Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] This invention relates to the field of medicinal chemistry, and more particularly to a cyclic compound library and a method for constructing the same. [Background technology]
[0002] Advances in disease characterization and target identification continue to propel drug discovery into uncharted territory. The number of new targets is constantly increasing—attractive from a pathophysiological standpoint, yet challenging to discover established small molecule compounds or biologics that modulate these target functions. One approach to addressing this challenge is to establish compound libraries in which small molecule compounds derived from conventional compound libraries are, in principle, biologically usable, enable cell permeability, and specifically bind to specific proteins (e.g., enzymes).
[0003] Compounds derived from DNA-coding libraries (DELs) are similar to small molecules, offering an opportunity to screen for one or more potential chemicals. The likelihood of discovering new chemical starting points has become very high. However, small molecules typically do not function well for protein-protein interactions. Protein interactions, on the other hand, tend to have expanded binding surfaces, and biologics are well-suited for such applications, often possessing superior selectivity and strong binding affinity.
[0004] Cyclic peptides are attracting attention as promising therapeutic candidates. They offer several key advantages over linear peptides. Typically, macrocyclicization restricts the conformational freedom of cyclic peptides, minimizing entropy during binding, allowing cyclic molecules to bind more strongly and specifically to target proteins. Furthermore, under protease hydrolysis conditions, cyclic peptides are more stable than linear molecules. Additionally, because cyclic peptides have a relatively wide range of structures, they may be effective in covering large, shallow interfaces involving protein-protein interactions that are difficult to target with conventional drug-like small molecules.
[0005] Currently, Reference 1 (Non-Patent Literature 1: Min Hyeon Shin, et al. Bioconjugate Chemistry, 2019, 30, 2931-2938) reports on the construction of a DNA-encoded cyclic mimetic peptide library, and describes a method for constructing such a library. However, the synthesis process relies on chloroacetic acid for the introduction of synthetic blocks at each step, and since the synthetic blocks consist only of low-molecular-weight compounds of primary amines with one reactive group -NH2, the number and type of atoms between each synthetic block are fixed, resulting in a repeating -CO-CH2-N- structural unit and a lack of diversity in the compound library. It has been demonstrated in many drug development studies that the length and type of carbon atoms between drugs significantly affect drug solubility and permeability. Furthermore, as shown in Reference 1, cyclic peptide libraries are mainly used for screening highly protein-protein interaction (PPI) inhibitors that rely on intramolecular or intermolecular hydrogen bonds formed by N atoms and oxygen atoms. The nitrogen atoms formed by the synthetic blocks bound to the cyclic compound library molecules are tertiary amines, exhibiting low or insufficient binding affinity to proteins. This indicates that the types of compound libraries are very limited and do not meet the need for diverse cyclic compound libraries for modern drug discovery. Furthermore, the difficulty in constructing cyclic compound libraries lies in the reaction that forms the ring at the first and last ends of the long chain structure. The cyclization method reported in Reference 1 is limited to chemical cyclization reactions, and since the compound library must be constructed with the DNA sequence supported to complete the cyclization, there are many constraints on chemical cyclization reactions. Moreover, because metal ions are used in the cyclization reaction, there is a possibility of chelation with the DNA molecule, which adversely affects the cyclization reaction. The use of metal ions in the cyclization reaction may adversely affect the stability of the DNA molecule, limiting the stability and accuracy of the screening results.
[0006] Furthermore, Reference 2 (Patent Document 1: CN102471772A) discloses a peptide library containing bicyclic peptides. Bicyclic peptide molecules possess the properties of antibodies, small molecule drugs, and peptides, exhibiting affinity and precise target specificity similar to antibodies. Simultaneously, their small molecular weight allows for rapid and deep penetration into tissues, enabling targeting of lesions from within the tissue. Due to their peptide properties, their pharmacokinetic half-life and renal clearance pathway are "modifiable," thus avoiding hepatic and gastrointestinal toxicity common to other drug forms. However, the technical approach disclosed in this document is a phage screening technique and is limited to natural amino acids, which is a limitation of this compound library.
[0007] Therefore, in this field, in order to obtain a richer cyclic compound library and increase the diversity of the compound library, it is necessary to establish milder and more universal cyclization reaction conditions and cyclization methods for other cyclic molecular structures, which are not limited to peptide-mimicking peptides. Furthermore, in order to directly screen target proteins and enhance the usefulness of the compound library, the establishment of compound library-target protein binding and complexation techniques is required in this field.

[Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0014] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a first technical solution: A method for constructing a cyclic compound library, including the following steps: 1) A solid support G is directly or indirectly bonded to a molecule M containing a photocleavable group to obtain GM: 2) Proceed with the following steps: a1. GM is reactively bonded to the ring-bound A-terminus molecule A to obtain GMA; b1. GMA is reactively bonded to a linker L1 having at least a trifunctional group to obtain GMA-L1; c1.

