The 1.76 Å resolution crystal structure of glycogen phosphorylase b complexed with glucose, and CP320626, a potential antidiabetic drug
(2002)CP320626, a potential antidiabetic drug, inhibits glycogen phosphorylase in synergism with glucose. To elucidate the structural basis of synergistic inhibition, we determined the structure of muscle glycogen phosphorylase ...

Glucose-based spiro-isoxazolines: A new family of potent glycogen phosphorylase inhibitors
(2009)A series of glucopyranosylidene-spiro-isoxazolines was prepared through regio- and stereoselective [3+2]-cycloaddition between the methylene acetylated exo-glucal and aromatic nitrile oxides. The deprotected cycloadducts ...

Glycogen phosphorylase inhibitors: A free energy perturbation analysis of glucopyranose spirohydantoin analogues
(2005)GP catalyzes the phosphorylation of glycogen to Glc-1-P. Because of its fundamental role in the metabolism of glycogen, GP has been the target for a systematic structure-assisted design of inhibitory compounds, which could ...

Identification of a series of novel derivatives as potent HCV inhibitors by a ligand-based virtual screening optimized procedure
(2007)This paper presents the results of a ligand-based virtual screening optimized procedure on 98 compounds which have been recently evaluated as inhibitors of genotype 1 HCV polymerase. First, quantitative structure-activity ...

In vitro study on the antioxidant activity of a polyphenol-rich extract from pinus brutia bark and its fractions
(2013)A crude hydromethanolic extract from Pinus brutia bark and its fractions (diethyl ether, ethyl acetate, n-butanol, and aqueous fractions) were studied with regard to their phenolic content and antioxidant activities. The ...

Kinetic and crystallographic studies of glucopyranose spirohydantoin and glucopyranosylamine analogs inhibitors of glycogen phosphorylase
(2005)Glycogen phosphorylase (GP) is currently exploited as a target for inhibition of hepatic glycogenolysis under high glucose conditions. Spirohydantoin of glucopyranose and N-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosylamine have been identified ...

Phenoxodiol (2H-1-benzopyran-7-0,1,3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)), a novel isoflavone derivative, inhibits DNA topoisomerase II by stabilizing the cleavable complex
(2002)Cancer therapeutic drugs that inhibit DNA topoisomerase (topo) II by stabilizing the cleavable complex are collectively known as topo II poisons. Phenoxodiol is a synthetic derivative of the plant isoflavone daidzein and ...

Predictive QSAR workflow for the in silico identification and screening of novel HDAC inhibitors
(2009)A linear Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) is developed in this work for modeling and predicting HDAC inhibition by 5-pyridin-2-yl- thiophene-2-hydroxamic acids. In particular, a five-variable model is ...

Topologically constrained domains of supercoiled DNA in eukaryotic cells
(1997)The size of supercoiled, topologically constrained DNA domains within the squamous carcinoma cell line SQ-20B were determined by direct comparison with a panel of irradiated supercoiled plasmid DNAs. Loss of supercoiling ...
