Feng, Xixi published the artcileStructure-Affinity Relationship Analysis of Selective FKBP51 Ligands, Recommanded Product: (S)-4-Benzylthiazolidine-2-thione, the main research area is crystal structure FKBP protein psychiatric metabolic disorder.
The FK506-binding protein 51 (FKBP51) is a promising drug target for the treatment of stress-related psychiatric or metabolic disorders. Just recently, the first selective ligands for FKBP51 were reported based on an induced fit mechanism, but they are too large for a further drug development process. The authors therefore designed and synthesized a novel series of selective ligands to explore the requirements necessary for binding to the induced-fit conformation. All ligands of this series show no binding toward the structurally very similar antitarget FKBP52. With the cocrystal structure of the best ligand in this novel series the authors confirmed the induced fit mechanism. Furthermore, the structure-affinity relationship provides information about beneficial structural features, which is valuable for the development of improved FKBP51-directed drugs.
