An efficient synthetic route for preparing novel $4'{\alpha}$-C phenyl branched carbocyclic nucleoside is described. The installation of phenyl group at the $4'$-position of carbocyclic nucleoside was successfully accomplished via a sequential [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement and ring-closing metathesis (RCM) beginning from simple ketone such as 2-hydroxy acetophenone.

The first synthetic route to 5'-norcarbocyclic C-nucleoside [7-oxa-7,9-dideazadenosine (furo[3,2-d]pyrimidine) and 9-deazaadenosine (pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidine)] phosphonic acids from commercially available 1,3-dihydroxy cyclopentane was described. The key C-C bond formation from sugar to base precursor was performed using Knoevenagel-type condensation from a ketone derivative. Synthesized C-nucleoside phosphonic acids were tested for anti-HIV activity as well as anti-leukemic activity. Compound 26 showed significant anti-leukemic activity.

Novel mercaptophenyl carbocyclic C-nucleoside analogue was synthesized via a cyclopentenol intermediate 10, which was prepared using a sequential [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement and ring-closing metathesis (RCM). Friedel-Crafts alkylation was then used to couple the thiophenol.

The molecular weight of the purified nucleoside oxidase estimated by gel filtration column chromatography was 480,000 and the enzyme protein was composed of four nonidentical subunits (81,000, 69,000, 32,000 and 16,000). On the basis of the visible absorption spectra and the enzymatic determination of the purified enzyme, the enzyme was supposed as a hemoprotein and also a flavoprotein containing 3 moles of FAD per I mole of enzyme. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was pH 5.1. Addition of metal salts such as 1 mM SnCl$_{2}$ and PbCl$_{2}$ into an enzyme reaction solution inhibited the enzyme activity by 94 and 90%, respectively. The enzyme activity was also lost significantly by hemoenzyme inhibitors such as NaCN and NaN$_{3}$ and flavoenzyme inhibitor, acriflavine and quinacrine. The maximal nucleoside oxidase activity was observed at pH 7.0 and 55$\circ$C. The nucleoside oxidase was relatively stable in the range of pH 5.5-9.0 and below 55$\circ$C.

The present study aimed to investigate the interaction of nucleoside analogs with human organic anion transporter 1 and 3(hOAT1 and hOAT3) that play a primary role in the tubular uptake of endogenous and exogenous organic anions in the kidney. The interactions of ddC, ara-C, ara-A and ara-U with hOAT1 and hOAT3 were examined using MDCK cells stably overexpressing hOAT1 or hOAT3. Among the tested drugs, ddC showed the highest affinity to hOAT1 with $IC_{50}$ values of 5.2 mM, while ara-A, ara-C and ara-U weakly inhibited the cellular uptake of $[^3H]-PAH$ in MDCK-hOAT1 cells at 1 mM. In contrast, all the tested drugs did not have any inhibition effect on the cellular uptake of $[^3H]-estrone$ sulfate in MDCK-hOAT3 cells over the drug concentration of 0.01-2 mM, implying that they might not interact with hOAT3. Taken all together, the present study suggests that hOAT1 could weakly interact with nucleoside analogues such as ddC, ara-C, ara-A and ara-U but the interaction with hOAT3 during the urinary excretion of these nucleoside analogues may be negligible in the kidney.

An efficient synthetic route of novel 2′(${\alpha}$)-C-fluoro-2′(${\beta}$)-C-methyl carbocyclic nucleoside analogues is described. The key fluorinated intermediate 7 was prepared from the epoxide intermediate 5 via selective ring-opening of epoxide. Coupling of 7 with nucleosidic bases under the Mitsunobu reactions followed by deprotection afforded the target carbocyclic nucleoside analogues. The synthesized compounds were evaluated as inhibitors of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) in Huh-7 cell line in vitro.

더덕의 재배는 수익성이 높고 재배면적도 증가하지만 수요를 만족시킬 만큼 공급이 따르지 못하고 있다. 또한 재 배 상의 어려운점은 병충해, 기계수확에 의한 대규모 재배를 더욱더 곤란하게 하고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 문제점 및 환경적 스트레스에 저항하여 자랄 수 있는 식물체를 얻기 위해 더덕의 cDNA를 분석하여 스트레스 관한 유전자 Nucleoside diphosphates kinase 1(NDK 1)을 분리하여 분석하여 148개의 아미노산 서열과 다른 식물체들의 NDK 1과 높은 유사성을 가진다는 것을 알았고, 더덕의 각 조직에서 나타나는 ClNDK1의 발현을 알아보기 위해 캘러스, 잎, 줄기, 뿌리 조직의 전체 RNA를 추출하여 cDNA를 합성하고 PCR을 수행하였다 RT­PCR 분석 결과, ClNDK1은 조직 특이성 없이 캘러스, 잎, 줄기, 뿌리 조직에 대해서 모두 발현이 되었으며, 발현량, 역시 큰 차이 없이 모든 조직에서 동일하게 발현되었다. NDKs 는 환경 스트레스에 저항성을 가진다고 알려져 있지만 NDK 1 대한 연구는 아직까지 부족한 상태이다. 우리는 더덕에서 분리한 ClNDK1의 스트레스 저항성에 대해서 지속적으로 연구를 수행 할 것이다.

The discovery of 2'-spirocyclopropyl-ribocytidine (J. Med. Chem. 2010, 53, 8150-8160) as a potent inhibitor of RNA synthesis by NS5B ($IC_{50}=7.3{\mu}M$), the RNA polymerase encoded by hepatitis C Virus (HCV), has led to the synthesis and biological evaluation of several carbocyclic versions of 2'-spiropropyl-nucleosides. The cyclopentenol intermediate 7 was successfully constructed via ring-closing metathesis (RCM) from divinyl 6. Spirocyclopropanation of enone 8 was effected by using (2-chloroethyl)-dimethylsulfonium iodide and potassium tert-butoxide to form the desired intermediate 9. The synthesized nucleoside analogues 21-24 were assayed for their ability to inhibit HCV RNA replication in a subgenomic replicon Huh7 cell line. Among them, the cytosine nucleoside analogue 22 exhibited significant anti-HCV activity ($EC_{50}= 8.2{\mu}M$).

Nucleoside계통의 유도체를 합성하여 체내 DNA 또는 RNA 합성대사에 영향을 줌으로써 궁극적으로 항암성 또는 항 virus성 작용을 나타내는 화합물을 얻고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 천연의 nucleoside 구조중에서 특히 당부분에 변형을 준 일련의 acyclonucleoside 유도체들을 합성하였다. 이는 그간 많이 연구되어온acyclonucleoside 계열인 acyclovir계와는 달리 ribose 당부분을 $C_1$에서 $C_{5}$까지 거리가 유사한 acycloalkyl 결합형태로 결합하고 3'위치에 변형을 가져온 pyrimidine계 유도체를 합성하고자 일련의 반응을 시도하였다. 목적하는 화합물 계열을 얻지 못하고, 몇종류의 관련 유도체들을 분리하여 구조를 규명하고자 하였고, 이들중 일부에 대해 in vitro L1210 cell 증식억제효과를 검색하여 그 결과를 보고하고자 한다.
