Ligands: LC3 Related: 3wiy, 3wiz Gene: MCL1, BCL2L3 (HUMAN) Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [MCL1_HUMAN] Involved in the regulation of apoptosis versus cell survival, and in the maintenance of viability but not of proliferation. Mediates its effects by interactions with a number of other regulators of apoptosis. Isoform 1 inhibits apoptosis. Isoform 2 promotes apoptosis. Publication Abstract from PubMed Mcl-1 and Bcl-xL are crucial regulators of apoptosis, therefore dual inhibitors of both proteins could serve as promising new anticancer drugs. To design Mcl-1/Bcl-xL dual inhibitors, we performed structure-guided analyses of the corresponding selective Mcl-1 and Bcl-xL inhibitors. A co-crystal structure of a pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine derivative with Mcl-1 protein was successfully determined and revealed the protein-ligand binding mode. The key structure for Bcl-xL inhibition was further confirmed through the substructural analysis of ABT-263, a representative Bcl-xL/Bcl-2/Bcl-w inhibitor developed by Abbott Laboratories. Based on the structural data from this analysis, we designed hybrid compounds by tethering the Mcl-1 and Bcl-xL inhibitors together. The results of X-ray crystallographic analysis of hybrid compound 10 in complexes with both Mcl-1 and Bcl-xL demonstrated its binding mode with each protein. Following further optimization, compound 11 showed potent Mcl-1/Bcl-xL dual inhibitory activity (Mcl-1, IC50 = 0.088 muM; and Bcl-xL, IC50 = 0.0037 muM).
