Phosphonic acid-containing inhibitors of tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1.

ABSTRACT: Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) repairs stalled type I topoisomerase (TOP1)-DNA complexes by hydrolyzing the phosphodiester bond between the TOP1 Y723 residue and the 3'-phosphate of its DNA substrate. Although TDP1 antagonists could potentially reduce the dose of TOP1 inhibitors needed to achieve effective anticancer effects, the development of validated TDP1 inhibitors has proven to be challenging. This may, in part, be due to the open and extended nature of the TOP1 substrate binding region. We have previously reported imidazopyrazines and imidazopyridines that can inhibit TDP1 catalytic function in vitro. We solved the TDP1 crystal structures with bound inhibitors of this class and found that the dicarboxylic acid functionality within the N-(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)-2-
