ABSTRACT

Atypical steroid-like analogue of abiraterone, an inhibitor of androgen biosynthesis, was synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. The in vitro study of the compound by differential spectrophotometric titration revealed its ability to bind to truncated CYP17A1 (∆2-19 variant) in a type II fashion through nitrogen coordination with lower affinity than that of abiraterone, but still in nanomolar concentration range (KD ≈ 187 nm). The significant spectral response (∆Amax) value suggests that the new compound effectively targets the conformational ensemble of CYP17A1 accessible for ligand binding.
