RESUMEN

Four trimethylated acylphloroglucinols (5-8) have been isolated from ma̅nuka (Leptospermum scoparium) foliage. Apart from myrigalone A (8), which has previously been isolated from European bog myrtle (Myrica gale), these compounds have not been characterized before. The nortriketones are structurally similar to the bioactive tetramethylated ß-triketones from ma̅nuka, but have one less ring methyl group. Two oxidized trimethylated compounds, 9 and 10, were also isolated, but these are likely isolation artifacts. When evaluated for antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria, myrigalone A (8) was slightly less potent (MIC 64 µg/mL) than the corresponding tetramethylated compound, grandiflorone (4) (MIC 16-32 µg/mL). Unlike their tetramethylated analogues, the nortriketones were inactive against the herbicide target enzyme p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase. The Raman spectra of leaf oil glands in different ma̅nuka varieties can be used to distinguish plants that contain nortriketones from those that accumulate triketones.

RESUMEN

The molecular mechanism for 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (4-HPPD) inhibition by nitisinone, a recently approved new drug for the treatment of hereditary tyrosinemia type I, has been satisfactorily explained by its action as an analogue to the substrate 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate. In addition, a novel induced conformationally restricted 4-HPPD inhibitor, diketonitrile, which serves as a nonclassical bioisostere for rigid cyclic 1,3-diketone derivatives, has been introduced. Further application of the molecular mode of action of nitisinone in rational design of potential inhibitors for alpha-ketoglutarate-coupled dioxygenases is discussed.

RESUMEN

The synthetic beta-triketones are a novel family of chemicals, developed as herbicides that have activity on grass and broadleaf weeds and are selective in corn. Toxicological evaluation of a number of these chemicals has established that they interfere with rat hepatic tyrosine catabolism in vivo by inhibiting the enzyme 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD). This paper describes the kinetics of inhibition of rat hepatic HPPD in vitro by the representative beta-triketone 2-[2-nitro-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoyl]-4,4,6,6- tetramethylcyclohexane-1,3,5-trione (1). A marked inhibition of rat hepatic HPPD was observed when 1 was incubated with the enzyme for 3 min at 37 degrees C prior to the initiation of the enzyme reaction by the addition of substrate. In this system, a concentration of 200 nM 1 resulted in a > 90% loss of HPPD activity, and an apparent IC50 was established at approximately 50 nM. The rate constant for the inactivation of HPPD by 1 was (1.5 +/- 0.2) x 10(-5) s-1 nM-1 as determined by progress curve data of oxygen consumed by HPPD with time. This inhibition is reversible in that the enzyme-inhibitor complex slowly dissociates, with approximately 5.5 +/- 0.6% of the enzyme activity being recovered by 6 h at 25 degrees C (t1/2, 25 degrees C, estimated at 101 +/- 14 h). In short, our studies establish 1 to be a tight-binding inhibitor of rat hepatic HPPD in vitro. This inhibition is characterized by the rapid inactivation of HPPD by the formation of an enzyme-inhibitor complex that dissociates extremely slowly with recovery of enzyme activity.
