D hormonal action. However, at least 20% of idiopathic hypercalcemia (IH) cases remain unresolved. In this case-control study, we used precision vitamin D metabolite profiling based on liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) of an expanded range of vitamin D metabolites to screen German and French cohorts of hypercalcemia patients, to identify patients with altered vitamin D metabolism where involvement of CYP24A1 or SLC34A1 mutation had been ruled out and who possessed normal 25-OH-D3 :24,25-(OH)2 D3 ratios. Profiles were compared to those of hypercalcemia patients with hypervitaminosis D, Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS), CYP24A1 mutation, and normal subjects with a range of 25-OH-D levels. We observed that certain IH and WBS patients exhibited a unique profile comprising eightfold to 10-fold higher serum 23,25,26-(OH)3 D3 and 25-OH-D3 -26,23-lactone than normals, as well as very low serum 1,25-(OH)2 D3 (2-5 pg/ml) and elevated 1,24,25-(OH)3 D3 , which we interpret implies hypersensitive expression of vitamin D-dependent genes, including CYP24A1, as a general underlying mechanism of hypercalcemia in these patients. Because serum 25-OH-D3 and 24,25-(OH)2 D3 remained normal, we excluded the possibility that the aberrant profile was caused by hypervitaminosis D, but instead points to an underlying genetic cause that parallels the effect of Williams syndrome transcription factor deficiency in WBS. Furthermore, we observed normalization of serum calcium and vitamin D metabolite profiles at follow-up of an IH patient where 25-OH-D was reduced to 9 ng/ml, suggesting that symptomatic IH may depend on vitamin D nutritional status. Other hypercalcemic patients with complex conditions exhibited distinct vitamin D metabolite profiles. Our work points to the importance of serum vitamin D metabolite profiling in the differential diagnosis of vitamin D-related hypercalcemia that can rationalize expensive genetic testing, and assist healthcare providers in selecting appropriate treatment. © 2021 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
Tyrosine nitration of proteins is one of the most important oxidative post-translational modifications in vivo. A major obstacle for its biochemical and physiological studies is the lack of efficient and chemoselective protein tyrosine nitration reagents. Herein, we report a generalizable strategy for light-controlled protein tyrosine nitration by employing biocompatible dinitroimidazole reagents. Upon 390 nm irradiation, dinitroimidazoles efficiently convert tyrosine residues into 3-nitrotyrosine residues in peptides and proteins with fast kinetics and high chemoselectivity under neutral aqueous buffer conditions. The incorporation of 3-nitrotyrosine residues enhances the thermostability of lasso peptide natural products and endows murine tumor necrosis factor-α with strong immunogenicity to break self-tolerance. The light-controlled time resolution of this method allows the investigation of the impact of tyrosine nitration on the self-assembly behavior of α-synuclein.

Abstract
Vitamin D3 metabolites inhibit the expression of lipogenic genes by impairing sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP), a master transcription factor of lipogenesis, independent of their canonical activity through a vitamin D receptor (VDR). Herein, we designed and synthesized a series of vitamin D derivatives to search for a drug-like small molecule that suppresses the SREBP-induced lipogenesis without affecting the VDR-controlled calcium homeostasis in vivo. Evaluation of the derivatives in cultured cells and mice led to the discovery of VDR-silent SREBP inhibitors and to the development of KK-052 (50), the first vitamin D-based SREBP inhibitor that has been demonstrated to mitigate hepatic lipid accumulation without calcemic action in mice. KK-052 maintained the ability of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 to induce the degradation of SREBP but lacked in the VDR-mediated activity. KK-052 serves as a valuable compound for interrogating SREBP/SCAP in vivo and may represent an unprecedented translational opportunity of synthetic vitamin D analogues.

Abstract
Immune potentiators, termed adjuvants, trigger early innate immune responses to ensure the generation of robust and long-lasting adaptive immune responses of vaccines. Presented here is a study that takes advantage of a self-assembling small-molecule library for the development of a novel vaccine adjuvant. Cell-based screening of the library and subsequent structural optimization led to the discovery of a simple, chemically tractable deoxycholate derivative (molecule 6, also named cholicamide) whose well-defined nanoassembly potently elicits innate immune responses in macrophages and dendritic cells. Functional and mechanistic analyses indicate that the virus-like assembly enters the cells and stimulates the innate immune response through Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7), an endosomal TLR that detects single-stranded viral RNA. As an influenza vaccine adjuvant in mice, molecule 6 was as potent as Alum, a clinically used adjuvant. The studies described here pave the way for a new approach to discovering and designing self-assembling small-molecule adjuvants against pathogens, including emerging viruses.

