Crystal structure of rat vitamin D receptor bound to a partial agonist 26-adamantyl-23-yne-19-norvitammin D ADTK4
Structural highlights
Function[VDR_RAT] Nuclear hormone receptor. Transcription factor that mediates the action of vitamin D3 by controlling the expression of hormone sensitive genes. Regulates transcription of hormone sensitive genes via its association with the WINAC complex, a chromatin-remodeling complex. Recruited to promoters via its interaction with the WINAC complex subunit BAZ1B/WSTF, which mediates the interaction with acetylated histones, an essential step for VDR-promoter association. Plays a central role in calcium homeostasis.[1] Publication Abstract from PubMedVitamin D receptor (VDR) ligands are therapeutic agents that are used for the treatment of psoriasis, osteoporosis, and secondary hyperparathyroidism and have immense potential as therapeutic agents for autoimmune diseases, cancers, and cardiovascular diseases. However, the major side effect of VDR ligands, the development of hypercalcemia, limits their expanded use. To develop tissue-selective VDR modulators, we have designed vitamin D analogues with an adamantane ring at the side chain terminal, which would interfere with helix 12, the activation function 2, and modulate the VDR potency. Here we report 25- or 26-adamantyl-23,23,24,24-tetradehydro-19-norvitamin D derivatives (ADTK1-4, 4b,a and 5a,b). These compounds showed high VDR affinities (90% at maximum), partial agonistic activities (EC50 10-9-10-8 M with 40-80% efficacy) in transactivation, and tissue-selective activity in target gene expressions. We investigate the structure-activity relationships of these compounds on the basis of their X-ray crystal structures.
