Abstract
Although the crystal structure of the anti-cancer target protein kinase B (PKBbeta/Akt-2) has been useful in guiding inhibitor design, the closely related kinase PKA has generally been used as a structural mimic due to its facile crystallization with a range of ligands. The use of PKB-inhibitor crystallography would bring important benefits, including a more rigorous understanding of factors dictating PKA/PKB selectivity, and the opportunity to validate the utility of PKA-based surrogates. We present a "back-soaking" method for obtaining PKBbeta-ligand crystal structures, and provide a structural comparison of inhibitor binding to PKB, PKA, and PKA-PKB chimera. One inhibitor presented here exhibits no PKB/PKA selectivity, and the compound adopts a similar binding mode in all three systems. By contrast, the PKB-selective inhibitor A-443654 adopts a conformation in PKB and PKA-PKB that differs from that with PKA. We provide a structural explanation for this difference, and highlight the ability of PKA-PKB to mimic the true PKB binding mode in this case.

Figure 5. Inhibitor 2 binding to PKA and PKB. (a) PKA-2 and (b) PKB-2 (in the region of the ATP site). Final 2mF[o]–DF[c] electron density for the inhibitors is contoured at 1σ and shown in blue. (c) Superposition of PKA-2 (grey) and PKB-2 (yellow). Residues are labelled using PKB numbering. (d) Schematic diagram showing binding of 2 to PKA and PKB. Key non-covalent interactions are depicted as broken lines. The alternative positions of the indole ring are shown by shading: PKA (light grey) and PKB (black). (e) Surface representation of PKB with compound 2 bound. The surface was coloured by lipophilicity in AstexViewer^46 using the method described by Gaillard et al.,^53 with red/pink representing the most lipophilic regions, and blue/green the least lipophilic. The putative methyl-aromatic interaction discussed in the text is shown as a broken line. (f) Overlay of surfaces for PKA (grey) and PKB (yellow) with compound 2 bound. The indole group of 2 packs with the side-chain of Met282, but would leave a cavity in PKA due to the substitution by leucine at this point in the active site.
