New pseudo-di- and pseudo-trisaccharide derivatives of the aminoglycoside drug
G418
were designed, synthesized and their ability to readthrough nonsense mutations was examined in both in vitro and ex vivo systems, along with the toxicity tests. Two novel lead structures, NB74 and NB84, exhibiting significantly reduced cell toxicity and superior readthrough efficiency than those of gentamicin, were discovered. The superiority of new leads was demonstrated in six different nonsense DNA-constructs underling the genetic diseases cystic fibrosis, Duchenne muscular dystrophy,
Usher syndrome
and Hurler syndrome.
