STRUCTURE OF CDK2-CYCLIN A WITH PHA-630529
Structural highlights
FunctionCDK2_HUMAN Serine/threonine-protein kinase involved in the control of the cell cycle; essential for meiosis, but dispensable for mitosis. Phosphorylates CTNNB1, USP37, p53/TP53, NPM1, CDK7, RB1, BRCA2, MYC, NPAT, EZH2. Interacts with cyclins A, B1, B3, D, or E. Triggers duplication of centrosomes and DNA. Acts at the G1-S transition to promote the E2F transcriptional program and the initiation of DNA synthesis, and modulates G2 progression; controls the timing of entry into mitosis/meiosis by controlling the subsequent activation of cyclin B/CDK1 by phosphorylation, and coordinates the activation of cyclin B/CDK1 at the centrosome and in the nucleus. Crucial role in orchestrating a fine balance between cellular proliferation, cell death, and DNA repair in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). Activity of CDK2 is maximal during S phase and G2; activated by interaction with cyclin E during the early stages of DNA synthesis to permit G1-S transition, and subsequently activated by cyclin A2 (cyclin A1 in germ cells) during the late stages of DNA replication to drive the transition from S phase to mitosis, the G2 phase. EZH2 phosphorylation promotes H3K27me3 maintenance and epigenetic gene silencing. Phosphorylates CABLES1 (By similarity). Cyclin E/CDK2 prevents oxidative stress-mediated Ras-induced senescence by phosphorylating MYC. Involved in G1-S phase DNA damage checkpoint that prevents cells with damaged DNA from initiating mitosis; regulates homologous recombination-dependent repair by phosphorylating BRCA2, this phosphorylation is low in S phase when recombination is active, but increases as cells progress towards mitosis. In response to DNA damage, double-strand break repair by homologous recombination a reduction of CDK2-mediated BRCA2 phosphorylation. Phosphorylation of RB1 disturbs its interaction with E2F1. NPM1 phosphorylation by cyclin E/CDK2 promotes its dissociates from unduplicated centrosomes, thus initiating centrosome duplication. Cyclin E/CDK2-mediated phosphorylation of NPAT at G1-S transition and until prophase stimulates the NPAT-mediated activation of histone gene transcription during S phase. Required for vitamin D-mediated growth inhibition by being itself inactivated. Involved in the nitric oxide- (NO) mediated signaling in a nitrosylation/activation-dependent manner. USP37 is activated by phosphorylation and thus triggers G1-S transition. CTNNB1 phosphorylation regulates insulin internalization.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedInhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) such as CDK2/cyclin A-E are currently undergoing clinical trials to verify their potential as new anticancer agents. In a previous article we described the lead discovery process of a 3-aminopyrazole class of CDK2/cyclin A-E inhibitors. The endpoint of this process was PNU-292137, a compound endowed with in vivo antitumor activity in a mouse tumor xenograft model. We optimized this lead compound to improve some physicochemical properties, notably solubility and plasma protein binding. This lead optimization process brought us to the discovery of (2S)-N-(5-cyclopropyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-2-[4-(2-oxo-1-pyrrolidinyl)phenyl]p ropanamide (PHA-533533, 13), a compound with a balanced activity vs druglike profile. Compound 13 inhibited CDK2/cyclin A with a K(i) of 31 nM, counteracting tumor cell proliferation of different cell lines with an IC(50) in the submicromolar range. Solubility was improved more than 10 times over the starting lead, while plasma protein binding was decreased from 99% to 74%. With exploitation of this globally enhanced in vitro profile, 13 was more active than PNU-292137 in vivo in the A2780 xenograft model showing a tumor growth inhibition of 70%. Proof of mechanism of action was obtained in vivo by immunohistochemical analysis of tumor slices of 13-treated vs untreated animals. 3-Aminopyrazole inhibitors of CDK2/cyclin A as antitumor agents. 2.