[ka] That is, we obtain the cyclic compound library S1.
[0015] In the first technical solution provided by the present invention, the resulting cyclic compound is removed from the solid support and DNA is encoded on the compound. The compound library obtained in this manner is suitable for conventional DEL screening modes, and the screened compounds need to be subjected to high-throughput sequencing.
[0016] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention also provides a second technical solution: A method for constructing a cyclic compound library, including the following steps: 1) A solid support G is directly or indirectly bonded to a molecule M containing a photocleavable group to obtain GM; 2) Proceed with the following steps: a2. GM is reactively bonded to a linker L1 having at least a trifunctional group to obtain GM-L1; b2.

The product obtained in the previous step is reacted with the ring-closed B-terminus molecule B and the closure primer CP to form the B-terminus molecule B C n+m Tag the closure primer CP n+m Combine them here. HP-OP-tag1-······-tag n+m -CP forms the complete DNA coding sequence, DNA-GM-L1(1(-C1······-C n -A)-C n+1 Da·····C n+m -B, i.e., compound library S2', is obtained; 3) The compound library S2' is subjected to a ring-closing reaction in the presence of cyclooxygenase, and the ring-closed A-terminus molecule A reacts with the ring-closed B-terminus molecule. [ka] That is, we obtain the cyclic compound library S2.
[0017] In the second technical solution, in step 2), the order of e2 and f2 can be swapped, i.e.: In one embodiment, the product tag obtained in step d2 n -···········tag1-OP-HP-GM-L1-C1-············································································································································ is n The ring-bound A-terminated molecule A is reacted with C n Combine them and tag n -···········tag1-OP-HP-GM-L1-C1-············································································································································ is n -A is obtained.

