Popis: Chain elongation prenyltransferases catalyze the addition of the hydrocarbon moiety of allylic isoprenoid diphosphates to the carbon-carbon double bond in isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) in the primary building reactions in the isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway. Bis-O-diphosphate analogues 3-OPP/OPP, 4-OPP/OPP, and 5-OPP/OPP and bis-thiolodiphosphate bisubstrate analogues 3-SPP/SPP, 4-SPP/SPP, and 5-SPP/SPP were synthesized. The analogues 4-OPP/OPP, 5-OPP/OPP, 4-SPP/SPP, and 5-SPP/SPP were excellent competitive inhibitors of avian farnesyl diphosphate synthase with KI = 1.0 ± 0.12 μM, KI = 0.5 ± 0.2 μM, KI = 0.7 ± 0.3 μM, and KI = 2.9 ± 0.27 μM, respectively, whereas, analogues 3-OPP/OPP and 3-SPP/SPP displayed mixed type inhibition with KI = 1.4 μM and KI = 5.5 μM, respectively.
