In LI-F04a these are D-Asn, L-Val and D-Val. A unique 15-guanidino-3-hydroxypentadecanoyl (GHPD) side chain is appended to the cyclic peptide

  • -docking experiments using the cyclic peptide Cilengitide® (cyclo-[RGDfN(Me)V]) [27] as a ligand. The orientation of the pentapeptide Cilengitide and its binding to the binding site formed by the α and β chains of αvβ3 reproduced the published X-ray structure with high accuracy. The method thus validated
  • was then used to dock GSF in silico to the same surface area. This resulted in two binding sites. One site was identical to the binding site described for the RGD motif [28] of the cyclic peptide and a second binding site was located inside the β-propeller domain of the αv domain (Figure 4A). This
  • binding site is probably a nonfunctional site since it is most likely not accessible for “surface bound” molecules such as ECM proteins. It is therefore possible that GSF blocks the functional binding site of natural ligands and the synthetic cyclic peptide Cilengitide (Figure 4B), explaining the observed
