Journal ArticleDOI
Influenza neuraminidase inhibitors possessing a novel hydrophobic interaction in the enzyme active site: design, synthesis, and structural analysis of carbocyclic sialic acid analogues with potent anti-influenza activity.
C U Kim,W. Lew,M.A. Williams,Hua-Kun Liu,Lijun Zhang,S Swaminathan,N Bischofberger,Min Chen,D. B. Mendel,C. Y. Tai,W. G. Laver,Raymond C. Stevens +11 more
TL;DR: The design, synthesis, and in vitro evaluation of the novel carbocycles as transition-state-based inhibitors of influenza neuraminidase (NA) are described and the presence of a large hydrophobic pocket in the region corresponding to the glycerol subsite of sialic acid is revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure−Activity Relationship Studies of Novel Carbocyclic Influenza Neuraminidase Inhibitors
Choung U. Kim,W. Lew,M.A. Williams,Huiwei Wu,Lijun Zhang,Xiaowu Chen,Paul A. Escarpe,D. B. Mendel,W. G. Laver,Raymond C. Stevens +9 more
TL;DR: From the extensive structure-activity relationship investigation reported in this article, GS 4071 emerged as one of the most potent influenza neuraminidase inhibitors against both influenza A and B strains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design, synthesis, and structural analysis of influenza neuraminidase inhibitors containing pyrrolidine cores.
Gary T. Wang,Yuanwei Chen,S. Wang,Gentles R,Thomas J. Sowin,Warren M. Kati,Steven W. Muchmore,Giranda,Kent D. Stewart,Hing L. Sham,Dale J. Kempf,W. G. Laver +11 more
TL;DR: These studies accelerated the identification of (+/-)-(2S,3R,4R)-2-(trifluoroacetamido)methyl-3-amino-1-(N-ethyl-N-isopropylcarbamyl)pyrrolidine-4-carboxylate (20e, A-192558) as the most potent NA inhibitor in this series.
