Virtual screening against a pCDK2/cyclin A crystal structure led to the identification of a potent and novel CDK2 inhibitor, which exhibited an unusual mode of interaction with the kinase binding motif. With the aid of X-ray crystallography and modelling, a medicinal chemistry strategy was implemented to probe the interactions seen in the crystal structure and to establish SAR. A fragment-based approach was also considered but a different, more conventional, binding mode was observed. Compound selectivity against GSK-3beta was improved using a rational design strategy, with crystallographic verification of the CDK2 binding mode.
针对pCDK2/细胞周期蛋白A晶体结构进行虚拟筛选,从而鉴定出一种强效且新颖的CDK2抑制剂,该抑制剂与激酶结合基序呈现出不同寻常的相互作用模式。借助X射线晶体学和建模技术,实施了一种药物化学策略,以探究晶体结构中观察到的相互作用并建立构效关系。还考虑了基于片段的方法,但观察到一种不同的、更传统的结合模式。使用合理设计策略提高了化合物对GSK-3β的选择性,并通过晶体学验证了CDK2的结合模式。
