BE 10988 : An Inhibitor of DNA –Topoisomerase II Indira Thapa November 24, 2005
DNA • Double helical structure • Store genetic information • Uncontrolled cell growth-Cancer Sugar-phosphate backbone Bases H-bonds
DNA - A Molecular Target for Cancer Therapeutics Protein-DNA complex New anticancer drug target • DNA-DNA crosslinker e.g. mitomycin C • Intercalator e.g. ellipticine • Double-stranded break e.g. bleomycin Develop drug resistance and mutagenesis • DNA binding during replication - Topoisomerase II
DNA Replication and Supercoiling • Topoisomerase II - A nuclear enzyme • -Importance and functions in cellular processes • -Enzymatic action mechanism & interaction with inhibitor • BE 10988 -Biological properties -Total synthesis • Structure Activity Relationship (SAR) Studies • Summary Overview
DNA Replication • DNA helix rotation during replication
DNA Supercoiling Supercoil formed during replication • Supercoiling - coiling of coils
Topoisomerase II (Topo II ) • Eukaryotic topoisomerases - type I and type II • Homologous dimer • Separate intact DNA FUNCTIONS: transiently breaks and reseals double stranded DNA simultaneously, and allows the passage of separate double helical strand through the break site.
Mechanism of Action of Topoisomerase II N-terminal C-terminal “Cleavable complex”
Action of Inhibitor inhibitor Inhibitor stabilizes “Cleavable complex” Blocks re-ligation inhibitor Cell Death Permanent DNA double strand break
Interest in Topo II Inhibitors • Without Topo II DNA cannot replicate normally • Inhibitors of topoisomerase II have been used as anticancer drugs • Proliferating tumour cells show high levels of topo II activity and this proliferative activity has in turn been associated with increased tumour cell sensitivity to topoisomerase II – interactive drugs. • Selective inhibition of topoisomerase II in cancer cells could lead to a new approach to cancer therapy
BE 10988 • Isolated from the culture broth of a • strain of actinomycetes in 1991 • Potent topoisomerase II inhibitor Shizuri, Y. et. al. J. Antibiot. 1991, 44, 486-491
Biological Properties • Showed growth inhibitory activity against resistant mouse tumour cells • Topoisomerase II-DNA complex formed • Inhibited the relaxation of plasmid DNA Supercoiled Plasmid DNA Relaxed Plasmid DNA Shizuri, Y. et. al. J. Antibiot.1991, 44, 486-491

DNA Cleavage Assay Linear DNA Circular plasmid DNA Drug inhibits re-ligation of DNA once the double helix is cleaved by the enzyme
Summary : SAR Studies Thiazole moeity plays a major role in topoisomerase II inhibition Required Quinone system is essential to activity • Analogue 2 is weak inhibitor of topoisomerase II, suggests that - NH2 substituent at quinone ring is also important for activity
DNA Binding Further studies have Shown: • Non-specific binding • Analogues do not intercalate into DNA • Study supports the fact that BE 10988 does not bind DNA covalently
Conclusions • Two total syntheses of BE 10988 • SAR studies of BE 10988 using four different analogues • More detailed mechanistic studies need to be done on BE 10988
