Journal ArticleDOI

Novel autoxidative cleavage reaction of 9-fluoredenes discovered during synthesis of a potential DNA-threading indenoisoquinoline.

TL;DR: The indenoisoquinolines are a novel class of cytotoxic non-camptothecin topoisomerase I inhibitors and it was found unexpectedly that an alkenyl substituent on the C11 position was autoxidatively cleaved under basic conditions to afford a ketone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery of selective inhibitors of tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 2 by targeting the enzyme DNA-binding cleft.

TL;DR: Virtual screening of the NCI diversity small molecule database and MM-PBSA per-residue energy decomposition identified important interactions of the compounds with specific TDP2 residues, which could provide new avenues for synthetic optimization of these scaffolds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methylphosphonodiester substitution near the conserved CA dinucleotide in the HIV LTR alters both extent of 3'-processing and choice of nucleophile by HIV-1 integrase.

TL;DR: The results in this study suggest that 'mutagenesis' of the DNA backbone can also alter the choice of nucleophile in the 3'-processing reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of substituted diarylmethylenepiperidines (DAMPs), a novel class of anti-HIV agents.

TL;DR: Attempts to verify inhibition of virus attachment and fusion as antiviral targets using time-of-addition experiments failed to confirm these observations, and instead identified an antiviral target occurring after completion of reverse transcription.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional categories associated with clusters of genes that are co-expressed across the NCI-60 cancer cell lines.

TL;DR: Clusters of coregulated genes that are associated with functional groupings of GO biological process categories reflect cancer-related themes such as adhesion, cell migration, RNA splicing, immune response and signal transduction demonstrate transcriptional coregulation of functionally-related genes.
