Function[BACE1_HUMAN] Responsible for the proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). Cleaves at the N-terminus of the A-beta peptide sequence, between residues 671 and 672 of APP, leads to the generation and extracellular release of beta-cleaved soluble APP, and a corresponding cell-associated C-terminal fragment which is later released by gamma-secretase.[1] [2] Publication Abstract from PubMedFor further investigation of BACE1 inhibitors using conformational restriction with sp3 hybridized carbon, we applied this approach to 6-substituted aminopyrimidone derivatives 3 to improve the inhibitory activity by reducing the entropic energy loss upon binding to BACE1. Among eight stereoisomers synthesized, [trans-(1'R,2'R),6S] isomer 6 exhibited the best BACE1 inhibitory activity, which was statistically superior to that of the corresponding ethylene linker compound (R)-3. Combinational examinations of the binding mode of 6 were performed, which included isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), X-ray crystallographic structure analysis and theoretical calculations, to clarify the effect of our conformational restriction approach. From the ITC measurement, the binding entropy of 6 was found to be approximately 0.5kcal larger than that of (R)-3, which is considered to be affected by conformational restriction with a cyclopropane ring.
