Abstract:

A new series of sulfonamide flavone derivatives are designed as non-covalent inhibitors of proteasome assisted with computer-aided drug design (CADD). The desired compounds were synthesized successfully and the biological evaluation was subsequently accomplished. The results showed negligible improvement from our lead compound (IC50 for β5 subunit was 14.0 μM). Thus, these flavone derivatives might be improved as potential 20S proteasome inhibitors.

Key words: Sulfonamide flavone derivatives, Non-covalent inhibitor, CADD, 20S proteasome inhibitor, Selectivity
