Abstract：
:Polyglutamyl derivatives of methotrexate (MTX) and 10-deazaaminopterin (10-DAM) containing a total of one through six glutamate residues (Glu residues) were tested as inhibitors of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) derived from sheep, chicken, and beef liver. The ability of dihydropteroylpentaglutamate to antagonize the inhibitory activity of these analogues was also studied. The most striking effects were seen with sheep liver DHFR, where polyglutamylation of MTX causes stepwise decreases in the concentration required for 50% inhibition (IC50) with each additional Glu residue until MTX with a total of six Glu residues has an IC50 value 1/3 that of MTX. With 10-DAM the pattern is more complex. The IC50 values increase with addition of Glu residues until a maximum is reached with 10-DAM having a total of three Glu residues which has a value twice that of 10-DAM. 10-DAM with a total of four Glu residues and 10-DAM with a total of five Glu residues have progressively lower IC50 values, the latter being equipotent with 10-DAM. With dihydropteroylpentaglutamate as substrate instead of dihydrofolate, the IC50 values are increased 2- to 5-fold for both MTX and 10-DAM derivatives. The results obtained with chicken liver and beef liver DHFR are generally similar to those described for the sheep liver enzyme, but the effects of polyglutamylation are less pronounced. The addition of 0.2 M KCl to the assay system reduces the differences in inhibitory potency of the polyglutamyl derivatives with all three enzymes tested. We conclude that polyglutamylation can alter the interaction of folate analogues and dihydrofolate with DHFR.
