Abstract
Recently, an X-ray co-crystal structure of our hydroxamate inhibitor IK682 and TACE [Niu, X.; Umland, S.; Ingram, R.; Beyer, B. M.; Liu, Y.-H.; Sun, J.; Lundell, D.; Orth, P. Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 2006, 451, 43-50] was published that explicitly shows the orientation of the hydroxamate and the TACE-selective 4-[(2-methyl-4-quinolinyl)methoxy]phenyl P1' group in the S1' and S3' sites. The preceding paper described a novel series of potent and TACE-selective hydantoins and we previously described pyrimidinetrione (barbiturate) inhibitors of TACE, both of which contain the same P1' group as IK682. Using this TACE-selective P1' group as an anchor, stereochemical and conformational constraints in the inhibitors, and restrictions to the active site Zn coordination geometry, we developed a highly plausible and predictive pharmacophore model that rationalizes the observed TACE activity of all three inhibitors.
