Synthesis, Biological Evaluation, and Molecular Modeling of Natural and Unnatural Flavonoidal Alkaloids, Inhibitors of Kinases
The screening of the ICSN chemical library on various
disease-relevant
protein kinases led to the identification of natural flavonoidal alkaloids
of unknown configuration as potent inhibitors of the CDK1 and CDK5
kinases. We thus developed an efficient and modular synthetic strategy
for their preparation and that of analogues in order to determine
the absolute configuration of the active natural flavonoidal alkaloids
and to provide further insights on the structure–activity relationships
in this series. The structural determinants of the interaction between
some flavonoidal alkaloids with specific kinases were also evaluated
using molecular modeling

Acridone Alkaloids from <i>Glycosmis chlorosperma</i> as DYRK1A Inhibitors
Two new acridone alkaloids, chlorospermines
A and B (<b>1</b> and <b>2</b>), were isolated from the
stem bark of <i>Glycosmis chlorosperma</i>, together with
the known atalaphyllidine
(<b>3</b>) and acrifoline (<b>4</b>), by means of bioguided
isolation using an in vitro enzyme assay against DYRK1A. Acrifoline
(<b>4</b>) and to a lesser extent chlorospermine B (<b>2</b>) and atalaphyllidine (<b>3</b>) showed significant inhibiting
activity on DYRK1A with IC<sub>50</sub>’s of 0.075, 5.7, and
2.2 μM, respectively. Their selectivity profile was evaluated
against a panel of various kinases, and molecular docking calculations
provided structural details for the interaction between these compounds
and DYRK1A

Comparison of co-crystal structures of 8g (PDB-ID: 6FT8; upper row) and 16 (PDB-ID: 6FT9; lower row) in complex with CLK1, respectively; red spheres: water molecules; black dashed lines: hydrogen bonds.
<p>A: Top view of <b>8g.</b> B: Side view of <b>8g</b>. C: Top view of <b>16</b>. D: Side view of <b>16</b>. A, C: While the lactam motives of the ligands perform the canonical hydrogen bonds to the hinge region, the indole nitrogen atoms are connected to a conserved water molecule. B, D: An area near the Lys191 and Glu206 side chains, unoccupied by both <b>7g</b> and <b>16</b>, is filled by three water molecules. The opening to the entrance of the binding pocket is delimited by Asp250. Compared to the shape of the pocket with bound <b>8g</b> (B), the entrance of the binding pocket is widened to accommodate the 2-bromo substituent of <b>16</b> (D).</p
