Comment: CFTRinh-172 binds within the permeation pathway. However, inhibition is not voltage dependent [3] and results from a collapse of the extracellular mouth of the pore (involving rearrangements of TM8, TM12 and TM1) which occurs after inhibitor binding [2-3,6]. Low apparent potency for the pig CFTR (pIC50 5.7) can be increased by introducting mutations in TM8 (introducing the corresponding human residues), despite TM8 not being part of the CFTRinh-172 binding site [2]. CFTRinh-172 has low water solubility, but more soluble analogues have been developed [5]. It has off-target effects on ClC-2 [1], and volume-sensitive outwardly rectifying Cl− conductance (VSORC) [4].
![]() Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |
