Stereoselective binding of an enantiomeric pair of stromelysin-1 inhibitors caused by conformational entropy factors

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2000 Nov 6;10(21):2427-30. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(00)00495-9.

Abstract

Isothermal titration calorimetry was used to analyze the binding of an enantiomeric pair of inhibitors to the stromelysin-1 catalytic domain. Differences in binding affinity are attributable to different conformational entropy penalties suffered upon binding. Two possible explanations for these differences are proposed.
