The present invention is directed to the identification, characterization and three-dimensional structure of a novel ligand binding site of KSP. Binding of ligands to the novel binding site result in a conformational change in the three-dimensional structure of the protein and a modulation of the activity of KSP. This conformational change in turn results in the formation of a novel binding pocket in the KSP protein, which comprises the novel binding site of the instant invention.
本发明涉及KSP的新型配体结合位点的鉴定、表征和三维结构。配体与新型结合位点的结合导致蛋白质的三维结构发生构象变化,并调节KSP的活性。这种构象变化进而导致在KSP蛋白质中形成一个新的结合口袋,其中包括本发明的新型结合位点。
