Proteasome assembling chaperone (PAC) 3 acts as a homodimer and plays an important role in proteasome formation. We screened JBIR-22 (1) as an inhibitor for protein-protein interaction (PPI) of PAC3 homodimer from our natural product library using a protein fragment complementation assay (PCA) with monomeric Kusabira-Green fluorescent protein (mKG) in vitro and found that 1 exhibited potent inhibitory activity against PAC3 homodimerization. Compound 1 showed long-term cytotoxicity against the human cervical carcinoma cell line, HeLa. This is the first report of a PPI inhibitor for proteasome assembly factors.

Recent reports have highlighted the biological activity associated with a subfamily of the tetramic acid class of natural products. Despite the fact that members of this subfamily act as protein-protein interaction inhibitors that are of relevance to proteasome assembly, no synthetic work has been reported. This may be due to the fact that this subfamily contains an unnatural 4,4-disubstitued glutamic acid, the synthesis of which provides a key challenge.
