CDK6 (monomeric) in complex with inhibitor
Structural highlights
Function[CDK6_HUMAN] Serine/threonine-protein kinase involved in the control of the cell cycle and differentiation; promotes G1/S transition. Phosphorylates pRB/RB1 and NPM1. Interacts with D-type G1 cyclins during interphase at G1 to form a pRB/RB1 kinase and controls the entrance into the cell cycle. Involved in initiation and maintenance of cell cycle exit during cell differentiation; prevents cell proliferation and regulates negatively cell differentiation, but is required for the proliferation of specific cell types (e.g. erythroid and hematopoietic cells). Essential for cell proliferation within the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus and the subventricular zone of the lateral ventricles. Required during thymocyte development. Promotes the production of newborn neurons, probably by modulating G1 length. Promotes, at least in astrocytes, changes in patterns of gene expression, changes in the actin cytoskeleton including loss of stress fibers, and enhanced motility during cell differentiation. Prevents myeloid differentiation by interfering with RUNX1 and reducing its transcription transactivation activity, but promotes proliferation of normal myeloid progenitors. Delays senescence. Promotes the proliferation of beta-cells in pancreatic islets of Langerhans.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] Publication Abstract from PubMedIdentification and structure-guided optimization of a series of 4-(pyrazol-4-yl)-pyrimidines as selective CDK4/6 inhibitors is reported herein. Several potency and selectivity determinants were established based on the X-ray crystallographic analysis of representative compounds bound to monomeric CDK6. Significant selectivity for CDK4/6 over CDK1 and CDK2 was demonstrated with several compounds in both enzymatic and cellular assays. 4-(Pyrazol-4-yl)-pyrimidines as selective inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6.,Cho YS, Borland M, Brain C, Chen CH, Cheng H, Chopra R, Chung K, Groarke J, He G, Hou Y, Kim S, Kovats S, Lu Y, O'Reilly M, Shen J, Smith T, Trakshel G, Vogtle M, Xu M, Xu M, Sung MJ J Med Chem. 2010 Nov 25;53(22):7938-57.
