Synthesis and proteasome inhibition of lithocholic acid derivatives.

Journal Article

A new class of proteasome inhibitors was synthesized using lithocholic acid as a scaffold. Modification at the C-3 position of lithocholic acid with a series of acid acyl groups yielded compounds with a range of potency on proteasome inhibition. Among them, the phenylene diacetic acid hemiester derivative (13) displayed the most potent proteasome inhibition with IC(50) = 1.9 μM. Enzyme kinetic analysis indicates that these lithocholic acid derivatives are noncompetitive inhibitors of the proteasome.