[0018] In the second technical solution provided by the present invention, the final compound is located on a solid support, and the DNA code is also located on the solid support. Therefore, all synthesis steps are performed on the solid support, and the quality of the compound library is better guaranteed. The compound library obtained with this solution can be applied to fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) screening. The screened cyclic compounds do not require high-throughput sequencing, and the screened cyclic compounds can be directly removed from the solid support using a degradation reaction under light irradiation, resulting in a shorter screening period and high efficiency.
[0019] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention further provides a third technical solution: A method for constructing a cyclic compound library, including the following steps: 1) A solid support G is directly or indirectly bonded to a molecule M containing a photocleavable group to obtain GM: 2) Proceed with the following steps: a3. GM is reactively bonded to a linker L1 having at least four functional groups to obtain GM-L1; b3. GM-L1 is sequentially reacted with the starting nucleotide molecule HP and the open primer OP to bind the starting nucleotide molecule HP to the linker L1, thereby obtaining GM-L1-HP-OP; c3. GM-L1-HP-OP is reacted with synthetic block C1 and the DNA tag tag1 corresponding to synthetic block C1, and synthetic block C1 is bound to L1 and DNA tag tag1 to OP to obtain GM-L1(-HP-OP-tag1)-C1; d3. Define the binding reaction of the corresponding synthetic block and DNA tag set as an extension step, and repeat the extension step so that the synthetic block is sequentially spliced to form a chain, and the DNA tag corresponding to the synthetic block is sequentially spliced to form a chain, so that GM-L1(-HP-OP-tag1-······-tag n )-C1-······-C n We obtain the following, where 2 ≤ n ≤ 7 and n is a positive integer; e3. The product obtained in the previous step is reacted with the ring-bound A-terminated molecule A, and the ring-bound A-terminated molecule A is converted to C n To combine; f3. Combine the product obtained in the previous step into synthesis block C n+1 ,······,C n+m and their corresponding DNA tags n+1 ,······,tag n+m The reaction is carried out sequentially according to the extension steps described, and synthesis block C n+1 Linker L1, DNA tag n+1 tag n Combine them; after steps e3 and f3, GM-L1(-HP-OP-tag1······-tag n+m )(-C1······-C n -A)-C n+1 ······-C n+m We obtain ; where 0 ≤ n ≤ 7, 0 ≤ m ≤ 7, n and m are integers, and 2 ≤ n + m ≤ 7. g3. The product obtained in the previous step is reacted with the ring-closed B-terminus molecule B and the closure primer CP to form the B-terminus molecule B C n+m Tag the closure primer CP n+m Combine them here. HP-OP-tag1-······-tag n+m -CP forms the complete DNA coding sequence, GM-L1(-DNA)(-C1······-C n -A)-C n+1 Da·····C n+m -B, i.e., obtain compound library S3'; 3) The compound library S3' is subjected to a ring-closing reaction in the presence of cyclooxygenase, and the ring-closed A-terminus molecule A reacts with the ring-closed B-terminus molecule. [ka] That is, we obtain the cyclic compound library S3.
[0020] In the third technical solution, in step 2), the order of e3 and f3 can be swapped, i.e.: In one embodiment, the product obtained in step d3 is GM-L1(-HP-OP-tag1-······-tag n )-C1······-C n The ring-bound A-terminated molecule A is reacted with C n Combined with GM-L1(-HP-OP-tag1-······-tag n )-C1······-C n -A is obtained. Next, GM-L1(-HP-OP-tag1-······-tag n )-C1······-C n -A, composite block C n+1 ,······,C n+m and their corresponding DNA tags n+1 ,······,tag n+m The reaction is carried out sequentially according to the extension steps described, and synthesis block C n+1 Linker L1, DNA tag n+1 tag n Combine them into GM-L1(-HP-OP-tag1······-tag n+m )(-C1······-C n -A)-C n+1 ······-C n+m To obtain; Alternatively, the product obtained in step d3, GM-L1(-HP-OP-tag1-······-tag n )-C1-······-Cn, composite block C n+1 ,······,C n+m and their corresponding DNA tags n+1 ,······,tag n+m The reaction is carried out sequentially according to the extension steps described, and synthesis block C n+1 Linker L1, DNA tag n+1 tag n Combine them into GM-L1(-HP-OP-tag1······-tag n+m )(-C1······-Cn)-C n+1 ······-C n+mNext, obtain GM-L1(-HP-OP-tag1······-tag n+m )(-C1······-Cn)-C n+1 ······-C n+m The ring-bound A-terminated molecule A is reacted with C n Combine them into GM-L1(-HP-OP-tag1······-tag n+m )(-C1······-C n -A)-C n+1 ······-C n+m To obtain.
[0021] In the third technical solution provided by the present invention, the quality of the compound library is better guaranteed because the final compound is on a solid support, the DNA encoding is also on the compound, and all synthesis steps are performed on the solid support. The library obtained by this method can be subjected to secondary screening by cleaving molecule M containing a photocleavable group. Secondary screening follows primary screening on the solid support, where the compound is removed from the solid support by cleaving molecule M containing a photocleavable group, the DNA is encoded into the library compound at this point, and the resulting compound library is subjected to secondary screening. Secondary screening can be a combination of different screening techniques, such as fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) screening, conventional targeted protein affinity screening, AS-MS screening, and any combination thereof, in order to improve the accuracy of the screening results.
[0022] In the third technical solution, the GM-L1(-DNA)(-C1······-C obtained in step g3 is used. n -A)-C n+1 ······-C n+m -B is decomposed under a light source to separate M from A, and DNA-L1(-C1-C n -A)-C n+1 ······-C n+m-B, i.e., compound library S4' can be obtained. Compound library S4' is subjected to a ring-closing reaction in the presence of cyclooxygenase, in which the ring-closing A-terminus molecule A reacts with the ring-closing B-terminus molecule B to form a ring. [ka] That is, a cyclic compound library S4 is obtained. Alternatively, the compound library S3 is subjected to a decomposition reaction under a light source to cleave M from L1, [ka] That is, compound S4 is obtained.
