Patent number: 8883473Abstract: The present invention includes a crystal comprising a complex of the pro form of a matrix metalloprotease (proMMP) and a small-molecule allosteric processing inhibitor that inhibits that activation of the proMMP, methods for identifying small-molecule allosteric processing inhibitors that inhibit the activation of a proMMP, and methods of treatment using small-molecule allosteric processing inhibitors that inhibit the activation of a proMMP. The present invention relates to the crystal structure of a complex of proMMP9 bound to a small-molecule allosteric processing inhibitor that inhibits activation of proMMP9. The invention further relates to the use of the methods and the crystal and related structural information for designing, selecting and/or optimizing small-molecule allosteric processing inhibitors that inhibit activation of proMMP9 and proMMP9 homologues.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2012Date of Patent: November 11, 2014Assignee: Janssen Pharmaceutica N.V.Inventors: Kristi A.

Patent number: 8257698Abstract: A number of soluble engineered forms of MGLL that are suitable for high-throughput screening and protein crystallization, as well as a crystallized form of monoacylglycerol lipase protein (MGLL) and descriptions of the X-ray diffraction patterns are disclosed. The engineered constructs of MGLL permit the expression and purification of protein suitable for crystallography or high-throughput screening and identification of ligands, which can function as active agents to MGLL. The X-ray diffraction patterns allow the three dimensional structure of MGLL to be determined at atomic resolution so that ligand binding sites on MGLL can be identified and the interactions of ligands with MGLL amino acid residues can be modeled. Models prepared using such maps permit the design of ligands which can function as active agents which include, but are not limited to, those that function as inhibitors of MGLL.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2009Date of Patent: September 4, 2012Assignee: Janssen Pharmaceutica N.V.Inventors: Bruce L. Grasberger, Celine Schalk-Hihi, Diane M. Maguire, Frank A. Lewandowski, Cynthia M. Milligan, Richard S. Alexander
