Abstract:
:Ergosterol, the predominant sterol of fungi, is postulated to have many cellular functions which include a bulk membrane role and a regulatory role. Studies with sterol auxotrophs show that, even in the presence of sterols which can fulfill the bulk membrane requirements, a small concentration of ergosterol is absolutely necessary for growth. The delta 5-double bond appears to be required for the regulatory role of ergosterol; therefore, development of inhibitors of the enzyme that introduce this double bond, delta 7-sterol 5-desaturase (5-desaturase), may lead to effective antifungal agents. Within is the first reported synthesis of inhibitors of fungal 5-desaturase and the development of an in vitro tritium efficacy radioassay. The inhibitors were of the general structure 7,22(E)-ergostadien-3 beta-ol with alpha-face heteroatom substituents in the vicinity of C-5. They exhibited IC50 values of 47-149 microM.
