OverviewOverview

The binding of indirubin-5-sulphonate (E226), a potential anti-tumour, agent and a potent inhibitor (IC(50) = 35 nm) of cyclin-dependent kinase 2, (CDK2) and glycogen phosphorylase (GP) has been studied by kinetic and, crystallographic methods. Kinetic analysis revealed that E226 is a, moderate inhibitor of GPb (K(i) = 13.8 +/- 0.2 micro m) and GPa (K(i) =, 57.8 +/- 7.1 micro m) and acts synergistically with glucose. To explore, the molecular basis of E226 binding we have determined the crystal, structure of the GPb/E226 complex at 2.3 A resolution. Structure analysis, shows clearly that E226 binds at the purine inhibitor site, where caffeine, and flavopiridol also bind [Oikonomakos, N.G., Schnier, J.B., Zographos, S.E., Skamnaki, V.T., Tsitsanou, K.E. & Johnson, L.N.
