What is Towards a Model for the Inhibition of Choline Kinase by a New Type of Inhibitor about?
Bispyridinium cyclophanes are novel templates for human choline kinase inhibitors. Molecular modelling of these compounds suggests three anchorage places at the binding site of the enzyme: (i) two anionic centres of the enzyme active site separated from each other at a distance of approximately 6.2 A that bind the two positively charged nitrogen atoms; (ii) a wide hydrophobic pocket that is fulfilled by the upper linker, the benzene ring that links the two amino groups; and (iii) a smaller hydrophobic pocket that can accommodate the lower benzene ring that links both benzylic carbons. This study may be useful for the development of more potent inhibitors of the enzyme.
