In the X-ray crystal structure, prototypical antagonists adopt a U-shaped conformation within the binding site of GluN2A subunit containing NMDA receptors. [2.2]Paracyclophanes were designed and synthesized to mimic this unconventional conformation. Although docking studies revealed promising binding poses, the inhibition of the ion channel was rather low.
在 X 射线晶体结构中,原型拮抗剂在包含 NMDA 受体的 GluN2A 亚基的结合位点内采用 U 形构象。[2.2] 对环芳烃的设计和合成是为了模仿这种非常规构象。尽管对接研究揭示了有前途的结合姿势,但离子通道的抑制作用相当低。
