Anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins are vital for cancer cells to escape apoptosis, which make them attractive targets for cancer therapy. Recently, a lead compound1was found to modestly inhibit the binding of BH3 peptide to Bcl-2 protein with aKivalue of 5.2 µM. Based on this, a series of substituted tyrosine derivatives were developed and tested for their binding affinities to Bcl-2 protein. Results indicated that these compounds exhibited potent binding affinities to Bcl-2 and Mcl-1 protein but not to Bcl-XLprotein. Promisingly, compound6iinhibited the binding of BH3 peptide to Bcl-2 and Mcl-1 protein with aKivalue of 450 and 190 nM respectively, and showed obvious anti-proliferative activities against tested cancer cells.
