Unlocking the Power of Chemistry: A Revolutionary Screening Platform for Access to the Mirror Image

A major breakthrough in chemistry has been achieved with the development of a groundbreaking screening platform that allows access to the mirror image. This advancement opens up a world of possibilities for drug development, chemical reactions, and materials science.

The Fascinating World of Stereochemistry

Stereochemistry deals with the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms in molecules and their effect on chemical reactions. While most substances have two possible mirror-image forms, or enantiomers, accessing the mirror image has remained a challenge for chemists for many years.

The ability to work with both enantiomers is crucial in drug design and development. It has been discovered that a drug's efficacy, safety, and even side effects can be heavily influenced by the specific enantiomer used. In the past, chemists had to rely on tedious and time-consuming processes to access the desired enantiomer.

This thesis mainly describes the development of a screening process for a mirror-image library of chiral natural products. It demonstrates how, by using mirror-image proteins for the screening of available natural products, unavailable mirror-image isomers of natural products can be screened in a mirror process. Moreover, as mirror-image isomers including target proteins and natural products are mainly prepared by means of chemical synthesis, the screening strategy presented here suggests the importance of organic chemistry.

Natural products are commonly used as valuable resources for drug discovery. However, as they are mostly produced as single enantiomeric forms, researchers have tested o

nly natural products bearing one stereochemistry available in nature. As natural products and their enantiomers have identical physicochemical properties and different biological activities, mirror-image isomers of natural products are promising candidates for novel medicinal resources.

In an effort to identify anticancer agents from the mirror-image library, chemical protein syntheses of some target oncoproteins, MDM2, MDMX and Grb2, and their applications to the chemical array screening process were achieved. In the course of this process the NP843 enantiomer, which is the enantiomer of an α-tocopherol derivative, was successfully identified as a novel MDM2-p53 interaction inhibitor. These results clearly show that a mirror-image library of chiral natural products represents an invaluable medicinal resource. Accordingly, the chemistry-based screening strategy described in this thesis will be of great interest to a broad range of chemists involved in natural product, medicinal, and synthetic chemistry.
