involved in the phosphorylation of α‐synuclein in Lewy bodies, which are one of the hallmarks of Parkinson’s disease neuropathology. Potent, selective, brain‐penetrant inhibitors of Plk‐2 were obtained from a structure‐guided drug discovery approach driven by the first reported Plk‐2–inhibitor complexes. The best of these compounds showed excellent isoform and kinome‐wide selectivity, with physicochemical
