John Scott Award Goes to Recent Nobelist
Philadelphia chemist returns home for one more honor

K. Barry Sharpless To say that K. Barry Sharpless has had an eventful year might be as understated as saying that he likes chemistry. In addition to receiving the Nobel Prize for chemistry on Dec. 10, Sharpless, W.M. Keck Professor of chemistry at The Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, Calif., returned to his hometown of Philadelphia earlier in April to receive the Benjamin Franklin Medal, and then again this autumn to receive the John Scott Award. The latter award was bestowed by the Philadelphia Board of City Trusts Nov. 16 at the College of Physicians of Philadelphia. "Being a local boy," exclaims Sharpless, "it feels like Philadelphia has really come through for me this year." Sharpless pegs the beginnings of his inquisitive nature that spirited his prize-winning research on the long summer days spent at the New Jersey shore fishing or seining for crabs. Be it snapping turtle, eel, or even coelacanth, Sharpless always hoped for a new and outlandish catch, and today he continues to look for new reactivity and conduct chemistry the way he used to fish. His research on chirally-catalyzed oxidation reactions is no fish story, however.

NIGMS Grantee K. Barry Sharpless Wins Nobel Prize for Advances in Mirror-Image Chemistry
by Alison Davis
October 10, 2001
"Dr. Sharpless' creativity has helped the entire field of chemistry produce extremely useful molecules, including many different therapeutics, that continue to improve the health and enhance the lives of all Americans," said Dr. Ruth L. Kirschstein, acting director of NIH. "This year's Nobel Prizes in Chemistry and Physiology or Medicine both beautifully underscore the value of basic biological research in yielding vital medical advances." The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in Stockholm announced the chemistry prize winners this morning. Dr. Sharpless, W.M. Keck Professor of Chemistry at The Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, California, received half of this year's chemistry award for his work on "chirally catalyzed oxidation reactions." Sharing the other half of the prize for their work on "chirally catalyzed hydrogenation reactions," are Dr. William S. Knowles of St. Louis, Missouri (formerly of the Monsanto Company) and Dr. Ryoji Noyori of Nagoya University, Chikusa, Nagoya, Japan. Nearly all small moleculeseither natural or syntheticcome in two, "mirror-image" forms, much like a pair of gloves. When chemical reactions occur in living systems, only the "correct" form is made. In contrast, laboratory reactions nearly always produce a potful of both left and right "hands" of a molecule. The active part of most medicines consists of a single hand of a molecule. A mixture that includes the "wrong" hand of a molecule can be ineffective or even harmful to the body.

Tricking diseases into synthesizing their own worst enemies
A revolutionary strategy for drug discovery at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) succeeds on an enzyme
In a first attempt to test a new general strategy for drug discovery, chemists at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) and TSRI's Skaggs Institute for Chemical Biology created the most potent blocking agent known against an enzyme implicated in Alzheimer's disease. In the current issue of the journal Angewandte Chemie, 2001 Nobel laureate K. Barry Sharpless, W.M. Keck Professor of Chemistry at TSRI, and colleagues at TSRI and the University of California at San Diego, describe how click chemistry, a modular protocol for organic synthesis that Sharpless developed, was used to make a drug-like molecule that powerfully blocks the neurotransmitter destruction caused by the brain enzyme, acetylcholinesterase. Unlike existing methods, this new drug-discovery strategy—click chemistry—mobilizes the target itself, acetylcholinesterase in this case, to play a decisive role and select the final synthetic step. The acetylcholinesterase enzyme actually catalyzed the click reaction that created that enzyme's own inhibitor, and, remarkably, the result is by far the most potent inhibitor ever discovered for this important, widely studied brain enzyme. "Think of this as a Trojan Horse approach for battling disease, but this horse goes the Greeks one better," says Sharpless. "We create the pieces that can be clicked together to make the horse, then we leave them outside the gates of, for example, a bacterium. If the pieces look right, it goes to work, constructing its own worst enemy, and doing so within its own defensive walls."
