Figure 6. The Autoinhibition by the Molecular Brake Is a Common Regulatory Mechanism for Many RTKs
(A)–(E) show the presence of the engaged molecular brake at the kinase hinge region of unphosphorylated wild-type FGFR1 (PDB ID: 1FGK), CSF1R (PDB ID: 2I1M), VEGFR2 (PDB ID: 1VR2), TEK (PDB ID: 1FVR), and c-KIT (PDB ID: 1T45) kinases, respectively. (F) shows the disengagement of the molecular brake at the kinase hinge region of an “active” c-KIT kinase (PDB ID: 1PKG). Coloring scheme is as in Figure 3.
