Crystal structure of human NAMPT with fragment 2: 2-[(2-fluorophenyl)amino]-6-propylpyrimidin-4(3H)-oneCrystal structure of human NAMPT with fragment 2: 2-[(2-fluorophenyl)amino]-6-propylpyrimidin-4(3H)-one
Structural highlights
FunctionNAMPT_HUMAN Catalyzes the condensation of nicotinamide with 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate to yield nicotinamide mononucleotide, an intermediate in the biosynthesis of NAD. It is the rate limiting component in the mammalian NAD biosynthesis pathway (By similarity). Publication Abstract from PubMedNAMPT expression is elevated in many cancers, making this protein a potential target for anticancer therapy. We have carried out both NMR based and TR-FRET based fragment screens against human NAMPT and identified six novel binders with a range of potencies. Co-crystal structures were obtained for two of the fragments bound to NAMPT while for the other four fragments force-field driven docking was employed to generate a bound pose. Based on structural insights arising from comparison of the bound fragment poses to that of bound FK866 we were able to synthetically elaborate one of the fragments into a potent NAMPT inhibitor.
