Identification of Novel GSK-3 beta Hits Using Competitive Biophysical Assays. Int J Mol Sci, 23:-, 2022 Cited by PubMed Abstract: Glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK-3β) is an evolutionarily conserved serine-threonine kinase dysregulated in numerous pathologies, such as Alzheimer's disease and cancer. Even though GSK-3β is a validated pharmacological target most of its inhibitors have two main limitations: the lack of selectivity due to the high homology that characterizes the ATP binding site of most kinases, and the toxicity that emerges from GSK-3β complete inhibition which translates into the impairment of the plethora of pathways GSK-3β is involved in. Starting from a 1D F NMR fragment screening, we set up several biophysical assays for the identification of GSK-3β inhibitors capable of binding protein hotspots other than the ATP binding pocket or to the ATP binding pocket, but with an affinity able of competing with a reference binder. A phosphorylation activity assay on a panel of several kinases provided selectivity data that were further rationalized and corroborated by structural information on GSK-3β in complex with the hit compounds. In this study, we identified promising fragments, inhibitors of GSK-3β, while proposing an alternative screening workflow that allows facing the flaws that characterize the most common GSK-3β inhibitors through the identification of selective inhibitors and/or inhibitors able to modulate GSK-3β activity without leading to its complete inhibition.
