THE STRUCTURE OF PHOSPHOTYROSINE PHOSPHATASE 1B IN COMPLEX WITH COMPOUND 11

OverviewOverview

Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) has been implicated in the, regulation of the insulin signaling pathway and represents an attractive, target for the design of inhibitors in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, and obesity. Inspection of the structure of PTP1B indicates that potent, PTP1B inhibitors may be obtained by targeting a secondary aryl, phosphate-binding site as well as the catalytic site. We report here the, crystal structures of PTP1B in complex with first and second generation, aryldifluoromethyl-phosphonic acid inhibitors. While all compounds bind in, a previously unexploited binding pocket near the primary binding site, the, second generation compounds also reach into the secondary binding site, and exhibit moderate selectivity for PTP1B over the closely related T-cell, phosphatase. The molecular basis for the selectivity has been confirmed by, single point mutation at position 52, where the two phosphatases differ by, a phenylalanine-to-tyrosine switch. These compounds present a novel, platform for the development of potent and selective PTP1B inhibitors.
