Abstract
|
 |
|
IL-2-inducible T cell kinase plays an essential role in T cell receptor
signaling and is considered a drug target for the treatment of Th2-mediated
inflammatory diseases. By applying high-throughput protein engineering and
crystallization, we have determined the X-ray crystal structures of
IL-2-inducible T cell kinase in complex with its selective inhibitor BMS-509744
and the broad-spectrum kinase inhibitors sunitinib and RO5191614. Sunitinib
uniquely stabilizes IL-2-inducible T cell kinase in the helix C-in conformation
by inducing side chain conformational changes in the ATP-binding site. This
preference of sunitinib to bind to an active kinase conformation is reflective
of its broad-spectrum kinase activity. BMS-509744 uniquely stabilizes the
activation loop in a substrate-blocking inactive conformation, indicating that
structural changes described for Src family kinases are also involved in the
regulation of IL-2-inducible T cell kinase activity. The observed BMS-509744
binding mode allows rationalization of structure-activity relationships reported
for this inhibitor class and facilitates further structure-based drug design.
Sequence-based analysis of this binding mode provides guidance for the rational
design of inhibitor selectivity.