Abstract
Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) is a group of inherited diseases clinically and genetically heterogenous, characterised by length dependent degeneration of axons of the peripheral nervous system. A missense mutation (p.R158H) in the pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 3 gene (PDK3) has been identified as the genetic cause for an X-linked form of CMT (CMTX6) in two unrelated families. PDK3 is one of four PDK isoenzymes that regulate the activity of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC). The balance between kinases (PDKs) and phosphatases (PDPs) determines the extend of oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate to generate acetyl CoA, critically linking glycolysis and the energy producing Krebs cycle. We had shown the p.R158H mutation causes hyperactivity of PDK3 and CMTX6 fibroblasts show hyperphosphorylation of PDC, leading to reduced PDC activity and ATP production. In this manuscript we have generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) by re-programming CMTX6 fibroblasts (iPSCCMTX6). We also have engineered an isogenic control (iPSCisogenic) and demonstrated that genetic correction of the p.R158H mutation reverses the CMTX6 phenotype. Patient-derived motor neurons (MNCMTX6) show increased phosphorylation of the PDC, energy metabolism defects and mitochondrial abnormalities, including reduced velocity of trafficking mitochondria in the affected axons. Treatment of the MNCMTX6 with a PDK inhibitor reverses PDC hyperphosphorylation and the associated functional deficits founds in the patient motor neurons, demonstrating that the MNCMTX6 and MNisogenic motor neurons provide an excellent neuronal system for compound screening approaches to identify drugs for the treatment of CMTX6.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications play vital roles in fine-tuning a myriad of physiological processes, and one of the most important modifications is acetylation. Here, we report a ligand-directed site-selective acetylation using KHAc, a derivative of a phosphoglycerate mutase 1 (PGAM1) inhibitor. KHAc binds to PGAM1 and transfers its acetyl group to the ε-NH2 of Lys100 to inactivate the enzyme. The acetyl transfer process was visualized by time-resolved crystallography, demonstrating that the transfer is driven by proximity effects. KHAc was capable of selectively and effectively acetylating Lys100 of PGAM1 in cultured human cells, accompanied by inhibited F-actin formation. Similar strategies could be used for exogenous control of other lysine post-translational modifications.

Abstract
We accidentally found that YM-53601, a known small-molecule inhibitor of squalene synthase (SQS), selectively depletes SQS from mammalian cells upon UV irradiation. Further analyses indicated that the photodepletion of SQS requires its short peptide segment located at the COOH terminus. Remarkably, when the 27 amino acid peptide was fused to green fluorescent protein or unrelated proteins at either the NH2 or COOH terminus, such fusion proteins were selectively depleted when the cells were treated with both YM-53601 and UV exposure. Product analysis and electron spin resonance experiments suggested that the UV irradiation promotes homolytic C-O bond cleavage of the aryl ether group in YM-53601. It is likely that the radical species generated from UV-activated YM-53601 abstract hydrogen atoms from the SQS peptide, leading to the photolysis of the entire protein. The pair of the SQS peptide and YM-53601 discovered in the present study paves the way for the design of a new small-molecule-controlled optogenetic tool.

Abstract
ATP7A encodes a copper-transporting P-type ATPase and is one of 23 genes in which mutations produce distal hereditary motor neuropathy (dHMN), a group of diseases characterized by length-dependent axonal degeneration of motor neurons. We have generated induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived motor neurons from a patient with the p.T994I ATP7A gene mutation as an in vitro model for X-linked dHMN (dHMNX). Patient motor neurons show a marked reduction of ATP7A protein levels in the soma when compared to control motor neurons and failed to upregulate expression of ATP7A under copper-loading conditions. These results recapitulate previous findings obtained in dHMNX patient fibroblasts and in primary cells from a rodent model of dHMNX, indicating that patient iPSC-derived motor neurons will be an important resource for studying the role of copper in the pathogenic processes that lead to axonal degeneration in dHMNX.

Abstract
Vitamin D3 metabolites are capable of controlling gene expression in mammalian cells through two independent pathways: vitamin D receptor (VDR) and sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) pathways. In the present study, we dissect the complex biological activity of vitamin D by designing synthetic vitamin D3 analogs specific for VDR or SREBP pathway, i.e., a VDR activator that lacks SREBP inhibitory activity, or an SREBP inhibitor devoid of VDR activity. These synthetic vitamin D probes permitted identification of one of the vitamin D-responsive genes, Soat1, as an SREBP-suppressed gene. The chemical probes developed in the present study may prove useful in dissecting the intricate interplay of vitamin D actions, thereby providing insights into how vitamin D target genes are regulated.

