Abstract
The present invention relates to the X-ray analysis of crystalline molecules or molecular complexes of human Pim-1. The present invention also relates to Pim-1-like binding pockets. The present invention provides a computer comprising a data storage medium encoded with the structure coordinates of such binding pockets. This invention also relates to methods of using the structure coordinates to solve the structure of homologous proteins or protein complexes. In addition, this invention relates to methods of using the structure coordinates to screen for and design compounds, including inhibitory compounds, that bind to Pim-1 protein, Pim-1 protein complexes, or homologues thereof. The invention also relates to crystallizable compositions and crystals comprising Pim-1 protein, Pim-1 protein complexes with adenosine, staurosporine or 2-(4-morpholinyl)-8-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one and methods to produce these crystals.
