Discovery of 2-phenoxyacetamides as inhibitors of the Wnt-depalmitoleating enzyme NOTUM from an X-ray fragment screen.
Medchemcomm, 10:1361-1369, 2019

PubMed Abstract: NOTUM is a carboxylesterase that has been shown to act by mediating the -depalmitoleoylation of Wnt proteins resulting in suppression of Wnt signaling. Here, we describe the development of NOTUM inhibitors that restore Wnt signaling for use in disease models where NOTUM over activity is an underlying cause. A crystallographic fragment screen with NOTUM identified 2-phenoxyacetamide as binding in the palmitoleate pocket with modest inhibition activity (IC 33 μM). Optimization of hit by SAR studies guided by SBDD identified indazole (IC 0.032 μM) and isoquinoline (IC 0.085 μM) as potent inhibitors of NOTUM. The binding of to NOTUM was rationalized through an X-ray co-crystal structure determination which showed a flipped binding orientation compared to . However, it was not possible to combine NOTUM inhibition activity with metabolic stability as the majority of the compounds tested were rapidly metabolized in an NADPH-independent manner.
