Discovery of tyrosine kinase inhibitors by docking into an inactive kinase conformation generated by molecular dynamics.
Several small molecules that bind to the inactive DFG-out conformation of tyrosine kinases (called type II inhibitors) have shown a good selectivity profile over other kinase targets. To obtain a set of DFG-out structures, we performed an explicit solvent molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of the complex of the catalytic domain of a tyrosine kinase receptor, ephrin type-A receptor 3 (EphA3), an...
متن کاملVemurafenib enhances MHC induction in BRAFV600E homozygous melanoma cells
To optimally integrate targeted kinase inhibitors and immunotherapies in the treatment of melanoma, it will be critical to understand how BRAFV600E mutational status and BRAFV600E inhibition influence the expression of genes that govern antitumor immune responses. Because major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules are critical for interactions between tumor cells and lymphocytes, we inves...
متن کاملPreclinical Evaluation of Vemurafenib as Therapy for BRAFV600E Mutated Sarcomas.
The BRAFV600E mutation, which in melanoma is targetable with vemurafenib, is also found in sarcomas and we here evaluate the therapeutic potential in sarcoma cell lines. METHODS Four sarcoma cell lines harboring the BRAFV600E mutation, representing liposarcomas (SA-4 and SW872), Ewing sarcoma (A673) and atypical synovial sarcoma (SW982), were treated with vemurafenib and the effects on cell g...
متن کاملInactive conformation of an insulin despite its wild-type sequence.
The peptide group between residues B24 and B25 of insulin was replaced by an ester bond. This modification only in the backbone was meant to eliminate a structurally important H-bond between the amide proton of B25 and the carbonyl oxygen of A19, and consequently to enhance detachment of the C-terminal B-chain from the body of the molecule, exposing the underlying A-chain. According to a model ...
متن کاملEnzyme inhibition by allosteric capture of an inactive conformation.
All members of the human herpesvirus protease (HHV Pr) family are active as weakly associating dimers but inactive as monomers. A small-molecule allosteric inhibitor of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus protease (KSHV Pr) traps the enzyme in an inactive monomeric state where the C-terminal helices are unfolded and the hydrophobic dimer interface is exposed. NMR titration studies demonstra...
