Figure 7. Comparison of Imatinib-Bound Structures
(A) Structure of c-Src•imatinib (this work, PDB code 2OIQ). The activation loop is disordered from residue 408 to residue 420, and the phosphate-binding P loop is extended, leaving the phenylalanine side chain solvent exposed.
(B) Structure of Abl•imatinib (PDB code 1OPJ [Nagar et al., 2002]). The phosphate-binding loop is kinked toward the C lobe of the kinase, allowing for hydrogen bonds between Tyr253 and Asn322 (not shown).
(C) Structure of c-Kit•imatinib (PDB code 1T46 [Mol et al., 2004]). The phosphate-binding loop is extended, as seen in the structure of c-Src, and Phe600 is solvent exposed.
