Crystal structure of MALT1 in complex with an allosteric inhibitor
Structural highlights
DiseaseMALT1_HUMAN Note=A chromosomal aberration involving MALT1 is recurrent in low-grade mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma). Translocation t(11;18)(q21;q21) with BIRC2. This translocation is found in approximately 50% of cytogenetically abnormal low-grade MALT lymphoma. FunctionMALT1_HUMAN Enhances BCL10-induced activation of NF-kappa-B. Involved in nuclear export of BCL10. Binds to TRAF6, inducing TRAF6 oligomerization and activation of its ligase activity. Has ubiquitin ligase activity. MALT1-dependent BCL10 cleavage plays an important role in T-cell antigen receptor-induced integrin adhesion.[1] [2] [3] Publication Abstract from PubMedMALT1 is a key component of the CARD11-BCL10-MALT1 (CBM) complex downstream from BTK on the B-cell receptor signaling pathway. It is a key mediator of NF-kappaB signaling and considered a potential therapeutic target for several subtypes of non-Hodgkin's B-cell lymphomas. By applying advanced physics-based modeling techniques, including combining free energy calculations with machine learning methods and a chemistry-aware compound enumeration workflow, extensive sets of de novo design ideas were explored to quickly identify a novel hit series. Multiparameter optimization allowed efficient prioritization of molecules with good potency and drug-like properties during lead optimization, which led to the discovery of a highly potent MALT1 inhibitor, SGR-1505, with a well-balanced property profile. It demonstrated strong antitumor activity alone and in combination with BTK inhibitor in multiple in vivo B-cell lymphoma xenograft models and progressed to a phase 1 clinical trial in patients with mature B-cell neoplasms.
