A Structure-Guided Molecular Chaperone Approach for Restoring the Transcriptional Activity of the p53 Cancer Mutant Y220C
1 Oct 2019
Abstract excerpt
The p53 cancer mutation Y220C creates a conformationally unstable protein with a unique elongated surface crevice that can be targeted by molecular chaperones. We report the structure-guided optimization of the carbazole-based stabilizer PK083. Materials & methods: Biophysical, cellular and x-ray crystallographic techniques have been employed to elucidate the mode of action of the carbazole scaffolds. Results:...