Abstract
During our ongoing studies of vitamin D, we focused on the vitamin D3 side-chain 24-position, which is the major metabolic site of human CYP24A1. In order to inhibit the metabolism of vitamin D3, 24,24-difluorovitamin D3analogues are important candidates. In this paper, we report the practical introduction of the difluoro-unit to the 24-position to synthesize 24,24-difluoro-CD ring (1) and 24,24-difluoro-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (2).

Abstract
Covalent conjugates of multiple nutrients often exhibit greater biological activities than each individual nutrient and more predictable safety profiles than completely unnatural chemical entities. Here, we report the construction and application of a focused chemical library of 308 covalent conjugates of a variety of small-molecule nutrients. Screening of the library with a reporter gene of sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP), a master regulator of mammalian lipogenesis, led to the discovery of a conjugate of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), glucosamine, and amino acids as an inhibitor of SREBP (molecule 1, DHG). Mechanistic analyses indicate that molecule 1 impairs the SREBP activity by inhibiting glucose transporters and thereby activating AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Oral administration of molecule 1 suppressed the intestinal absorption of glucose in mice. These results suggest that such synthetic libraries of nutrient conjugates serve as a source of novel chemical tools and pharmaceutical seeds that modulate energy metabolism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A second-generation antihistamine, terfenadine, is known to induce arrhythmia by blocking hERG channels. In this study, we have shown that terfenadine also inhibits the activity of G-protein-gated inwardly rectifying K+ (GIRK) channels, which regulate the excitability of neurons and cardiomyocytes. To clarify the underlying mechanism(s), we examined the effects of several antihistamines on GIRK channels and identified the structural determinant for the inhibition. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Electrophysiological recordings were made in Xenopus oocytes and rat atrial myocytes to analyse the effects of antihistamines on various GIRK subunits (Kir 3.x). Mutagenesis analyses identified the residues critical for inhibition by terfenadine and the regulation of ion selectivity. The potential docking site of terfenadine was analysed by molecular docking. KEY RESULTS GIRK channels containing Kir 3.1 subunits heterologously expressed in oocytes and native GIRK channels in atrial myocytes were inhibited by terfenadine and other non-sedating antihistamines. In Kir 3.1 subunits, mutation of Phe137, located in the centre of the pore helix, to the corresponding Ser in Kir 3.2 subunits reduced the inhibition by terfenadine. Introduction of an amino acid with a large side chain in Kir 3.2 subunits at Ser148 increased the inhibition. When this residue was mutated to a non-polar amino acid, the channel became permeable to Na+ . Phosphoinositide-mediated activity was also decreased by terfenadine. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS The Phe137 residue in Kir 3.1 subunits is critical for inhibition by terfenadine. This study provides novel insights into the regulation of GIRK channels by the pore helix and information for drug design.

Abstract
Two novel 23-fluorinated 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 analogues were synthesized using Inhoffen-Lythgoe diol as a precursor of the CD-ring, efficiently. Introduction of the C23 fluoro group was achieved by the deoxy-fluorination reaction using N,N-diethylaminosulfur trifluoride or 2-pyridinesulfonyl fluoride (PyFluor). Kinetic studies on the CYP24A1-dependent metabolism of these two analogues revealed that (23S)-23-fluoro-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 was more resistant to CYP24A1-dependent metabolism than its 23R isomer.

Abstract
Most pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) develops from pancreatic epithelial cells bearing activating mutant KRAS genes through precancerous lesions, i.e. acinar-to-ductal metaplasia (ADM) and pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN). During pancreatic tumorigenesis, Hes1 expression starts with the transition from acinar cells to ADM, and continues during PanIN and PDAC formation, but the role of Hes1 in pancreatic tumorigenesis is not fully elucidated. Here we show that Hes1 plays an essential role in the initiation and progression of KRAS-driven pancreatic tumorigenesis. In vitro, activation of MAPK signaling due to EGF or mutant KRAS activation induced sustained Hes1 expression in pancreatic acinar cells. In vivo, acinar cell-specific activation of mutant KRAS by Elastase1-CreERT2;KrasG12D induced ADM/PanIN formation with Hes1 expression in mice, and genetic ablation of Hes1 in these mice dramatically suppressed PanIN formation. Gene expression analysis and lineage tracing revealed that Hes1 regulates acinar-to-ductal reprogramming-related genes and, in a Hes1-deficient state, mutant Kras-induced ADM could not progress into PanIN, but re-differentiated into acinar cells. In the Elastase1-CreERT2;KrasG12D;Trp53R172H mouse PDAC model, genetic ablation of Hes1 completely blocked PDAC formation by keeping PanIN lesions in low-grade conditions, in addition to reducing the occurrence of PanIN. Together, these findings indicate that mutant KRAS-induced Hes1 plays an essential role in PDAC initiation and progression by regulating acinar-to-ductal reprogramming-related genes.

