General Information

Venue Hilton Hotel, Tel Aviv Independence Park, Hayarkon Street, Tel Aviv 63405 Tel: +972-3-5202222, Fax: +972-3-5272711

Parking For conference participants only, parking will be available in the hotel parking lot subject to a fee of NIS 25 per entrance. Vouchers will be given out at the conference registration/hospitality desk and payment will be made on departure.

Poster Sessions Poster Sessions will take place in Hall E as follows: Tuesday, February 6, 16:30 hrs - 17:30 hrs; Wednesday, February 7, 11:15 hrs - 12:15 hrs. Posters should be affixed according to the number mentioned in the program. All posters will remain on display for both sessions. Please do not forget to remove your poster at the end of the conference.

Technical Equipment (a) A Speakers’ Preview Room is available for speakers, and is situated next to the Session Halls of the Conference (follow the signs). There, you can upload your presentations onto a computer (from a CD or USB stick/"disk-on-key"). An IT technician will verify with you that they open and display correctly and then will transfer them to the computer in the room where you will be speaking by the network infrastructure. During the break before the session in which you will be speaking, please could you confirm, with the assistance of the AV technician in your assigned lecture hall, that all slides (and any video clips or other multimedia files) open and display correctly there. This "upload beforehand to host computer" solution should work for essentially all self-contained Powerpoint presentations, as well as for all PDF presentations. (b) Some of you will, however, wish to use your own laptops. If so, you will be required - during the break before the session in which you are speaking - to hook up your own respective laptops to the video switch provided in each room, and to put your presentations on standby at the first slide. (An AV technician will be on hand to assist you, should this be required.) When your speaker slot comes up, all that needs to be done is to put your presentation on screen is pressing a single button on the video switch, and to place your laptop computer on the lectern in front of you, with the assistance of the AV technician. Lunch and Dinner Lunch and dinner will be served upon presentation of the corresponding vouchers included in your personal envelope.

A Multi-Dimensional Approach to Molecular Recognition in Chemistry and Biology: Towards New Therapies Against Infectious Diseases

François N. Diederich1 1Department of Chemistry and Applied Biosciences, ETH Zürich, Hönggerberg, HCI, CH-8093 Zürich,

Switzerland

We pursue since the early 1990s a molecular recognition-based approach to medicinal chemistry. Starting from the observation of an unfamiliar intermolecular contact seen in the X-ray crystal structures of protein-ligand complexes obtained in our medicinal chemistry programs, which target malaria and other important diseases, we undertake data base mining in the Cambridge Crystallographic Database (CSD) and the Protein Data Bank (PDB) to explore the statistical relevance of the contact. If this contact is of a more general nature, we quantify it - depending on its energetic magnitude - in protein-ligand binding studies, molecular recognition studies with synthetic receptors or, if very weak, by studying intramolecular dynamic processes in designed model systems. Examples for this multi-dimensional approach are the elucidation of phosphate recognition in structural biology, the quantification of orthogonal multipolar interactions, discovered during a fluorine scan to map the fluorophilicity/fluorophobicity of the thrombin active site and the exploration of cation-π interactions in aromatic molecular boxes at enzyme active sites such as the S4 pocket of Factor Xa, another serine protease of the blood coagulation cascade. The application of the insight gained into biological molecular recognition phenomena to structure-based drug design will be illustrated by recent lead developments in our antimalarials program. Targets are IspE (4-diphosphocytidyl-2-C-methyl-D-erythritol kinase) and IspF (2-C-D-erythritol-2,4-cyclodiphosphate synthase), two enzymes from the non-mevalonate pathway to isoprenoid biosynthesis, exclusively used by plasmodium parasites, and the aspartic proteases plasmepsins I-IV used by the parasite to degrade hemoglobin.

Challenges in Organometallic Chemistry: From Bond Activation to Catalytic Design

David Milstein1 1Department of Organic Chemistry, The Weizmann Institute of Science, 76100 Rehovot, Israel

The insertion of transition metal complexes into strong chemical bonds can activate these bonds towards uncommon transformations and form the basis for the design of new catalytic reactions and new synthetic methodology. Studies on selective activation of strong bonds by specifically designed late transition metal complexes, and homogeneous catalysis involving these bonds, will be described. Emphasis will be placed on C-X (X= C, H, F, Cl) and O-H bonds. Among the ligands designed for these studies are pincer-type tridentate mono-anionic frameworks which can impart on metal centers both stability and unusual modes of reactivity. Facile de-aromatization processes have led to uncommon structures and have provided insight regarding the interactions of metals with aromatics. The role of pincer hemilability and reversible de-aromatization in catalysis will be illustrated.

