Abstract excerpt
Molecular modeling and site directed mutagenesis were used to analyze the structural features determining the unique inhibitor sensitivities of type-III phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase enzymes (PI4Ks). Mutation of a highly conserved Tyr residue that provides the bottom of the hydrophobic pocket for...
