Abstract excerpt
Phosphoinositide-3-kinase, catalytic, alpha polypeptide, which encodes the catalytic p110α subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase α, is the most frequently mutated oncogene in human cancers. Targeting mutant p110α holds great promise for cancer therapy. However, it is challenging to develop p110α isoform-specific inhibitors. Most p110α mutations occur at two hot spot regions: an acidic cluster (E542, E545, and...