[0023] In the three technical solutions provided by the present invention, the solid support G is selected from one or more of PEG resin, PEGA resin, TentaGel resin, and solid support CPG.
[0024] In the first and third technical solutions, the solid support G contains one active functional group R1. The solid support G can be represented by the general formula G0-R1, where R1 represents the active functional group of the solid support G, and G0 represents the solid support structure of the solid support G other than the active functional group. The solid support G is directly or indirectly bonded to a molecule M containing a photocleavable group by this active functional group R1. R1 can be selected from: an amino group, a carboxyl group, or a hydroxyl group. In a preferred embodiment, the solid support G is selected from solid supports having an aminoactive functional group; that is, preferably, the active functional group R1 is selected from amino groups such as a primary amino group or a secondary amino group. More preferably, the active functional group R1 is selected from primary amino groups. More preferably, the solid support is selected from PEGA.
[0025] In the second technical solution, the solid support G contains two activating functional groups R1 and R1'. The solid support G can be represented by the general formula R1'-G0-R1, where R1 represents an activating functional group for binding to linker L1, and R1' represents an activating functional group for binding to the DNA coding sequence. In a preferred embodiment, R1 is an amino group and R1' is a carboxyl group.
[0026] In the three technical solutions provided by the present invention, the molecule M containing a photocleavable group contains at least two activating functional groups, each represented by R2 and R3. The molecule M containing a photocleavable group can be represented by the general formula R2-M0-R3, where R2 and R3 represent two independent activating functional groups. R2 is an activating functional group responsible for bonding to the solid support G, and R3 is an activating functional group responsible for bonding to the ring-closing A-terminus molecule A or to the linker L1 bond. R2 and R3 exist independently in a protected or unprotected form, and R2 and R3 do not interfere with each other's bonding reactions. In particular, R3 primarily does not interfere with the reaction process of R2 in relation to the solid support G, or R3 is in a protected form when R2 reacts in relation to the solid support G.
[0027] In a preferred embodiment, R2 exists in an unprotected form and R3 exists in a protected form. After R2 binds to the solid support G to obtain GM, the protecting group of R3 needs to be removed before the next reaction.
[0028] The solid support G can be bonded to a molecule M containing a photocleavable group in two ways. One method is to obtain GM by a direct complementary pair-forming reaction of R2 with R1. A complementary pair-forming reaction is a reaction in which two activated functional groups react such that the chemical structures in which the two activated functional groups are located are covalently bonded, for example, by covalently bonding two molecules to form one molecule. Based on different reaction principles, R1 can have all or part of its fragment removed when it reacts with R2. For example, R1 can remove a water molecule when it bonds with R2; or, for example, when an addition reaction occurs, R1 reacts with R2 without removing its fragment. When R1 reacts with R2 by direct complementary pair-forming, the following combinations can be selected: amino group and carboxyl group, amino group and hydroxyl group, amino group and phosphate group, amino group and alkyl or aryl halogenated group, etc.
[0029] Alternatively, R2 may indirectly bond with R1 via another linker having two functional groups to obtain GM. For example, a linker having two functional groups may have two activating groups, the first of which can react by complementary pair formation with the activating group R1 of the solid support G, and the second of which can react by complementary pair formation with the activating group R2 of molecule M containing a photocleavable group. The reaction process can take two forms: in the first, the first activating group is reactively bonded to the activating functional group R1 of the solid support G, and then the second activating group is reactively bonded to the activating functional group R2 of molecule M containing a photocleavable group; in the second, the second activating group is reactively bonded to the activating functional group R2 of molecule M containing a photocleavable group, and then the first activating group is reactively bonded to the activating functional group R1 of the solid support G to obtain the indirectly bonded GM. In the indirect connection method, it is no longer required that R2 and R1 have a complementary pair relationship.
[0030] In the molecule M containing a photocleavable group, the photocleavable group is preferably: [ka] Here, R3 is located on the C atom directly bonded to the benzene ring of the side chain adjacent to the nitro group; R2 is [ka] R2 is located at the position and bonded to a C atom on the benzene ring, and R2 is spaced apart by one or more covalent bonds, or R2 is spaced apart by one or more covalent bonds to the C atom to which R3 is bonded; the benzene ring may contain zero, one or more side chains or substituents that do not interfere with the bonding reaction of R2 and R3.
[0031] Molecule M, containing this photocleavable group, can cleave the chemical bond between R3 and the C atom to which R3 is bonded under appropriate light conditions. Molecule M, containing the photocleavable group, can be decomposed at 365 nm.
[0032] In some preferred embodiments, the molecule M containing the photocleavable group can be selected from the following structures: [ka] In the above structure, R3 can be selected from -OH, -NH2, -NHNH2, -N3, Cl, Br, etc. In the above structure, R2 is represented by a carboxyl group.

