FIG. 3. Structure of BX-320 bound to the catalytic domain of PDK1 (PDB code 1Z5M [PDB] ). We crystallized the PDK1 catalytic domain (residues 51-359) as described by Biondi et al. (30). BX-320 was introduced into PDK1 crystals and the structure determined from x-ray diffraction data to a resolution 2.17 angstroms. As shown, BX-320 binds in the ATP binding pocket, making two hydrogen bonds through aminopyrimidine nitrogens to Ala^162 located in the hinge region.
