Abstract
The cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) have been characterized in complex with a variety of inhibitors, but the majority of structures solved are in the inactive form. We have solved the structures of six inhibitors in both the monomeric CDK2 and binary CDK2/cyclinA complexes and demonstrate that significant differences in ligand binding occur depending on the activation state. The binding mode of two ligands in particular varies substantially in active and inactive CDK2. Furthermore, energetic analysis of CDK2/cyclin/inhibitors demonstrates that a good correlation exists between the in vitro potency and the calculated energies of interaction, but no such relationship exists for CDK2/inhibitor structures. These results confirm that monomeric CDK2 ligand complexes do not fully reflect active conformations, revealing significant implications for inhibitor design while also suggesting that the monomeric CDK2 conformation can be selectively inhibited.

Figure 2. Richardson Diagram of the Overlay of Active and Inactive apo-CDK2
(A) Active apo-CDK2 is shown in yellow; inactive apo-CDK2 is shown in blue. The differences in the orientation of the N and C domains and in the large movement of the T-loop upon cyclin binding can be observed upon overlay of the active and inactive structures from residues 170–285.
(B) Electron density difference maps (2F[o] − 1F[c]) in the ATP binding site of the CDK2/cyclin A/4 complex.

(A–C) The overlay shown is residues 77–143 of the same inhibitor (yellow, active; blue, inactive) and with the substituted aniline derivative 4 (yellow) bound in (B) monomeric CDK2 (green) and (C) active (pink) CDK2.
