X-ray structure of mitotic kinesin-5 (KSP, KIF11, Eg5)in complex with the hexahydro-2H-pyrano[3,2-c]quinoline EMD 534085
Structural highlights
Disease[KIF11_HUMAN] Defects in KIF11 are the cause of microcephaly with or without chorioretinopathy, lymphedema, or mental retardation (MCLMR) [MIM:152950]. An autosomal dominant disorder that involves an overlapping but variable spectrum of central nervous system and ocular developmental anomalies. Microcephaly ranges from mild to severe and is often associated with mild to moderate developmental delay and a characteristic facial phenotype with upslanting palpebral fissures, broad nose with rounded tip, long philtrum with thin upper lip, prominent chin, and prominent ears. Chorioretinopathy is the most common eye abnormality, but retinal folds, microphthalmia, and myopic and hypermetropic astigmatism have also been reported, and some individuals have no overt ocular phenotype. Congenital lymphedema, when present, is typically confined to the dorsa of the feet, and lymphoscintigraphy reveals the absence of radioactive isotope uptake from the webspaces between the toes.[1] Function[KIF11_HUMAN] Motor protein required for establishing a bipolar spindle. Blocking of KIF11 prevents centrosome migration and arrest cells in mitosis with monoastral microtubule arrays.[2] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedHere we describe the discovery and optimization of hexahydro-2H-pyrano[3,2-c]quinolines (HHPQs) as potent and selective inhibitors of the mitotic kinesin-5 originally found during a high-throughput screening (HTS) campaign sampling our in-house compound collection. The compounds optimized subsequently and characterized herein were potently inhibiting the ATPase activity of Kinesin-5 and also exhibited consistent cellular activity, in that cells arrested in mitosis and apoptosis induction could be observed. X-ray crystallographic data demonstrated that these inhibitors bind in an allosteric pocket of Kinesin-5 distant from the nucleotide and microtubule binding sites. The selected clinical candidate EMD 534085 caused strong growth inhibition in human tumor xenograft models using Colo 205 colon carcinoma cells at doses below 30mg/kg administered twice weekly without showing severe toxicity as determined by loss of body weight.