The reaction solvent is an organic solvent such as dichloromethane or N,N-dimethylformamide; the reaction temperature is 15-30°C, preferably 20-25°C; and the reaction time is 1-12 hours, preferably 2-6 hours. Next, the amino group protected by the protecting group of the low molecular weight compound having the difunctional group is deprotected and reacted with a molecule M containing a photocleavable group to bond it; the protecting group of the amino group is preferably an Fmoc protecting group; the reaction solvent for deprotection is an organic solvent such as dichloromethane or N,N-dimethylformamide, and piperidine is added to the reaction solvent; the reaction temperature is 15-30°C, preferably 20-25°C; and the reaction time is 1-12 hours, preferably 1-6 hours. Next, after deprotection, it bonds with molecule M containing a photocleavable group; after deprotection, the difunctional low molecular weight compound provides an activated functional amino group, and molecule M containing the photocleavable group provides an activated functional carboxyl group, resulting in the formation of an amide bond through the reaction; the reaction solvent is an organic solvent, for example, N,N'-diisopropylcarbodiimide (DIC), 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt), or 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) are added to the reaction solvent; the reaction temperature is 15-30°C, preferably 20-25°C; and the reaction time is 1-12 hours, preferably 1-6 hours.

R5 is located on molecular fragment A0, which is maintained in the ring structure during the cyclization reaction. In the reaction with R3, R4 is the first to be spliced, so it is mainly required that R5 does not interfere with the reaction process in which R4 binds to R3 of molecule M containing a photocleavable group, or that R5 is in a protected form with a protecting group in the reaction in which R4 binds to molecule M containing a photocleavable group.

[0080] In a preferred embodiment, the synthesis block is an Fmoc-amino acid.
[0081] In a preferred embodiment, at least one of the synthesis blocks includes a backbone structure having an E3 ligase substrate structure capable of binding to an E3 ligase. A library of compounds having an E3 ligase substrate structure applicable to PROTAC enables versatile screening of the library.
[0082] In some specific embodiments, the backbone structure is selected from the following: [ka]
[0083] In a preferred embodiment, each of the synthesis blocks comprises at least one cyclic outer chain in total. The cyclic outer chain expands the diversity of the compound library and provides a wider variety of library compounds.
[0084] In a preferred embodiment, each of the synthetic blocks comprises at least two ring-closing side chains in total, and at least two cyclic outer chains are joined by a chemical reaction to form a bicyclic structure. The ring-closing reaction of the two cyclic outer chains may occur before or after the enzymatic ring-closing reaction. The formation of a bicyclic structure consisting of two cyclic outer chains can be carried out in all three technical solutions provided by the present invention.

In the extension step, the splicing reaction of the DNA tag and the corresponding synthetic block is completed so that the strand of the synthetic block and the strand of the DNA tag are extended, respectively. In the extension step, the splicing reaction of the DNA tag may be performed to extend the strand of the DNA tag, followed by the splicing reaction of the corresponding synthetic block to extend the strand of the synthetic block, or the splicing reaction of the synthetic block may be performed to extend the strand of the synthetic block, followed by the splicing reaction of the corresponding DNA tag to extend the strand of the DNA tag.

[0087] In the three technical solutions provided by the present invention, the ring-bound B-terminus molecule B is a compound having a double activating functional group. The ring-bound B-terminus molecule B can be represented by the general formula R10-B0-R11. R10 is the activating functional group used for reactive splicing with the second activating functional group of the final synthetic block, and R11 is the activating functional group used for the cyclic reaction. R10 and R11 exist independently in a protected or unprotected form, and R10 and R11 do not interfere with each other's bonding reaction. Since R10 is the first to react with the second activating functional group of the final synthetic block to be spliced, the main requirement is that R11 does not interfere with the reaction process of bonding R10 to the second activating functional group of the final synthetic block, or that R10 is in a protected form during the reaction process of bonding R10 to the second activating functional group of the final synthetic block.
[0088] In a preferred embodiment, R10 exists in an unprotected form and R11 exists in a protected form. R10 reacts first with the second activating functional group of the final synthetic block to perform splicing. If R11 is used in the ring-closing reaction, the protecting group of R11 is removed first before the ring-closing reaction.

This can constitute the compound library S1''. Compound library S1'' contains a solid support G and has not yet formed the desired ring structure. R10 is C n It reacts with the second activating functional group and is spliced, while the other activating functional group R11 is at the free end of the ring-closed B-terminus molecule B.

This can constitute the compound library S2'. R10 is C nIt reacts with the second activating functional group and is spliced. Another activating functional group, R11, is at the free end of the closed-ring B terminus of molecule B.
[0093] In the third technical solution, the closed-loop primer OP and the closed-ring B-terminal molecule B are spliced and separated and purified, so that -G-M-L1(-DNA)(-C1······-C n -A)-C n+1 ······-C n+m -B, that is, the compound library S3' is obtained. R10 reacts with the second activating functional group of C n and is spliced. Another activating functional group R11 is at the free end of the closed-ring B-terminal molecule B.

