Abstract: Cyanobacterial pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complex E1 (PDHc E1) is a potential target enzyme for finding inhibitors to control harmful cyanobacterial blooms. In this study, a series of novel triazole thiamin diphosphate (ThDP) analogs were designed and synthesized by modifying the substituent group of triazole ring and optimizing triazole-benzene linker as potential cyanobacterial PDHc E1 (Cy-PDHc E1) inhibitors. Their inhibitory activities against Cy-PDHc E1 in vitro and algicide activities in vivo were further examined. Most of these compounds exhibited prominent inhibitory activities against Cy-PDHc E1 (IC50 1.48-4.48 μM) and good algicide activities against Synechocystis PCC6803 (EC50 0.84-2.44 µM) and Microcystis aeruginosa FACHB905 (EC50 0.74-1.77 µM). Especially, compound 8d showed not only the highest inhibitory activity against Cy-PDHc E1 (IC50 1.48 μM), but also the most powerful inhibitory selectivity between Cy-PDHc E1 (inhibitory rate 98.90%) and porcine PDHc E1 (inhibitory rate only 9.54%). Furthermore, the potential interaction between compound 8d and Cy-PDHc E1 was analyzed by a molecular docking method and site-directed mutagenesis and enzymatic analysis and fluorescence spectral analysis. These results indicated that compound 8d could be used as a hit compound for further optimization and might have potential to be developed as a new algicide.
