Allosteric Inhibition of Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase 1B
OverviewOverview
Obesity and type II diabetes are closely linked metabolic syndromes that, afflict >100 million people worldwide. Although protein tyrosine, phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) has emerged as a promising target for the treatment, of both syndromes, the discovery of pharmaceutically acceptable inhibitors, that bind at the active site remains a substantial challenge. Here we, describe the discovery of an allosteric site in PTP1B. Crystal structures, of PTP1B in complex with allosteric inhibitors reveal a novel site located, approximately 20 A from the catalytic site. We show that allosteric, inhibitors prevent formation of the active form of the enzyme by blocking, mobility of the catalytic loop, thereby exploiting a general mechanism, used by tyrosine phosphatases. Notably, these inhibitors exhibit, selectivity for PTP1B and enhance insulin signaling in cells. Allosteric, inhibition is a promising strategy for targeting PTP1B and constitutes a, mechanism that may be applicable to other tyrosine phosphatases.