[0095] In a preferred embodiment, the closed-ring B-terminal molecule B is a peptide chain consisting of 2 to 10 amino acids.
[0096] In some specific embodiments, the closed-ring B-terminal molecule B is a Fmoc-protected dipeptide.
[0097] In some specific embodiments, the molecular structure of the closed-ring B-terminal molecule B has amino acid residues GL (Gly-Leu-), LL (Leu-Leu-), QL (Gln-Leu-), KL (Lys-Leu-), GF (Gly-Phe-), GI (Gly-Ile-), FSA, VGAG, GV, GF, GM.
[0098] In the technical solution provided by the present invention, in the first technical solution, the bond between M and A in G-M-A-L1(-DNA)-C1-······-Cn-B is cleaved by photo-cleavage, and A-L1(-DNA)-C1-······-C n-B is obtained, and this compound itself constitutes compound library S1'. Compound library S1' does not contain the solid support G and has not yet formed the desired ring structure.
[0099] In the technical solution provided by the present invention, compound libraries S1', S2', or S3' are subjected to a ring-closing reaction in the presence of cyclooxygenase, thereby the ring-closing A-terminus molecule A reacts with the ring-closing B-terminus molecule B to form a peptide bond and a ring. In the ring-forming reaction, the free terminal activated functional group of the ring-closing B-terminus molecule B reacts with the ring-closing A-terminus molecule A, removing some or all of the molecular fragment of the ring-closing A-terminus molecule, and the free terminal activated functional group of the ring-closing B-terminus molecule B binds to the remaining portion from which the fragment was removed to form a ring structure.
[0100] The cyclooxygenase described in the present invention refers to an enzyme that reacts two terminal amino acid residues in a molecule to form a peptide bond connecting them. Preferably, the cyclic synthase is a cyclic peptide synthase, which is an enzyme that catalyzes the dehydration reaction between the N-terminal amino group of one terminal amino acid residue and the C-terminal α-carboxyl group of the other terminal amino acid residue in the molecule to form a cyclic polypeptide.
[0101] The cyclooxygenase is selected from ligases VyPAL2, Butelase1, PatG, PagG, ominiligase-1, PCY1, or OaAEP1B&3-5.
[0102] In particular, Butelase 1 is a specific aspartic acid / aminyl ligase that efficiently catalyzes intramolecular or intermolecular cyclization of linear polypeptides having an Asx(Asp / Asn)-His-Val tripeptide sequence at the carboxyl terminus. Butelase 1 cleaves the His-Vai dipeptide from the carboxyl terminus of the linear polypeptide and then attaches it to the amino terminus to form a cyclic structure.
[0103] In some specific embodiments, the temperature of the enzymatic cyclization reaction is 25 to 45°C; preferably, the temperature of the enzymatic cyclization reaction is 30 to 45°C; more preferably, the temperature of the enzymatic cyclization reaction is 35 to 40°C.

[0106] In some specific embodiments, the pH is adjusted using sodium acetate buffer during the enzymatic ring-closing reaction.
[0107] In some specific embodiments, disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate or a solution thereof (0.05 M) is added to the enzymatic ring-closing reaction.

[0110] In this invention, linker L1 is used to provide at least three activating functional groups that link 1) a DNA coding sequence, 2) an A-terminal molecule A, and 3) a synthetic block and a B-terminal molecule B. The amino acid residue structures of A-terminal molecule A and B-terminal molecule B are used to complete cyclization in the presence of cyclooxygenase, resulting in milder cyclization conditions and greater universality, expanding the chemical reaction types and diversity of the encoded compound library.
[0111] The present invention provides a method for constructing a library of cyclic compounds, where the number and types of atoms provided by each synthetic block in the cyclic structure are highly adjustable, and each synthetic block can be spliced using an amide bond (-CO-NH-), providing more hydrogen bonding possibilities for the cyclic structure. This can contribute to improving the binding of the cyclic structure to proteins.
[0112] The present invention provides a method using photocleavage under mild reaction conditions, which effectively avoids the detrimental effects on DNA coding sequence stability that occur due to removal of solid-phase synthesis under other harsh conditions.
[0113] The present invention provides a method for synthesizing DNA-coding compounds using solid-phase support-borne DNA-coding compounds. The post-processing and purification steps of the reaction are simple, usually requiring only a few simple filtration and washing operations. As a result, the post-processing and separation / purification steps of each reaction step are simplified, significantly shortening the synthesis period (cycle time) of the DNA-coding compound library and enabling substantial cost reductions.
[0114] In the compound library synthesis method of the present invention, a DNA coding sequence is bound to a linker attached to the compound library, and then the DNA coding sequence is bound. The synthesis ratio of the starting nucleotide molecule HP to the docking compound is approximately 1:250, which significantly reduces the DNA administration ratio and saves costs.
[0115] In the compound library synthesis method of the present invention, each step corresponding to DNA tag splicing requires the removal of the remaining 249 copies of unspliced DNA, followed by the binding of the synthetic block to its corresponding DNA tag by alternately reacting one of the dual-activating functional groups of the synthetic block having a protecting group with the synthetic block. The deprotecting group can simultaneously close the reaction sites of the compound library of unspliced DNA, facilitating the removal of excess DNA, reducing interference, exhibiting a purification effect, and improving the efficiency and uniqueness of DNA coding and the purity of the final product.
[0116] The present invention also provides a method for constructing a library of bicyclic compounds by using linker L1 of the three technical solutions described above as a linker having at least five functional groups. Here, one functional group of linker L1 is used to directly or indirectly link the DNA coding sequence, and the other four functional groups of linker L1 are used to allow or prevent dry linkage with the synthetic block before linking two ring-closed A-termined molecules A, A and two ring-closed B-termined molecules B, B', respectively. Finally, two ring-closing reactions are carried out in the presence of cyclooxygenase 1 and cyclooxygenase 2 to ring-close two pairs of ring-closed A-termined molecule A and ring-closed B-termined molecule B, A-termined molecule A' and ring-closed B-termined molecule B', to obtain a library of bicyclic compounds.
[0117] The relationship between cyclooxygenase and its ring-closing A-terminus and B-terminus is as follows: If cyclooxygenase is OaAEP1B&3-5, the A-terminus can be selected from: NFL, NAL, NGL, NHL, DFL, DAL, DGL, DHL; the B-terminus can be selected from: GL (Gly-Leu-), LL (Leu-Leu-), QL (Gln-Leu-), KL (Lys-Leu-), GF (Gly-Phe); if cyclooxygenase is VyPAL2, the A-terminus is selected from NSL and the B-terminus is GI Selected from; if cyclooxygenase is Butelase1, the A-terminus is selected from NHV and the B-terminus is GIThe following are selected from: if the cyclooxygenase is PatG, the A-terminus is selected from FAGDDAE; if the cyclooxygenase is ominiligase-1, the A-terminus is selected from OCam-Leu, OCam-; if the cyclooxygenase is PCY1, the A-terminus is selected from FQA, IQT and the B-terminus is selected from FSA, VGAG. Specifically, in the three technical solutions described above, step f2 or f3 is performed two more times to ligate the ring-closed A-terminus molecule A and the ring-closed B-terminus molecule B, respectively, before reacting with the closure primer CP.

