  1. Abstract:

    The pathogenicity of Yersinia pestis relies on several effector proteins including YopH, a protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP). We previously screened a library of analogues based on the ubiquitous PTP substrate para-nitrophenylphosphate (pNPP) and found that incorporation of a 3-phenyl substituent to give 6-nitro-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-yldihydrogen phosphate (1) enhanced affinity. Herein we report the conversion of 1 from a substrate into an inhibitor by replacing the hydrolysable phosphoryl group with a 3-isoxazolecarboxylic acid moiety and by introduction of an aminooxy group and subsequent diversification using oxime-based click chemistry. This approach led to the identification of non-promiscuous bidentate YopH inhibitors with affinity in the low micromolar range.
