The Catalytic Subunit of cAMP-dependent Protein Kinase (PKA) in Complex with Rho-kinase Inhibitor Y-27632

Overview

Protein kinases require strict inactivation to prevent spurious cellular, signaling; overactivity can cause cancer or other diseases and, necessitates selective inhibition for therapy. Rho-kinase is involved in, such processes as tumor invasion, cell adhesion, smooth muscle, contraction, and formation of focal adhesion fibers, as revealed using, inhibitor Y-27632. Another Rho-kinase inhibitor, HA-1077 or Fasudil, is, currently used in the treatment of cerebral vasospasm; the related, nanomolar inhibitor H-1152P improves on its selectivity and potency. We, have determined the crystal structures of HA-1077, H-1152P, and Y-27632 in, complexes with protein kinase A (PKA) as a surrogate kinase to analyze, Rho-kinase inhibitor binding properties. Features conserved between PKA, and Rho-kinase are involved in the key binding interactions, while a, combination of residues at the ATP binding pocket that are unique to, Rho-kinase may explain the inhibitors' Rho-kinase selectivity. Further, a, second H-1152P binding site potentially points toward PKA regulatory, domain interaction modulators.
