A series of O(6)-allyl- and O(6)-(2-oxoalkyl)guanines were synthesized and evaluated, in comparison with the corresponding O(6)-alkylguanines, as potential inhibitors of the DNA-repair protein O(6)-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT). Simple O(6)-alkyl- and O(6)-cycloalkylguanines were weak AGT inactivators compared with O(6)-allylguanine (IC(50) = 8.5 +/- 0.6 microM) with IC(50) values ranging from 100 to 1000 microM. The introduction of substituents at C-2 of the allyl group of O(6)-allylguanine reduced activity compared with the parent compound, while analogous compounds in the O(6)-(2-oxoalkyl)guanine series exhibited very poor activity (150-1000 microM). O(6)-Cycloalkenylguanines proved to be excellent AGT inactivators, with 1-cyclobutenylmethylguanine (IC(50) = 0.55 +/- 0.02 microM) and 1-cyclopentenylmethylguanine (IC(50) = 0.39 +/- 0.04 microM) exhibiting potency approaching that of the benchmark AGT inhibitor O(6)-benzylguanine (IC(50) = 0.18 +/- 0.02 microM). 1-Cyclopentenylmethylguanine also inactivated AGT in intact HT29 human colorectal carcinoma cells (IC(50) = 0.20 +/- 0.07 microM) and potentiated the cytotoxicity of the monomethylating antitumor agent Temozolomide by approximately 3- and 10-fold, respectively, in the HT29 and Colo205 tumor cell lines. The observation that four mutant AGT enzymes resistant to O(6)-benzylguanine also proved strongly cross-resistant to 1-cyclopentenylmethylguanine indicates that the O(6)-substituent of each compound makes similar binding interactions within the active site of AGT.
