Structure Based Design of Bicyclic Peptide Inhibitors of RbAp48. Angew.Chem.Int.Ed.Engl., 60:1813-1820, 2021 Cited by PubMed Abstract: The scaffolding protein RbAp48 is part of several epigenetic regulation complexes and is overexpressed in a variety of cancers. In order to develop tool compounds for the study of RbAp48 function, we have developed peptide inhibitors targeting the protein-protein interaction interface between RbAp48 and the scaffold protein MTA1. Based on a MTA1-derived linear peptide with low micromolar affinity and informed by crystallographic analysis, a bicyclic peptide was developed that inhibits the RbAp48/MTA1 interaction with a very low nanomolar K value of 8.56 nM, and which showed appreciable stability against cellular proteases. Design included exchange of a polar amide cyclization strategy to hydrophobic aromatic linkers enabling mono- and bicyclization by means of cysteine alkylation, which improved affinity by direct interaction of the linkers with a hydrophobic residue on RbAp48. Our results demonstrate that stepwise evolution of a structure-based design is a suitable strategy for inhibitor development targeting PPIs.
