Selective inhibition is needed for drugs targeting the hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase of Trypanosoma cruzi, etiologic agent of Chagas' disease. 6-(2,2-Dichloroacetamido)chrysene, was shown herein to be a selective inhibitor of the trypanosomal enzyme. SAR analysis revealed that the 6-amido moiety was essential, but the dichloroaceto moiety was not essential for achieving the low K(i) for this inhibitor. Understanding the molecular basis for these interactions could facilitate the design of selective inhibitors without a chrysene moiety. |
