How Kinase inhibitors work
How kinase inhibitors work
Kinase inhibitors can bind different structural states or sites and interfere with phosphorylation signaling.
Overview
EXPLORE BY LEVELA kinase uses ATP to add phosphate tags to other proteins. Some medicines sit in the ATP pocket or another site and prevent the kinase from sending its signal.
