Abstrakt: MST1, MST2, MST3, MST4, and YSK1 are conserved members of the mammalian sterile 20-like serine/threonine (MST) family that regulate cellular functions such as proliferation and migration. The MST3 isozyme plays a role in regulating cell growth and apoptosis, and its dysregulation has been linked to high-grade tumors. To date, there are no isoform-selective inhibitors that could be used for validating the role of MST3 in tumorigenesis. We designed a series of 3-aminopyrazole-based macrocycles based on the structure of a promiscuous inhibitor. By varying the moieties targeting the solvent-exposed region and optimizing the linker, macrocycle JA310 ( 21c ) was synthesized. JA310 exhibited high cellular potency for MST3 (EC 50 = 106 nM) and excellent kinome-wide selectivity. The crystal structure of the MST3-JA310 complex provided intriguing insights into the binding mode, which is associated with large-scale structural rearrangements. In summary, JA310 demonstrates the utility of macrocyclization for the design of highly selective inhibitors and presents the first chemical probe for MST3.
