Journal: J Med Chem / Year: 2022 Title: Discovery and Characterization of Potent Dual P-Glycoprotein and CYP3A4 Inhibitors: Design, Synthesis, Cryo-EM Analysis, and Biological Evaluations. Authors: Sameer Urgaonkar / Kamil Nosol / Ahmed M Said / Nader N Nasief / Yahao Bu / Kaspar P Locher / Johnson Y N Lau / Michael P Smolinski / Abstract: Targeted concurrent inhibition of intestinal drug efflux transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and drug metabolizing enzyme cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) is a promising approach to improve oral ...Targeted concurrent inhibition of intestinal drug efflux transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and drug metabolizing enzyme cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) is a promising approach to improve oral bioavailability of their common substrates such as docetaxel, while avoiding side effects arising from their pan inhibitions. Herein, we report the discovery and characterization of potent small molecule inhibitors of P-gp and CYP3A4 with encequidar (minimally absorbed P-gp inhibitor) as a starting point for optimization. To aid in the design of these dual inhibitors, we solved the high-resolution cryo-EM structure of encequidar bound to human P-gp. The structure guided us to prudently decorate the encequidar scaffold with CYP3A4 pharmacophores, leading to the identification of several analogues with dual potency against P-gp and CYP3A4. , dual P-gp and CYP3A4 inhibitor improved the oral absorption of docetaxel by 3-fold as compared to vehicle, while itself remained poorly absorbed.

In the structure databanks used in Yorodumi, some data are registered as the other names, "COVID-19 virus" and "2019-nCoV". Here are the details of the virus and the list of structure data.

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)
The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.

Yorodumi is a browser for structure data from EMDB, PDB, SASBDB, etc.
This page is also the successor to EM Navigator detail page, and also detail information page/front-end page for Omokage search.
The word "yorodu" (or yorozu) is an old Japanese word meaning "ten thousand". "mi" (miru) is to see.
