Synthesis and in vitro evaluation of substituted aryl- and hetarylmethyl phosphonate and phosphate UMP derivatives as potential glucosyltransferase inhibitors
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The enzyme β (1[Formula: see text]4)-glucosyltransferase (BGT) catalyses the transfer of glucose from uridine diphosphoglucose (UDP-Glc) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-HMC) bases in double-stranded DNA. Potential inhibitors of BGT were developed by structure-based design and synthesized. The designed inhibitors 16 provide conformational mimicry of the transition state in glucosyltransfer reactions. The key synthetic steps involve a MichaelisArbuzov reaction followed by coupling with uridine-5'-morpholidophosphate as activated UMP derivative. The compounds were tested for in vitro inhibitory activity against BGT and the inhibition kinetics were examined. Three of the designed molecules were found to be potential inhibitors of BGT having IC50 values in the micromolar (µM) range. Useful structureactivity relationships were established which provide guidelines for the design of future generations of inhibitors of BGT.Key words: β-glucosyltransferase, transition state, enzyme inhibitors, structure-based design, synthesis.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
