Description

1,3-Diphenylurea is a cytokinin first identified in coconut milk. It is a hormone that promotes cell division in plant roots and shoots. 1,3-Diphenylurea is a nanomolar inhibitor of epoxide hydrolase B from Mycobacterium tuberculosis and its derivatives were developed for the treatment of tuberculosis.

IC50 values were determined using fluorescent substrate cyano(6-methoxy-naphthalen-2-yl) methyl trans-[(3-phenyloxiran-2-yl)methyl] carbonate (compound 6). Mycobacterium tuberculosis epoxide hydrolase B ([E] ~30 nM; 1.5 g/ml) was incubated with inhibitor ([I]=5–100,000 nM) for 5 min in BisTris–HCl buffer (25 mM, pH 7.0, containing 0.1 mg/ml of bovine serum albumin) at 30 °C prior to substrate introduction ([S]=5 μM). Enzyme activity was measured by monitoring the appearance of fluorescent of 6-methoxy-naphthaldehyde (λex 330 nm and λem 465 nm).