Abstract
Cell-based therapy is a promising approach to restoring lost functions to compromised organs. However, the issue of inefficient cell engraftment remains to be resolved. Herein, we take a chemical approach to facilitate cell engraftment by using self-assembling molecules which modify two cellular traits: cell survival and invasiveness. In this system, the self-assembling molecule induces syndecan-4 clusters on the cellular surface, leading to enhanced cell viability. Further integration with Halo-tag technology provided this self-assembly structure with matrix metalloproteinase-2 to functionalize cells with cell-invasion activity. In vivo experiments showed that the pretreated cells were able to survive injection and then penetrate and engraft into the host tissue, demonstrating that the system enhances cell engraftment. Therefore, cell-surface modification via an alliance between self-assembling molecules and ligation technologies may prove to be a promising method for cell engraftment.

Abstract
Three 23-hydroxylated vitamin D3 derivatives, which are metabolites of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 produced by CYP24A1 and a related diastereomer, were efficiently synthesized. Each C23 hydroxy unit was constructed by the Claisen condensation reaction with ethyl acetate or the Grignard reaction with 2-methylallymagnesium chloride. Stereochemistry at the C23 position was determined by a modified Mosher's method. The triene structures were constructed by the Wittig-Horner reaction utilizing the A-ring phosphine oxide moiety.

Abstract
This report describes the design and evaluation of phosphorylated 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN38-P), which selectively eliminates tumor-forming proliferative stem cells, including human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and neural stem cells, from iPSC-derived neural cell mixtures. Results of the present study demonstrate that simple phosphorylation of an anticancer drug can provide a safe, cost-effective, and chemically-defined tool for decontaminating hiPSC-derived neuron.

Abstract
Cellular microenvironments consist of a variety of cues, such as growth factors, extracellular matrices, and intercellular interactions. These cues are well orchestrated and are crucial in regulating cell functions in a living system. Although a number of researchers have attempted to investigate the correlation between environmental factors and desired cellular functions, much remains unknown. This is largely due to the lack of a proper methodology to mimic such environmental cues in vitro, and simultaneously test different environmental cues on cells. Here, we report an integrated platform of microfluidic channels and a nanofiber array, followed by high-content single-cell analysis, to examine stem cell phenotypes altered by distinct environmental factors. To demonstrate the application of this platform, this study focuses on the phenotypes of self-renewing human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). Here, we present the preparation procedures for a nanofiber array and the microfluidic structure in the fabrication of a Multiplexed Artificial Cellular MicroEnvironment (MACME) array. Moreover, overall steps of the single-cell profiling, cell staining with multiple fluorescent markers, multiple fluorescence imaging, and statistical analyses, are described.

Abstract
The transcription factor Hes family basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor 1 (Hes1) is a downstream effector of Notch signaling and plays a crucial role in orchestrating developmental processes during the embryonic stage. However, its aberrant signaling in adulthood is linked to the pathogenesis of cancer. In the present study, we report the discovery of small organic molecules (JI051 and JI130) that impair the ability of Hes1 to repress transcription. Hes1 interacts with the transcriptional corepressor transducing-like enhancer of split 1 (TLE1) via an interaction domain comprising two tryptophan residues, prompting us to search a chemical library of 1,800 small molecules enriched for indole-like π-electron-rich pharmacophores for a compound that blocks Hes1-mediated transcriptional repression. This screening identified a lead compound whose extensive chemical modification to improve potency yielded JI051, which inhibited HEK293 cell proliferation with an EC50 of 0.3 μm Unexpectedly, using immunomagnetic isolation and nanoscale LC-MS/MS, we found that JI051 does not bind TLE1 but instead interacts with prohibitin 2 (PHB2), a cancer-associated protein chaperone. We also found that JI051 stabilizes PHB2's interaction with Hes1 outside the nucleus, inducing G2/M cell-cycle arrest. Of note, JI051 dose-dependently reduced cell growth of the human pancreatic cancer cell line MIA PaCa-2, and JI130 treatment significantly reduced tumor volume in a murine pancreatic tumor xenograft model. These results suggest a previously unrecognized role for PHB2 in the regulation of Hes1 and may inform potential strategies for managing pancreatic cancer.
