  • Enediynes, Enyneallenes, Their Reactions, and Beyond
    Advanced Review Enediynes, enyne-allenes, their reactions, and beyond Elfi Kraka∗ and Dieter Cremer Enediynes undergo a Bergman cyclization reaction to form the labile 1,4-didehy- drobenzene (p-benzyne) biradical. The energetics of this reaction and the related Schreiner–Pascal reaction as well as that of the Myers–Saito and Schmittel reac- tions of enyne-allenes are discussed on the basis of a variety of quantum chemical and available experimental results. The computational investigation of enediynes has been beneficial for both experimentalists and theoreticians because it has led to new synthetic challenges and new computational methodologies. The accurate description of biradicals has been one of the results of this mutual fertilization. Other results have been the computer-assisted drug design of new antitumor antibiotics based on the biological activity of natural enediynes, the investigation of hetero- and metallo-enediynes, the use of enediynes in chemical synthesis and C materials science, or an understanding of catalyzed enediyne reactions.

Since the isolation and structural determination of the neocarzinostatin chromophore in 1985, the enediynes have attracted considerable attention for their value as DNA damaging agents in cancer chemotherapy. Due to their non-discriminatory cytotoxicity towards both cancer and healthy cells, the clinical utilization of enediyne natural products relies on conjugation to an appropriate delivery system, such as an antibody. Here, we review the current landscape of enediynes as payloads of first-generation and next-generation ADCs. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Enediyne natural products

  • Docking, Triggering, and Biological Activity of Dynemicin a In
    Published on Web 06/11/2005 Docking, Triggering, and Biological Activity of Dynemicin A in DNA: A Computational Study Tell Tuttle,† Elfi Kraka,* and Dieter Cremer Contribution from the Department of Chemistry and Department of Physics, UniVersity of the Pacific, 3601 Pacific AVenue, Stockton, California 95211-0110 Received June 24, 2004; E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract: The triggering and biological activity of the naturally occurring enediyne dynemicin A (1) was investigated, both inside and outside the minor groove of the duplex 10-mer B-DNA sequence d(CTACTACTGG)‚d(CCAGTAGTAG), using density functional theory (B3LYP with the 3-21G and 6-31G- (d) basis set), BD(T)/cc-pVDZ (Brueckner doubles with a perturbative treatment of triple excitations), and the ONIOM approach. Enediyne 1 is triggered by NADPH in a strongly exothermic reaction (-88 kcal/ mol), which involves a number of intermediate steps. Untriggered 1 has a high barrier for the Bergman cyclization (52 kcal/mol) that is lowered after triggering to 16.7 kcal/mol due to an epoxide opening and the accompanying strain relief. The Bergman reaction of triggered 1 is slightly exothermic by 2.8 kcal/mol. The singlet biradical formed in this reaction is kinetically stable (activation enthalpies of 19.5 and 21.8 kcal/mol for retro-Bergman reactions) and is as reactive as para-benzyne. The activity-relevant docking mode is an edge-on insertion into the minor groove, whereas the intercalation between base pairs, although leading to larger binding energies, excludes a triggering of 1 and the development of its biological activity.

  • Enediyne Natural Products: Biosynthesis and Prospect Towards Engineering Novel Antitumor Agents
    Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2003, 10, 2317-2325 2317 Enediyne Natural Products: Biosynthesis and Prospect Towards Engineering Novel Antitumor Agents Ben Shen1,2*, Wen Liu1 and Koichi Nonaka1 1Division of Pharmaceutical Sciences and 2Department of Chemistry, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI 53705, USA Abstract: This review gives a brief account on the current status of enediyne biosynthesis and the prospective of applying combinatorial biosynthesis methods to the enediyne system for novel analog production. Methods for cloning enediyne biosynthetic gene clusters are first reviewed. A unified paradigm for enediyne biosynthesis, characterized with (a) the enediyne PKS, (b) the enediyne PKS accessory enzymes, and (c) tailoring enzymes, is then presented. Strategies and tools for novel enediyne analog production by combinatorial biosynthesis are finally discussed. The results set the stage to decipher the molecular mechanism for enediyne biosynthesis and lay the foundation to engineer novel enediynes by combinatorial biosynthesis for future endeavors.

Members of the 9-membered enediyne core sub-category are Neocarzinostatin (NCS), the first member of the enediyne chromoproteins consisting of an apo-protein and the family of antitumor antibiotics, was originally discovered as enediyne chromophore, with N1999A2 (5 ) from a macromolecular antitumor antibiotic from the culture Streptomyces sp. AJ9493 as the only exception that was filtrates of a Streptomyces carzinostaticus strain in 1965 [1]. isolated as a chromophore alone [15]. The apo-protein acts as Although it became clear shortly after its discovery that all a stabilizer and specific carrier for the otherwise unstable biological activities of NCS resided in a nonprotein chromophore and its transport and interaction with target chromophore, the NCS chromophore structure (1) was not DNA.
