Crystal Structure of Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 2 with inhibitor

Overview

CDK2 inhibitors containing the related bicyclic heterocycles, pyrazolopyrimidines and imidazopyrazines were discovered through, high-throughput screening. Crystal structures of inhibitors with these, bicyclic cores and two more related ones show that all but one have a, common binding mode featuring two hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) to the backbone, of the kinase hinge region. Even though ab initio computations indicated, that the imidazopyrazine core would bind more tightly to the hinge, pyrazolopyrimidines gain an advantage in potency through participation of, N4 in an H-bond network involving two catalytic residues and bridging, water molecules. Further insight into inhibitor/CDK2 interactions was, gained from analysis of additional crystal structures. Significant gains, in potency were obtained by optimizing the fit of hydrophobic substituents, to the gatekeeper region of the ATP binding site. The most potent, inhibitors have good selectivity.
