Plk1 is composed of a catalytic kinase domain (KD), a flexible interdomain linker and a polo-box domain (PBD). Intramolecular protein–protein interactions (PPIs) between the PBD and KD result in “auto-inhibition” that is an essential component of proper Plk1 function. Recently, we developed high-affinity PBD-binding inhibitors using a bivalent approach. These ligands contain the low-nanomolar affinity Plk1 KD-binding inhibitors BI2536 or Wortmannin tethered to the PBD-binding peptide, PLH*SpT (H* represents a –(CH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>8</sub>Ph group on the histidine side chain π-nitrogen). Due to the extremely high affinity of these bivalent inhibitors, to avoid bottoming out in competitive binding assays, it was necessary to use PLH*SpT in the affinity probe. As reported herein, we have developed fluorescence polarization assays using a new fluorescent probe based on the Plk1 PBD-binding peptide, FDPPLHSpTA. We applied the assay to evaluate the affinities of bivalent inhibitors that possess a variety of PBD-binding peptides having much lower PBD-affinities than PLH*SpT. Tethering BI2536 in these bivalent inhibitors resulted in significant affinity enhancements as compared to the parent monovalent peptides.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":255,"journal":{"name":"Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry","volume":"119 ","pages":"Article 118055"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143104563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
