Two potentially complementary approaches to improve the anti-cancer strategy gene-directed enzyme prodrug therapy (GDEPT) are discovery of more efficient prodrug-activating enzymes, and development of more effective prodrugs. Here we demonstrate the utility of a flexible screening system based on the

NTR (nitroreductase NfsB from Escherichia coli) is a flavoprotein with broad substrate specificity, reducing nitroaromatics and quinones using either NADPH or NADH. One of its substrates is the prodrug CB1954 (5-[aziridin-1-yl]-2,4-dinitrobenzamide), which is converted into a cytotoxic agent; so NTR/CB1954

The enzyme nitroreductase, NfsB, from Escherichia coli has entered clinical trials for cancer gene therapy with the prodrug CB1954 [5-(aziridin-1-yl)-2,4-dinitrobenzamide]. However, CB1954 is a poor substrate for the enzyme. Previously we made several NfsB mutants that show better activity with