LCMS: 1238.70 (M+H) + .
[0195] Compounds 10, 11, and 12 were synthesized according to the method of the above examples. The structures of the compounds according to the LC-MS validation table are as follows:
[0196] [Table 1]
[0197] <Example 26: Evaluation of membrane permeability> For the cyclic peptide compounds 9-12 obtained in the above examples, an MDCK model was established to measure their membrane permeability. The MDCK cell line is derived from the Martins D'Arby canine epithelial cell line, and the MDCK cell monolayer is the most suitable cytological model for investigating the process of drug absorption and reabsorption in the renal tubules in vivo. The MDCK cells were digested and dispersed in a culture flask, and 5 × 10⁶ cells were added to Millicell CPI. 4 cells / cm 2 The cells were inoculated, and 400 μL of MEM culture medium containing 10% FBS was added to side A (luminal side, apical side) and 800 μL to side B (basal side). The cells were then cultured at 37°C in an incubator containing 5% CO2. The culture medium was changed daily, and care was taken to avoid contact between the pipette gun and the cell membrane to prevent damage to the cell layer. To detect the integrity of the cell monolayer, the transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) was measured periodically using Millicell2ERS.
[0198] A→B translocation from the apical (A) to the basolateral (B) end of an MDCK cell monolayer membrane. In the A→B assay, 450 μL of drug or positive control HEPES solution was added to the apical end of the membrane as the supply pool, and 1300 μL of blank HEPES solution was added to the basolateral end as the recipient pool. The Transwell plate was placed on a 37°C incubator and shaken. After 90 minutes, the supply and recipient cell sample solutions were removed, and proteins were precipitated by adding ethyl i-wet. After vortexing, the solution was centrifuged and transferred, and the permeability was measured by LC / MS. The membrane permeability coefficient (Papp) was calculated based on this permeability. Papp (Apparent permeability) is a specific evaluation parameter, and is 1 × 10⁻⁶ -6 If the rate is 10 cm / s or higher, more than 60% of the drug can be absorbed. -6 If the current is above cm / s, more than 80% of drug molecules can be absorbed.
[0199] [Table 2]
[0200] From the data above, the Papp value of the synthesized compound is 10 -6 That concludes the explanation. The Papp values for compound 9 and compound 11 are 10 × 10 -6 In summary, it can be seen that it exhibits superior cell permeability.

[0207] <Example 29: Verification of DNA primer stability during multiple rounds of extension steps> The synthetic blocks are sequentially spliced to form extended chains according to the extension steps described in this specification, and the DNA tags corresponding to the synthetic blocks are sequentially spliced to form extended chains. Multiple rounds of synthesis were performed according to the resin synthesis method and library construction method described in the preceding paragraph of this application. The library compounds synthesized in rounds 4, 5, and 7 were subjected to PCR, and the PCR products were detected by agarose gel electrophoresis.
[0208] Here, PCR was performed using four rounds of DNA-containing resin-based primers (TGACTCCCAAATCGATGTG,GCAGGTGAAGCTTGTCTGACAATAGGCTAAA), 2×taq master mix, and distilled water. The obtained PCR products were detected by agarose gel electrophoresis (PCR product band size: 85 bp).

