Abstract
Identification of highly selective type II kinase inhibitors is described. Two different chiral peptidomimetic scaffolds were introduced on the tail region of non-selective type II kinase inhibitor GNF-7 to enhance the selectivity. Kinome-wide selectivity profiling analysis showed that type II kinase inhibitor 7a potently inhibited Lck kinase with great selectivity (IC50 of 23.0 nM). It was found that 7a and its derivatives possessed high selectivity for Lck over even structurally conserved all Src family kinases. We also observed that 7a inhibited Lck activation in Jurkat T cells. Moreover, 7a was found to alleviate clinical symptoms in DSS-induced colitis mice. This study provides a novel insight into the design of selective type II kinase inhibitors by adopting chiral peptidomimetic moieties on the tail region.Entities:

Figure 6.Effect of 7a on the Lck (Y394) activation in anti-CD3-treated Jurkat cells. After treatment with CD3 antibody for coating in plates, cells were seeded and then treated with various concentrations of 7a (10, 50, or 100 μM) or A770041 (1 μM) used as a positive control. The phosphorylation of Lck tyrosine in Jurkat cells was activated by anti-CD3 mAb. Total cellular protein was resolved by SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF membranes, and detected with specific p-Lck (Y394) antibody. β-Actin was used as an internal control.

(c, d) Colon length was measured at the end of the experiment (day 7). Data are presented as mean ± SE (n = 6). #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01, ###p < 0.001 vs. the vehicle-treated control group; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 vs. the DSS-treated group. The significance between groups was determined by ANOVA and Dunnett's post-hoc test.
