'''NMR Structure of an Antagonists of the XIAP-Caspase-9 Interaction Complexed to the BIR3 domain of XIAP'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
Inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) proteins are overexpressed in many cancers, and have been implicated in tumor growth, pathogenesis, and resistance to, chemo- or radiotherapy. On the basis of the NMR structure of a SMAC, peptide complexed with the BIR3 domain of X-linked IAP (XIAP), a novel, series of XIAP antagonists was discovered. The most potent compounds in, this series bind to the baculovirus IAP repeat 3 (BIR3) domain of XIAP, with single-digit nanomolar affinity and promote cell death in several, human cancer cell lines. In a MDA-MB-231 breast cancer mouse xenograft, model, these XIAP antagonists inhibited the growth of tumors. Close, structural analogues that showed only weak binding to the XIAP-BIR3 domain, were inactive in the cellular assays and showed only marginal in vivo, activity. Our results are consistent with a mechanism in which ligands for, the BIR3 domain of XIAP induce apoptosis by freeing up caspases. The, present study validates the BIR3 domain of XIAP as a target and supports, the use of small molecule XIAP antagonists as a potential therapy for, cancers that overexpress XIAP.
