摘要
A high throughput screening campaign was designed to identify allosteric inhibitors of Chk1 kinase by testing compounds at high concentration. Activity was then observed at K-m for ATP and at near-physiological concentrations of ATP. This strategy led to the discovery of a non-ATP competitive thioquinazolinone series which was optimized for potency and stability. An X-ray crystal structure for the complex of our best inhibitor bound to Chk1 was solved, indicating that it binds to an allosteric site similar to 13 angstrom from the ATP binding site. Preliminary data is presented for several of these compounds. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
