Abstract excerpt
pp32r1 (ANP32C) is oncogenic and has been shown to be overexpressed in tumors of the breast, prostate, and pancreas. In this work we show that pp32 family proteins are able to bind to the sphingosine analog FTY720 (Finguimod). Molecular docking studies highlight that a conserved residue F136 is likely to be a key determinant of the FTY720 binding site on the pp32 leucine-rich repeat domain. Transduction of the...
