Abstract

Hymenialdisine (HMD) is a sponge-derived natural product kinase inhibitor with nanomolar activity against CDKs, Mek1, GSK3beta, and CK1 and micromolar activity against Chk1. In order to explore the broader application of the pyrrolo[2,3-c]azepine skeleton of HMD as a general kinase inhibitory scaffold, we searched for additional protein targets using affinity chromatography in conjunction with the synthesis of diverse HMD analogs and profiled HMD against a panel of 60 recombinant enzymes. This effort has led to nanomolar to micromolar inhibitors of 11 new targets including p90RSK, KDR, c-Kit, Fes, MAPK1, PAK2, PDK1, PKCtheta, PKD2, Rsk1, and SGK. The synthesis of HMD analogs has resulted in the identification of compounds with enhanced and/or dramatically altered selectivities relative to HMD (28n) and in molecules with antiproliferative activities 30-fold higher than HMD (28p).
