Crystal structure of an Aurora-A mutant that mimics Aurora-B bound to MLN8054: insights into selectivity and drug design

TL;DR: It is proposed that targeting this pocket within the active site from polar to a hydrophobic pocket, similar to what is observed in the structure of Aurora-A bound to a compound that induces DFG-out, may be a productive route in the design of selective kinase inhibitors and described the structural basis for the rational design of these compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kinetic and crystallographic studies on 2-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-5-methyl-1, 3, 4-oxadiazole, -benzothiazole, and -benzimidazole, inhibitors of muscle glycogen phosphorylase b. Evidence for a new binding site.

TL;DR: The complex structures of GPb in complex with the three analogs revealed that the inhibitors can be accommodated in the catalytic site of T‐state GPb with very little change of the tertiary structure, and provide a rationalization for understanding variations in potency of the inhibitors.