The Resonance Phenomenon: From First Principles to Technology

Nimrod Moiseyev1 1Shulich Faculty of Chemistry, Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa 32000, Israel

Resonances appear in different fields of physics and chemistry, and in many cases it is very hard (and often impossible) to calculate their properties of interest by standard methods. In chemistry resonances appear as metastable (i.e., finite lifetime) autionization states of atoms and molecules and as metastable predissocaion states which are often associated with activated complexes in chemical reactions. The understanding of the resonance phenomena helps to control the dynamics of the system of interest. Complex scaling transformations make it possible to perform calculations in such cases. The main idea behind the complex scaling transformations will be explained in a visual way. By using the formalism we derived, which enables the use of the complex scaling method in quantum mechanical (QM) calculations which are similar in their nature to electronic structure calculations of bound states in the conventional QM, I will explain experimental results that can not be explained by conventional (Hermitian) QM, will show how theoretical studies guide new type of experiments, and will describe new types of optical and electrical devices that have been invented on the basis of insights gained by using this method in the studying of photo-induced dynamics in simple chemical reactions. For a review see: N. Moiseyev, "Quantum theory of resonances: calculating energies, widths and cross-sections by complex scaling", Physics Reports 302(5-6), 211-293 (1998).

Weak alignment offers new opportunities in NMR of biomolecules

Alex Grishaev1, Jordan Chill1, Jinfa Ying1, Justin Wu1, Ad Bax1 1Laboratory of Chemical Physics, NIDDK, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA

Spectral simplicity of solution NMR spectra results from the Brownian rotational diffusion of solutes, which rapidly averages the strong dipolar interactions between different spins to exactly zero. Much valuable structural information, contained in these dipolar interactions, is lost in this averaging process. It has long been known that alignment of solutes in a magnetically oriented liquid crystalline medium restores the dipolar interactions, albeit at the cost of dramatically increased spectral complexity, limiting this approach to only very simple systems. However, by decreasing the degree of solute alignment, it is possible to retain the valuable structural information contained in the dipolar couplings, without considerably increasing spectral complexity.

With the rapidly increasing number of previously solved macromolecular structures, the alignment approach can take advantage of this structural database by revealing which fragments are compatible with experimental dipolar couplings. This approach can provide considerable shortcuts in macromolecular structural studies, while providing a very sensitive measure to identify subtle structural changes. Examples will be shown for both proteins and nucleic acids.

Bioelectrochemistry in the Management of Diabetes: The Science and Technology of TheraSense

Adam Heller1 1Department of Chemical Engineering, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX 78712, USA

About 6 billion glucose assays are performed each year by self-monitoring diabetic people. These assays were painful until TheraSense, the venture founded by my son Ephraim and me, made them painless. We removed the pain by introducing FreeStyle™, an accurate, 300 nL volume, thin-layer micro-coulometer. The small blood volume made the assay painless and rapid. The assay is also accurate, because the outcome does not vary with kinetic parameters, like temperature or viscosity. The strip of FreeStyle™ comprises the smallest volume mass-manufactured fluidic device.

Our large scale clinical trials of an amperometric, continuous glucose monitor were also successful. We designed the monitor to remove the worry of diabetes: in managing their blood glucose concentration, diabetic people had to perpetually balance the risk of rare coma or even death causing hypoglycemia, against the risk of persistent hyperglycemia, a cause of blindness, amputations, kidney failure and vascular disease. The core component of the continuous glucose monitor is a subcutaneously implanted, glucose-specific, amperometric sensor, painlessly replaced by the user every 5-days. Through the catalytic electrooxidation of glucose, the sensor transduces its concentration-dependent flux to the electrode to an electrical current. Its unique electrocatalyst is a crosslinked electrostatic adduct of a polycationic redox-conducting polymer and polyanionic glucose oxidase. The polymer swells in water to form an electron conducting redox hydrogel, electrically connecting the enzyme’s redox centers to the electrode, irrespective of its orientation. Electrons diffuse in the hydrogel by electron-exchanging collision of redox-segments of the polymer.

TheraSense Inc. was acquired in 2004 by Abbott Laboratories for $ 1.26 billion and is now part of Abbott Diabetes Care. Its sales were of $ 500 million in 2005. The company employs about 1,500 people and is located near the site where Ephraim and I founded it in 1996.
