  1. Abstract:

    One of the critical intracellular signal transduction pathways involves the binding of the Grb2 SH2 domain to the phosphotyrosine (pTyr) motifs on growth factor receptors, such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and erbB2, leading to downstream activation of the oncogenic Ras signaling pathway. Therefore, the Grb2 SH2 domain has been chosen as our target for the development of potential anticancer agents. As a continuation of our earlier work, herein we report the design and synthesis of new peptide analogs, and their inhibitory effect on the Grb2 SH2 domain using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technology. These novel agents do not contain phosphotyrosine or phosphotyrosine mimics. Binding interactions between these peptides and the Grb2 SH2 domain were measured and analyzed using a BIAcore X instrument, which provides detailed information on the real-time detection of the binding interaction. The results of this study should provide important information for the further development of peptides or peptidomimetics with high affinity for the Grb2 SH2 domain.
