Klock, Cornelius published the artcileDiscovery of Potent and Specific Dihydroisoxazole Inhibitors of Human Transglutaminase 2, COA of Formula: C9H10N2O, the publication is Journal of Medicinal Chemistry (2014), 57(21), 9042-9064, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Transglutaminase 2 (TG2) is a ubiquitously expressed enzyme that catalyzes the posttranslational modification of glutamine residues on protein or peptide substrates. A growing body of literature has implicated aberrantly regulated activity of TG2 in the pathogenesis of various human inflammatory, fibrotic, and other diseases. Taken together with the fact that TG2 knockout mice are developmentally and reproductively normal, there is growing interest in the potential use of TG2 inhibitors in the treatment of these conditions. Targeted-covalent inhibitors based on the weakly electrophilic 3-bromo-4,5-dihydroisoxazole (DHI) scaffold have been widely used to study TG2 biol. and are well tolerated in vivo, but these compounds have only modest potency, and their selectivity toward other transglutaminase homologs is largely unknown. In the present work, we first profiled the selectivity of existing inhibitors against the most pertinent TG isoforms (TG1, TG3, and FXIIIa). Significant cross-reactivity of these small mols. with TG1 was observed Structure-activity and -selectivity analyses led to the identification of modifications that improved potency and isoform selectivity. Preliminary pharmacokinetic anal. of the most promising analogs was also undertaken. Our new data provides a clear basis for the rational selection of dihydroisoxazole inhibitors as tools for in vivo biol. investigation.
