Defining the Active Conformation of Typical Protein Kinase Domains from Substrate-Bound PDB Structures Enables Active-State AlphaFold2 Models for All 437 Human Catalytic Protein Kinases
2026-02-19
Abstract excerpt
Humans have 437 catalytically competent protein kinase domains with the typical kinase fold, similar to the structure of Protein Kinase A (PKA). The active form of a kinase must satisfy requirements for binding ATP, magnesium, and substrate. From structural bioinformatics analysis of 248 crystal structures of 54 unique substrate-bound kinases, we derived structural criteria for the active form of typical protein k...
