Bace1 in complex with the aminohydantoin Compound 4g
Structural highlights
FunctionBACE1_HUMAN Responsible for the proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). Cleaves at the N-terminus of the A-beta peptide sequence, between residues 671 and 672 of APP, leads to the generation and extracellular release of beta-cleaved soluble APP, and a corresponding cell-associated C-terminal fragment which is later released by gamma-secretase.[1] [2] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedA novel class of pyridinyl aminohydantoins was designed and prepared as highly potent BACE1 inhibitors. Compound (S)-4g showed excellent potency with IC(50) of 20 nM for BACE1. X-ray crystallography indicated that the interaction between pyridine nitrogen and the tryptophan Trp76 was a key feature in the S2' region of the enzyme that contributed to increased potency.
