7-Phenyl-4-aminobenzothieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines were previously reported to exhibit moderate LIMK1 inhibition. Further exploration of SAR around the 7-phenyl moiety has led to the development of a lead series with an increased potency for LIMK1. Evaluation of physicochemical and ADME properties, and off-target kinase screens has seen this novel series emerge as a promising platform for a set of tool compounds for evaluating LIMK as a therapeutic target.

Optimization of Phosphotyrosine Peptides that Target the SH2 Domain of SOCS1 and Block Substrate Ubiquitination

Hao Chen, Yuntong Wu, Kunlun Li, Iain Currie, Narelle Keating, Farhad Dehkhoda, Christoph Grohmann, Jeffrey J. Babon, Sandra E. Nicholson, Brad E. Sleebs

Summary: Suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1) has been identified as a potential therapeutic target for inflammatory and viral diseases. This study successfully identified specific phosphotyrosine peptides that have high affinity and selectivity for the SH2 domain of SOCS1. These findings provide insights for the development of cell-permeable peptidomimetics targeting the SOCS1-SH2 domain for the treatment of inflammatory and viral diseases.

A revised mechanism for how Plasmodium falciparum recruits and exports proteins into its erythrocytic host cell

Mikha Gabriela, Kathryn M. Matthews, Cas Boshoven, Betty Kouskousis, Thorey K. Jonsdottir, Hayley E. Bullen, Joyanta Modak, David L. Steer, Brad E. Sleebs, Brendan S. Crabb, Tania F. de Koning-Ward, Paul R. Gilson

Summary: The malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum exports a large number of proteins into host erythrocytes, modifying the physiology of the host cells. This study has identified a subcomplex consisting of EXP2 and PTEX150 that facilitates the docking of HSP101. It has also demonstrated that HSP101 can interact with specific cargo proteins in the parasite's ER and guide them to the parasitophorous vacuole membrane. These findings provide insights into the mechanism of how exported proteins are targeted to PTEX.

Development of 1,2,4-Oxadiazole Antimicrobial Agents to Treat Enteric Pathogens within the Gastrointestinal Tract

Noel P. Pitcher, Jitendra R. Harjani, Yichao Zhao, Jianwen Jin, Daniel R. Knight, Lucy Li, Papanin Putsathit, Thomas Riley, Glen P. Carter, Jonathan B. Baell

Summary: Colonization of pathogenic bacteria in the GI tract is a significant risk factor for healthcare-associated infections. Efforts to develop effective decolonization agents have been largely unsuccessful. This study modified antimicrobial compounds to target bacterial pathogens in the GI tract and identified potential candidates for further development of colon-targeted antimicrobial agents.

A High-Throughput Phenotypic Screen of the 'Pandemic Response Box' Identifies a Quinoline Derivative with Significant Anthelmintic Activity

Harrison T. Shanley, Aya C. Taki, Joseph J. Byrne, Abdul Jabbar, Tim N. C. Wells, Kirandeep Samby, Peter R. Boag, Nghi Nguyen, Brad E. Sleebs, Robin B. Gasser

Summary: Parasitic nematodes cause economic losses in the agricultural industry and the widespread resistance to anthelmintic compounds highlights the need for new treatments. In this study, a screening of 400 compounds led to the discovery of MMV1581032, which exhibited significant inhibition of the motility and development of Haemonchus contortus and Caenorhabditis elegans. MMV1581032 has favorable characteristics and promising potential as a nematocide.

Scott, Kim Loh, Katrin Spengler, Regine Heller, Michael W. Parker, Gordon S. Lynch, Fei Huang, Sandra Galic, Bruce E. Kemp, Jonathan B. Baell, Jonathan S. Oakhill, Christopher G. Langendorf

Summary: AMPK is a cellular energy sensor and regulator of energy homeostasis. Activating AMPK shows potential for treating type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. Recent studies suggest that the ??202??1 isoform combination is primarily responsible for these effects. Structure/function analysis of SC4 activator led to the discovery of MSG010 and MSG011, which show greater potency in activating ??202??1 AMPK compared to MK-8722. These findings guide the development of selective AMPK activators.

Discovery of Anti-tubercular Analogues of Bedaquiline with Modified A-, B- and C-Ring Subunits

Lisa Barbaro, Gayathri Nagalingam, James A. Triccas, Lendl Tan, Nicholas P. West, Daniel L. Priebbenow, Jonathan B. Baell

Summary: The clinical use of bedaquiline has been limited due to safety concerns. Recent investigations have found that modification of the B- and C-ring units of bedaquiline can lead to the development of new compounds with potent anti-tubercular activity but improved safety. Concurrent modification of the A-, B-, and C-ring units in bedaquiline variants has been shown to result in compounds with relatively potent anti-tubercular activity and reduced safety issues.

Summary: This study identifies defective cell cycle arrest as a clinically relevant contributor to chemoresistance in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Downregulation of CDKN2A is associated with inferior overall survival in AML patients and occurs at relapse. Therapeutic targeting of the G(1)S cell cycle restriction point and promotion of apoptosis can enhance chemotherapy response in AML.

Summary: A proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) that depletes KEAP1 and activates the NRF2 antioxidant response has been developed as a potential strategy to treat diseases caused by oxidative stress. The optimized PROTAC 14 demonstrated potent KEAP1 degradation and increased expression of antioxidant proteins, effectively preventing cell death induced by reactive oxygen species. This approach presents an alternative therapeutic strategy for oxidative stress-related diseases.

Chemo-proteomics in antimalarial target identification and engagement

Brodie L. L. Bailey, William Nguyen, Alan F. F. Cowman, Brad E. E. Sleebs

Summary: Humans have been battling malaria for thousands of years, and although much progress has been made, certain regions still struggle with the disease, impacting social and economic development. The threat of resistance to current antimalarial treatments raises concerns, making it crucial to develop new chemotypes. Phenotypic screening has been successful in discovering new chemotypes, but the lack of information on their molecular targets hinders clinical development. Chemo-proteomics, a multidisciplinary approach, has been utilized to identify and validate targets, and this review provides insights on its methodology, practicalities, merits, and limitations in antimalarial development.

Sequence elements within the PEXEL motif and its downstream region modulate PTEX-dependent protein export in Plasmodium falciparum

Mikha Gabriela, Claudia B. G. Barnes, Dickson Leong, Brad E. Sleebs, Molly Parkyn Schneider, Dene R. Littler, Brendan S. Crabb, Tania F. de Koning-Ward, Paul R. Gilson

Summary: This article investigates the dual role of the P-2' position E/Q/D residue in the PEXEL motif of exported proteins, playing a role in plasmepsin V cleavage in the endoplasmic reticulum and efficient PTEX-mediated export into the red blood cells. The study also reveals that the spacer region between the PEXEL motif and the folded functional region of the protein controls cargo interaction with PTEX.

Summary: Twenty years after the first draft of the human genome was published, our understanding of the human proteome is still incomplete. The majority of proteins in the human proteome remain uncharacterized, with only a small percentage successfully targeted for drug discovery. Target 2035 aims to bridge this gap by developing new technologies for the entire human proteome by 2035.
