| 20090093640 | SYNTHESIS OF ENONE INTERMEDIATE - The tetracycline class of antibiotics has played a major role in the treatment of infectious diseases for the past 50 years. However, the increased use of the tetracyclines in human and veterinary medicine has led to resistance among many organisms previously susceptible to tetracycline antibiotics. The recent development of a modular synthesis of tetracycline analogs through a chiral enone intermediate has allowed for the efficient synthesis of novel tetracycline analogs never prepared before. The present invention provides a more efficient route for preparing the enone intermediate. | 04-09-2009 |
| 20090143581 | SYNTHESIS OF AVRAINVILLAMIDE, STREPHACIDIN B, AND ANALOGUES THEREOF - The syntheses of the natural products, avrainvillamide and stephacidin B, are provided. The α,β-unsaturated nitrone functionality of avrainvillamide and its 3-alkylidene-3H-indole 1-oxide core is shown to covalently and reversibly bond to heteroatom-based nucleophiles. This capability may allow these molecules to bind active site nucleophiles and may provide the basis for designing potent and selective enzyme inhibitors. Both avrainvillamide and its dimer stephacidin B have been reported to exhibit antiproliferative activity, and avrainvillamide has been reported to exhibit antimicrobial activity against multi-drug resistant bacteria. Avrainvillamide has been found to target cytoskeleton-linking membrane protein (CLIMP-63) thereby preventing cells from undergoing mitosis. The invention provides syntheses of these natural products as well as analogs of these natural products and their functional cores. The compounds of the invention may be used in the treatment of diseases such as cancer, autoimmune diseases, and bacterial infection. | 06-04-2009 |
| 20100130451 | SYNTHESIS OF TETRACYCLINES AND ANALOGUES THEREOF - The tetracycline class of antibiotics has played a major role in the treatment of infectious diseases for the past 50 years. However, the increased use of the tetracyclines in human and veterinary medicine has led to resistance among many organisms previously susceptible to tetracycline antibiotics. The modular synthesis of tetracyclines and tetracycline analogs described provides an efficient and enantioselective route to a variety of tetracycline analogs and polycyclines previously inaccessible via earlier tetra-cycline syntheses and semi-synthetic methods. These analogs may be used as anti-microbial agents or anti-pro liferative agents in the treatment of diseases of humans or other animals. | 05-27-2010 |

| 20110105515 | TARGETING THE ONCOPROTEIN NUCLEOPHOSMIN - (+)-Avrainvillamide, a naturally occurring alkaloid with antiproliferative activity, is shown to bind to the oncoprotein nucleophosmin. Nucleophosmin is known to regulate the tumor suppressor protein p53 and is overexpressed in many different human tumors. The invention provides methods of modulating nucleophosmin and p53 using (+)-avrainvillamide and analogues thereof. These compounds may provide leads for the development of novel anti-cancer therapies that target nucleophosmin. | 05-05-2011 |
