Structure-based design, synthesis, and evaluation of conformationally constrained mimetics of the second mitochondria-derived activator of caspase that target the X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein/caspase-9 interaction site
Abstract
A successful structure-based design of conformationally constrained second mitochondria-derived activator of caspase (Smac) mimetics that target the XIAP/caspase-9 interaction site is described. The most potent Smac mimetic 12d has a Ki of 350 nM for binding to the XIAP BIR3 domain protein. 12d is found to be effective in enhancing apoptosis induced by cisplatin in PC-3 human prostate cancer cells.
