title: IV. Synthesis and assay of analogs of adenosine 3',5'-diphosphate as inhibitors of bovine adrenal estrogen sulfotranferase.
abstract: Analogs of adenosine 3',5'-diphosphate are described which aid in the characterization of the inhibition of estrone sulfurylation by 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate as mediated by bovine adrenal estrogen sulfotransferase (3'-5'-phosphosulfate:estrone 3-sulphotransferase, EC 2.8.2.4). The facile conversion of ribonucleosides to 2',3'-cyclic phosphate 5'-phosphate in neat pyrophosphoryl chloride is utilized to provide a reliable route to the requisite intermediates for enzymatic regiospecific conversion to ribonucleoside 3',5'- and 2',5'-diphosphates. The importance of the 3'-phosphate ester to inhibition of estrone sulfurylation is confirmed by Ki measurements. Replacement of the 6-amino group by hydrogen or oxygen leads to considerable loss in affinity for the enzyme as does also dimethylation of the exocylic amino group. Alterations in the pyrimidine ring are not well tolerated by the sulfotransferase but modifications in the imidazole ring as in tubercidin (7 -deazaadenosine) and 8-bromoadenosine 3',5'-diphosphate lead to an enhanced affinity. The latter findings are discussed in terms of an hypothesis of stacking of the aromatic ring of the estrogen substrate and the purine moiety and its analogs.
