The authors examined some in silico approaches to identify Akt (protein kinase B) inhibitors. Experimental validation of selected compounds was achieved using a fluorescence-based enzymic assay and a substrate phosphorylation assay involving the protein GSK-3.

Abstract

The authors examined some in silico approaches to identify Akt (protein kinase B) inhibitors. Experimental validation of selected compounds was achieved using a fluorescence-based enzymic assay and a substrate phosphorylation assay involving the protein GSK-3. The authors report on success and failure obtained by using several strategies including FlexX, GOLD, and CSCORE, where the 100-200 top-scoring compds. from a 50,000-compd. library were exptl. tested. This study led to the identification of low micromolar Akt1 inhibitors.