Figures 1-3 show that the purity of PCR in synthesis rounds 4, 5, and 7 is high, which indicates that the mild reaction conditions in the synthesis method of the present invention, particularly the ring-closing reaction conditions, contribute to maintaining the stability of the DNA molecule, and therefore the stability and accuracy of the screening results of the compound library constructed in the present invention are better.

The incubation system was placed in a magnetic rack and the supernatant was discarded; the PCR tube was removed, 20 μL was resuspended in 100 μL of PBST, placed in the magnetic rack, and the supernatant was discarded; this procedure was repeated 5 times. 20 μL was resuspended in 40 μL of PBST, transferred to a new PCR tube, and placed in a water bath at 72°C for 5 minutes. The PCR tube was placed in a magnetic rack and the supernatant was transferred to a new PCR tube; 10 μL of pre-treated beads were added to the supernatant and incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes; the supernatant was used for subsequent screening.

[0223] <Example 32: NGS analysis of PCR samples> The NGS analysis of the PCR sample described in Example 31 was performed as follows. 1. Library Construction: Library construction was performed using a kit. The specific procedure is as follows: Library construction was performed directly using more than 50 ng of PCR-purified product (stock solution needs to be gel-cut or purified with magnetic beads). End repair (including phosphorylation of the 5' end and A' addition of the 3' end) was performed using End Prep Enzyme Mix, and adapters were added to both ends. Subsequently, the fragments were purified using DNA Clean Beads, and finally amplified using P5 and P7 primers. Library quality was examined using a Qseq 100 Bioanalyzer (Bioptic, Taiwan, China), and library concentration was examined using Qubit3.0. 2. Sequencing: The DNA library was mixed, and sequencing information was read according to Illumina Novaseq (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA) using NovaSeq Control Software (NCS) + OLB + GAPipeline-1.6, which is included with NovaSeq. 3. Data Analysis - Sequencing Data Quality Analysis: Raw data from downstream instruments was subjected to preliminary statistical analysis. Next, the raw data was optimized using Cutadapt[l] (version 1.9.1) software to remove primer and junction sequences, bases with quality values less than 20 at both ends, and sequences with an N base ratio greater than 10%, and the clean data after QC was statistically analyzed. Qean reads were merged using Pandaseq[2] (version 2.7) based on the overlap region of Read1 and Read2 to create a complete sequence, and the length distribution of the merged sequence was statistically analyzed.
[0224] Data splitting: The data was split according to the barcode sequence, and the splitting results were statistically analyzed.
[0225] Tag Sequence Abundance Statistics: Tag sequences were obtained by anchoring them according to the constant region sequences upstream and downstream of the tag sequence. The tag sequences were divided into sequence units corresponding to different building blocks, and each sequence unit was analyzed to determine whether it belonged to a collection of DNA sequences corresponding to the building block. If it did, the sequence was extracted, and abundance statistics were performed.
[0226] As can be seen from the attached Figure 5, there was a significant difference in abundance values, and sequences with a higher number of repeats were selected for subsequent validation.
[0227] <Example 33: SPR analysis of screened compounds> 1. Protein fixation: An NTA microarray was used to immobilize the protein. Before immobilization, the microarray was activated by regenerating it with 0.5 M EDTA (pH 8.0) and 100 mM NaOH for 120 seconds each. The KRAS protein was diluted to 5 μg / mL in analysis buffer, and the flow rate was set to 10 μL / min. The KRAS protein was captured by injecting the sample into the test channel for 360 seconds, and the test channel was washed with PBS buffer for 90 seconds until the protein capture was stable.
[0228] 2. Sample test conditions: A PBS buffer pH 7.4 containing 0.05% Tween-20 and 5% DMSO was used as the running buffer. This running buffer was used as the control sample, and sequential concentrations were set (0.1953 μM, 0.3906 μM, 0.7812 μM, 1.5625 μM, 3.125 μM, 6.25 μM, 12.5 μM, 25 μM, 50 μM, 100 μM). The flow rate was 30 μL / min, the binding time was 90 seconds, and the dissociation time was 300 seconds. In addition, eight gradient concentrations of DMSO-containing buffer were prepared for solvent correction.
[0229] 3. Parameter fitting: The experiment involved plotting the response signal on the x-axis with analysis time and the y-axis with the response value, and was performed over multiple cycles. After solvent correction, the obtained data were subjected to a two-parameter deduction and fitted using BIAcore T200 analysis software. The fitted model used a 1:1 Langmuir binding model to determine the binding-dissociation constant and other affinity indices. The dissociation constant indices are shown in Table 4.
[0230] [Table 6]
[0231] Conclusion: The graph of the test results is shown in Figure 6. From the data in the table, it was found that the compounds screened from the library had a certain binding ability to the target protein, proving that the target compounds were captured.
