Abstract
|
 |
|
The c-Jun terminal kinases (JNKs) are members of the mitogen-activated protein
(MAP) kinase family and regulate signal transduction in response to
environmental stress. Activation of JNK3, a neuronal-specific isoform, has been
associated with neurological damage, and as such, JNK3 may represent an
attractive target for the treatment of neurological disorders. The MAP kinases
share between 50% and 80% sequence identity. In order to obtain efficacious and
safe compounds, it is necessary to address the issues of potency and
selectivity. We report here four crystal structures of JNK3 in complex with
three different classes of inhibitors. These structures provide a clear picture
of the interactions that each class of compound made with the kinase. Knowledge
of the atomic interactions involved in these diverse binding modes provides a
platform for structure-guided modification of these compounds, or the de novo
design of novel inhibitors that could satisfy the need for potency and
selectivity.

Figure 1. Schematic Representation of the ATP Binding Site
in KinasesATP (in ball-and-sticks) interacts mainly with the
linker/adenine binding region (1), the ribose binding region
(2), and the phosphate binding region (3). The two hydrophobic
regions I (4) and II (5) do not directly interact with ATP and
contain residues that vary among kinases, thus providing
possibilities for the development of selective inhibitors [17].
Figures 1, 2B, and 3–6 were made with RIBBONS [42].
