Strain-release alkylation of Asp12 enables mutant selective GTP-state targeting of K-Ras(G12D)
2023-07-02
Abstract excerpt
K-Ras is the most commonly mutated oncogene in human cancer, yet direct small-molecule targeting of K-Ras mutants has been mostly unsuccessful until recently. The discovery of an allosteric pocket under Switch-II with covalent cysteine-crosslinking molecules has allowed for the development of targeted therapies that selectively engage the highly reactive acquired cysteine in the K-Ras(G12C) mutation without affect...
