Dihydrofolate Reductase Activity
Folate metabolism is
essential in rapidly
growing systems, i.e.
– Bacteria
– Parasites
– Tumors

Project Description
Synthesize triazines similar to cycloguanil
– Use various aldehydes in the synthesis to modify
substituents at number 2 carbon
– Known to provide stearic hinderance
Use Lactobacillus as model organism
– Fastidous: growth dependent on folic acid
– Used in in bioassay for folic concentration in food
and vitamins
– Previoulsy used to study this type of drug

Derivatives tested: R= Ethyl, Butyl, Propyl, Hexyl, or Phenyl
Inhibition Assay
Prepared decade dilutions of
compounds in Standard folic
acid assay medium
Used DMSO as carrier to
dissolve
Measured OD660 after 18-24
hours
Repeated in triplicate when
the linear range was
deduced
Goal - I50
Determine concentration that
gives 50% Inhibition of growth

Summary and Discussion
1-(Chlorophenyl)-1,2-dihydro-2-hexyl-striazine was shown to have a lower I50 (0.024
mM) than cycloguanil (0.048 mM), but not the
base compound (0.013 mM)
This suggests investigation into other
derivatives is warranted
Future studies include trying the hexyl
derivative with purified DHFR and against
methotrexate strains of Lactobacillus
