Özet
Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) is an industrially important enzyme associated with browning reactions. In the present study, a set of ten new dihydropyridine [2,3-d] pyrimidines (TD-Hid-1-10) were synthesized and was found to be proven characteristically by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR, elemental analysis, and assessed as possible PPO inhibitors. PPO was purified from banana using three-phase partitioning, achieving an 18.65-fold purification and 136.47% activity recovery. Enzyme kinetics revealed that the compounds TD-Hid-6 and TD-Hid-7 are to be the most potent inhibitors, exhibiting mixed-type inhibition profile with IC50 values of 1.14 mu M, 5.29 mu M respectively against purified PPO enzyme. Electronic structure calculations at the B3LYP/PBE0 level of theories using def-2 SVP, def2-TZVP basis sets with various molecular descriptors characterized the electronic behavior of studied derivatives TD-Hid-1-10. Molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) and reduced density gradient analyses of RDG-NCI provided insights into charge distributions and weak intermolecular interactions. Docking study simulations predicted binding poses within crucial amino acid sequence in the 2y9x enzyme's active site, which is typically similar in sequence to the PPO form is not allowed. Ligands were analysed in terms of binding energies, inhibitor concentrations (mM) and various molecular interactions such as H-bonds, H-carbon, pi-carbon, pi-sigma, pi-sigma, pi-pi T-shaped, pi-pi stacked, pi-alkyl, Van der Waals and Cu interactions. The lowest binding energy (-7.83 kcal/mol) and the highest inhibitory effect (1.83 mM) were shown by the ligand Td-Hid-6, which forms H-bonds with Met280 and Asn260, exhibits pi-sigma interactions with His61 and pi-alkyl interactions with Val283. Other ligands also showed different interactions with various amino acids; for example, the Td-Hid-1 ligand formed H-bonds with His244 and showed pi-sigma interactions with His244 and Val283.
