Product Description
Gln-AMS is an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (AARS) inhibitor that binds to the nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) A domain.
Gln-AMS is an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (AARS) inhibitor that binds to the nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) A domain. With a molecular formula of C1₅H22N₈O₈S and a molecular weight of 474.45 g/mol, it is an adenosine monophosphate analog that inhibits glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (GlnRS) by mimicking the reaction intermediate and competitively binding to the enzyme's active site. Gln-AMS is widely used to explore amino acid activation chemistry and to investigate therapeutic strategies aimed at inhibiting AARS or NRPS functions in microbial pathogens.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
The primary target of Gln-AMS is glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (GlnRS), an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (AARS) that catalyzes the attachment of glutamine to its cognate tRNA. Gln-AMS acts as an adenosine monophosphate analog that mimics the reaction intermediate and competitively binds to the enzyme's active site. By inhibiting GlnRS, the compound blocks protein synthesis, making it a potential antibacterial agent. Gln-AMS also binds to the A-domain within nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) enzymes, which are involved in the biosynthesis of various natural products. The dual targeting of AARS and NRPS makes Gln-AMS a valuable tool for studying amino acid activation and microbial metabolism.
ln Vitro
In vitro studies demonstrate that Gln-AMS is an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (AARS) inhibitor that binds to the A-domain within NRPS enzymes. It inhibits glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (GlnRS) by mimicking the reaction intermediate and competitively binding to the enzyme's active site. By blocking GlnRS activity, the compound inhibits protein synthesis in bacteria. Gln-AMS is widely used to explore amino acid activation chemistry and to investigate therapeutic strategies aimed at inhibiting AARS or NRPS functions in microbial pathogens. Its mechanism of action as a reaction intermediate analog makes it a valuable tool for studying enzyme catalysis and inhibition.
ln Vivo
In vivo studies of Gln-AMS are limited, as it is primarily used as a research tool in biochemical and microbiological assays. However, given its potent inhibition of glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase and its ability to bind to NRPS A-domains, the compound may have potential as an antibacterial agent. Further in vivo studies are needed to evaluate its pharmacokinetic properties, bioavailability, and efficacy in animal models of bacterial infections. Gln-AMS may be used to study the role of AARS and NRPS in microbial pathogenesis and to validate these enzymes as therapeutic targets.
Enzyme Assay
For in vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays, Gln-AMS is evaluated using aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase activity assays that measure the attachment of glutamine to tRNA. The compound is incubated with recombinant GlnRS enzyme, glutamine, ATP, and tRNA at various concentrations. GlnRS activity is quantified by measuring the formation of glutaminyl-tRNA using radiometric or fluorescence-based methods. IC₅0 values are determined from dose-response curves. Binding affinity to GlnRS can be assessed using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) or isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). Binding to NRPS A-domains can be assessed using similar methods.
Cell Assay
For in vitro cellular experiments, Gln-AMS is tested in bacterial cells or cell-free systems to evaluate its effects on protein synthesis and cell growth. Cells are cultured in appropriate media and treated with various concentrations of the compound. Protein synthesis is measured by incorporation of radiolabeled amino acids or by using reporter systems. Bacterial growth is monitored by measuring optical density or colony-forming units. The compound's selectivity for bacterial versus mammalian AARS can be assessed. The compound's effects on NRPS-mediated biosynthesis can be evaluated in appropriate systems.
Animal Protocol
For in vivo animal experiments, Gln-AMS can be administered to animals via various routes including intravenous injection or intraperitoneal injection, depending on its solubility and pharmacokinetic properties. The compound's efficacy can be evaluated in animal models of bacterial infections. Typical dosing regimens may range from 1 to 50 mg/kg administered daily or intermittently. Bacterial load, survival, and inflammatory markers are assessed. Pharmacodynamic markers such as inhibition of protein synthesis or aminoacyl-tRNA formation are measured in tissues. Animal studies should follow appropriate ethical guidelines.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of Gln-AMS are not extensively characterized in the literature. As a nucleotide analog with a molecular weight of 474.45 g/mol, it would be expected to have limited oral bioavailability due to poor absorption and potential degradation. When administered systemically, the compound would likely be cleared by the kidneys and metabolized by various enzymes. Its half-life in circulation would depend on its stability and clearance mechanisms. Further pharmacokinetic studies would be needed to fully characterize its absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion profile in vivo.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for Gln-AMS are limited, as it is primarily a research tool. As an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase inhibitor, its toxicity would depend on the importance of glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase for normal cellular function. Inhibition of protein synthesis could have significant effects on cell viability and function. Comprehensive toxicology studies including acute and repeated-dose toxicity, genotoxicity, and cardiotoxicity assessments would be needed for further development. Appropriate safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, including the use of personal protective equipment and adherence to institutional safety guidelines.
