Successfully forming ligand-protein complexes with specific compounds can be a significant challenge in supporting structure-based drug design for a given protein target. In this respect, an on-column ligand- and detergent-exchange method was developed to obtain ligand-protein complexes of an adamantane series of compounds with 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1) after a variety of other complexation methods had failed. This report describes the on-column exchange method and an unexpected byproduct of the method in which artificial trimers were observed in the structures.
对于给定的蛋白质靶点,成功地与特定化合物形成配体 - 蛋白质复合物可能是基于结构的药物设计面临的一项重大挑战。在这方面,在多种其他络合方法均失败后,开发了一种柱上配体和去污剂交换方法,以获得金刚烷系列化合物与11β - 羟基类固醇脱氢酶1型(11β - HSD1)的配体 - 蛋白质复合物。本报告描述了柱上交换方法以及该方法中一个意外的副产物,即在结构中观察到了人工三聚体。
