IC50 (binding) | = 2770 nM | BindingDB_Patents: Spectrophotometric Enzyme Assay. Compounds were evaluated in spectrophotometric enzyme assays using ChDHFR-TS and hDHFR. Inhibition constants (IC50) were measured (see Table 4). The lead compound, X, has an inhibition constant of 38 nM and modest selectivity (8-fold). All of the biphenyl compounds are more potent than the initial lead compound X and exhibit greater selectivity for the pathogenic enzyme. The most potent racemic compound, D(rac), a 5'-biphenyl derivative, is also the most selective of the racemic compounds (944-fold). The single R enantiomer of this 5'-biphenyl analog is the most potent (1.1 nM) and most selective (1273-fold) of all known compounds tested against the Cryptosporidium DHFR enzyme. | ChEMBL. | No reference |
Many chemical entities in TDR Targets come from high-throughput screenings with whole cells or tissue samples, and not all assayed compounds have been tested against a single a single target protein, probably because they get ruled out during screening process. Even if these compounds may have not been of interest in the original screening, they may come as interesting leads for other screening assays. Furthermore, we may be able to propose drug-target associations using chemical similarities and network patterns.
