Discovery of allosteric non-covalent KRAS inhibitors that bind with sub-micromolar affinity and disrupt effector binding

2018-10-10

Abstract excerpt

Approximately 15% of all human tumors harbor mutant KRAS, a membrane-associated small GTPase and a notorious oncogene. Somatic mutations that render KRAS constitutively active lead to uncontrolled cell growth, survival, proliferation, and eventually cancer. KRAS is thus a critical anticancer drug target. However, despite aggressive efforts in recent years, there is no drug on the market that directly targets KRAS....
