Molecular Recognition of Nucleotides in Water by Scorpiand‐Type Receptors Based on Nucleobase Discrimination

The detection of nucleotides is of crucial importance because they are the basic building blocks of nucleic acids. Scorpiand‐based polyamine receptors functionalized with pyridine or anthracene units are able to form stable complexes with nucleotides in water, based on coulombic, π–π stacking, and hydrogen‐bonding interactions. This behavior has been rationalized by means of an exploration with NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations. Binding constants were determined by potentiometry. Fluorescence spectroscopy studies have revealed the potential of these receptors as sensors to effectively and selectively distinguish guanosine‐5′‐triphosphate (GTP) from adenosine‐5′‐triphosphate (ATP).     

Cooperatively Enhanced Receptors for Biomimetic Molecular Recognition

The concept of preorganization suggests that organizing a receptor around its guest during binding is detrimental, because the cost of conformational change is assumed to be paid out of the binding energy. Although this concept has historically guided the synthesis of a great many synthetic hosts, in recent years, chemists have begun to synthesize receptors that resemble proteins in their cooperative conformational changes. Such changes could enhance the host–guest interactions, in particular if the binding of the guest triggers previously unengaged noncovalent interactions within the host. These hosts, referred to as cooperatively enhanced receptors, corroborate with their biological counterparts to support the approach of creating high‐affinity receptors through the combined strategies of cooperativity and preorganization. Solvents, often the invisible participants of any solution‐based supramolecular process, should be properly considered in the design of synthetic receptors, whether preorganized or cooperatively enhanced.     

Dramatic Enhancement of Binding Affinities Between Foldamer‐Based Receptors and Anions by Intra‐Receptor π‐Stacking

As a synthetic model for intra‐protein interactions that reinforce binding affinities between proteins and ligands, the energetic interplay of binding and folding was investigated using foldamer‐based receptors capable of adopting helical structures. The receptors were designed to have identical hydrogen‐bonding sites for anion binding but different aryl appendages that simply provide additional π‐stacking within the helical backbones without direct interactions with the bound anions. In particular, the presence of electron‐deficient aryl appendages led to dramatic enhancements in the association constant between the receptor and chloride or nitrate ions, by up to three orders of magnitude. Extended stacking within the receptor contributes to the stabilization of the entire folding structure of complexes, thereby enhancing binding affinities.     

Using combinatorial methods to arrive at a quantitative structure-stability relationship for a new class of one-armed cationic peptide receptors targeting the C-terminus of the amyloid beta-peptide

A new class of one-armed tripeptide based cationic guanidiniocarbonyl pyrrole receptors is shown to strongly bind the tetrapeptide L-Val-L-Val-L-Ile-L-Ala, representing the C-terminus of the amyloid beta-peptide even under polar conditions. A medium sized combinatorial library of 125 receptors was synthesized on a solid support and their binding properties determined on bead using a quantitative fluorescence assay. The binding constants are in the order of 10(3)-10(4) M-1 (in the presence of a formate counter ion in methanol) for the most efficient ones but differ by more than a factor of 100 among the 125 library members. Based on the binding data of 12 receptors a structure-stability relationship was established for peptide binding by this new receptor class. Complex formation is controlled by a fine balanced interplay of hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions with none of these two interactions alone being strong enough to ensure complexation under these polar conditions.     

Nanoparticles: scaffolds for molecular recognition

Monolayer and mixed-monolayer protected clusters (MPCs and MMPCs) have great potential to combine molecular functionality with the intrinsic properties of nanometer-sized scaffolds. This synergy can be used to create complex functional devices, including redox-active, electronic, or magnetic storage devices, solution-based sensors, and highly efficient catalysts. This review outlines some of the recent developments in nanoscale receptors based on synthetic and nonbiological recognition elements. In these nanoparticle systems, molecular recognition is achieved by covalent attachment of receptors on the nanoparticles coupled with noncovalent interactions to target substrates. Synthetic host-guest systems, hydrogen bonding, change in redox states, pi-pi stacking, rotaxane formation, and ion recognition are the main topics covered in this review.     

Electrophoretic affinity measurements on microchip. Determination of binding affinities between diketopiperazine receptors and peptide ligands

ACE on a microchip (MC-ACE) is introduced as a fast and reliable method to determine binding affinities. It is based on monitoring the change in the ionic mobility of a receptor upon binding to a ligand, or vice versa. The method is complementary to other standard methods for binding affinity determinations, like isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), NMR, UV-Vis spectroscopy, etc. and allows for affinity studies of weak to strong binding interactions. The method is attractive since it principally allows for the analysis of the binding affinity of multiple receptors to a given ligand and requires comparatively small quantities of the binding partners (particularly in comparison to affinity measurements on capillary). We demonstrate the applicability of MC-ACE for the determination of the binding affinities between acid-rich diketopiperazine receptors and basic tripeptides in aqueous solution.     

Large-scale prediction of drug–target interactions using protein sequences and drug topological structures

The identification of interactions between drugs and target proteins plays a key role in the process of genomic drug discovery. It is both consuming and costly to determine drug–target interactions by experiments alone. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new in silico prediction approaches capable of identifying these potential drug–target interactions in a timely manner. In this article, we aim at extending current structure–activity relationship (SAR) methodology to fulfill such requirements. In some sense, a drug–target interaction can be regarded as an event or property triggered by many influence factors from drugs and target proteins. Thus, each interaction pair can be represented theoretically by using these factors which are based on the structural and physicochemical properties simultaneously from drugs and proteins. To realize this, drug molecules are encoded with MACCS substructure fingerings representing existence of certain functional groups or fragments; and proteins are encoded with some biochemical and physicochemical properties. Four classes of drug–target interaction networks in humans involving enzymes, ion channels, G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and nuclear receptors, are independently used for establishing predictive models with support vector machines (SVMs). The SVM models gave prediction accuracy of 90.31%, 88.91%, 84.68% and 83.74% for four datasets, respectively. In conclusion, the results demonstrate the ability of our proposed method to predict the drug–target interactions, and show a general compatibility between the new scheme and current SAR methodology. They open the way to a host of new investigations on the diversity analysis and prediction of drug–target interactions.

Luminescent gold(I) complexes for chemosensing

With the rich spectroscopic and luminescence properties associated with aurophilic Au?Au interactions, gold(I) complexes have provided an excellent platform for the design of luminescent chemosensors. This review concentrates on our recent exploration of luminescent gold(I) complexes in host–guest chemistry. Through the judicious design and choice of the functional receptor groups, specific chemosensors for cations and/or anions have been obtained. Utilization of sensing mechanisms based on the on–off switching of Au?Au interactions and photoinduced electron transfer (PET) has been successfully demonstrated. The two-coordinate nature of gold(I) complexes has also been utilized for the design of ditopic receptors through connecting both cation- and anion-binding sites within a single molecule.
