The adenosine triphosphate (ATP) binding site of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) undergoes a large conformational change during its catalytic cycle. Compounds that target the active site, such as the pyridinyl-imidazole SB203580 and 4-phenylaminodiarylketones,[1, 2] have been shown to bind to p38 MAPK with a high affinity but a low specificity as a result of the high conformational flexibility of these compounds. Increasing the rigidity of small-molecule inhibitors should, therefore, improve the specificity of binding to p38 MAPK.[3] This led to the development of tricyclic dibenzo [a, d] cycloheptenone and dibenzo [b, e] oxepinone inhibitors,[3] which contain condensed ring systems that stabilize the molecular geometry. The crystal structure of p38α MAPK in complex with the tricyclic inhibitor 2-(2-aminophenylamino)-10, 11-dihydrodibenzo [a, d] cyclohepten-5-one [3](1, Figure S1 in the Supporting Information) has been determined by Koeberle et al.[4] at 1.85 resolution. Because crystal structures, especially of kinase complexes, may not reflect the conformation of the kinase in solution,[5] we used NMR spectroscopy to study the binding mode of 1 to p38α in solution at ambient temperature. We measured TROSY spectra of deuterated p38α in complex with 1 (p38α–1, IC50= 104 nm) and assigned 62% of the detected resonances. The TROSY-HSQC spectrum of free p38α has about 75% of the expected signals, which confirms previous studies.[5, 6] Comparison of the spectra of free p38α and p38α–1 reveals chemical shift perturbations at the binding site of the inhibitor. Compound 1 is located in the hydrophobic back pocket and forms hydrogen bonds to the hinge region.[4] Upon binding of 1, the resonances of most of the amino acids that are involved in these contacts disappear as a result of line broadening, which indicates that several conformations are in intermediate exchange; the glycine-rich loop is partly affected in the same way. Figure1A shows an overlay of the TROSY-HN (CO) spectra of free p38α and p38α–1, which are sequentially labeled with 13C and 15N-Leu/15N-Met (see also Figure S2 in the Supporting Information). After the addition of 1, the cross-peaks between Leu108–Met109 and Leu86–Leu87 are no longer detected. TROSY-HSQC spectra with 13C and 15N-His/15N-Leu-labeling give similar results (Figure 1B). Upon binding of 1, the signals from the hinge region that connects the N lobe and the C lobe (His107, Leu108) as well as signals from the hydrophobic pocket (Leu86, Leu87) disappear, whereas amino acids that are distant from the binding pocket (Leu164 and His142 in the C lobe and His80 in the N lobe) have perturbed chemical shifts. From the disappearance of the signals we conclude that the motion on the intermediateexchange timescale (μs–ms) is present in p38α–1 and is similar to that in the p38α–SB203580 complex.[5] This is particularly remarkable because SB203580 and 1 are structurally unrelated. Thus, the complex is more dynamic in the binding site than the free kinase for both flexible SB203580 and rigid 1. To characterize the solution structure of the kinase–inhibitor complex, we measured 1H–15N residual dipolar couplings (RDCs), which are sensitive probes of the orientation of the backbone. 58 RDCs that ranged from À40 to+ 50 Hz with acceptable errors (< 5 Hz) were considered for further analysis. We compared the RDCs of free p38α and p38α–1 without reference to a structure (Figure S3 in the Supporting Information) and found that many of the couplings are very similar. This is an indication that the solution structure of p38α–1 resembles the free form in large parts (Figure S3 in the …
