Article Abstract

We designed and synthesized nonsecosteroidal vitamin D receptor (VDR) ligands that formed H-bonds with six amino acid residues (Tyr143, Ser233, Arg270, Ser274, His301 and His393) of the VDR ligand-binding domain. The ligand YR335 exhibited potent transcriptional activity, which was comparable to those of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) and YR301. The crystal structure of the complex formed between YR335 and the VDR ligand-binding domain was solved, which revealed that YR335 formed H-bonds with the six amino acid residues mentioned above.
