Crystal Structure of Estrogen Receptor alpha Complexed to a B-N Substituted Ligand
Contents |
Overview
To increase the chemical diversity of bioactive molecules by incorporating, unusual elements, we have examined the replacement of a C=C double bond, with the isoelectronic, isostructural B-N bond in the context of, nonsteroidal estrogen receptor (ER) ligands. While the B-N bond was, hydrolytically labile in the unhindered cyclofenil system, the more, hindered anilino dimesitylboranes, analogs of triarylethylene estrogens, were easily prepared, hydrolytically stable, and demonstrated substantial, affinity for ERs. X-ray analysis of one ERalpha-ligand complex revealed, steric clashes with the para methyl groups distorting the receptor;, removal of these groups resulted in an increase in affinity, potency, and, transcriptional efficacy. These studies define the structural determinants, of stability and cellular bioactivity of a B-N for C=C substitution in, nonsteroidal estrogens and provide a framework for further exploration of, "elemental isomerism" for diversification of drug-like molecules.
