TLDR
The synthesis of chemical tools for three Hsp90 inhibitor classes will be useful for probing tumor-by-tumor the HSp90 complexes isolated by specific inhibitors, and will lead to better understanding of tumor specific molecular markers to aid in their clinical development.

Hsp90: Structure and Function.

TL;DR: The focus of this review is the structural and mechanistic studies which have been performed in order to understand how this important chaperone acts on a wide variety of different proteins (its client proteins) and cellular processes.

Paralog-selective Hsp90 inhibitors define tumor-specific regulation of HER2

TL;DR: It is shown that Grp94 selectivity is due to the insertion of these compounds into a new allosteric pocket, and new mechanistic evidence explaining why selective Grp 94 inhibition is particularly efficacious in certain breast cancers is provided.

Small molecule modulators of protein-protein interactions: selected case studies.

TL;DR: Protein−Protein Interactions Centered on the Inhibitors of Apoptosis Proteins (IAPs) and Synthetic Small Molecules and their Derivatives, and the Unexpected Discovery of First Bivalent SMAC Mimetic AF.

Synthesis and evaluation of new Hsp90 inhibitors based on a 1,4,5-trisubstituted 1,2,3-triazole scaffold

TL;DR: In vitro metabolic stability and in vivo preliminary studies on selected compounds have shown promising results comparable to the potent Hsp90 inhibitor NVP-AUY922, and one of them, (compound 18, SST0287CL1) was selected for further investigation as the most promising drug candidate.

Development and Testing of the OPLS All-Atom Force Field on Conformational Energetics and Properties of Organic Liquids

TL;DR: In this article, the parametrization and testing of the OPLS all-atom force field for organic molecules and peptides are described, and the parameters for both torsional and non-bonded energy properties have been derived, while the bond stretching and angle bending parameters have been adopted mostly from the AMBER force field.

Glide: a new approach for rapid, accurate docking and scoring. 1. Method and assessment of docking accuracy.

TL;DR: Glide approximates a complete systematic search of the conformational, orientational, and positional space of the docked ligand to find the best docked pose using a model energy function that combines empirical and force-field-based terms.

Glide: a new approach for rapid, accurate docking and scoring. 2. Enrichment factors in database screening.

TL;DR: Comparisons to results for the thymidine kinase and estrogen receptors published by Rognan and co-workers show that Glide 2.5 performs better than GOLD 1.1, FlexX 1.8, or DOCK 4.01.

HSP90 and the chaperoning of cancer.

TL;DR: Pharmacologically 'bribing' the essential guard duty of the chaperone HSP90 (heat-shock protein of 90 kDa) seems to offer a unique anticancer strategy of considerable promise.

Empirical scoring functions: I. The development of a fast empirical scoring function to estimate the binding affinity of ligands in receptor complexes

TL;DR: A simple empirical scoring function designed to estimate the free energy of binding for aprotein–ligand complex when the 3D structure of the complex is known or can be approximated and it is compared to approaches by other workers.
