Targeting the protein-protein interface pocket of Aurora-A-TPX2 complex: rational drug design and validation
25 May 2020
Abstract excerpt
Aurora-A is a novel therapeutic target that belongs to the serine/threonine kinase family of proteins. Several cancers are associated with gene amplification or over-expression of Aurora-A. The somatic mutation (S155R) in Aurora-A results in a loss of interaction with its binding partner TPX2. The S155R mutation thus leads to ectopic expression of Aurora-A, resulting in centrosome amplification, chromosomal...
