Abstract
Pim-1 kinase is a cytoplasmic serine/threonine kinase that controls programmed cell death by phosphorylating substrates that regulate both apoptosis and cellular metabolism. A series of 2-styrylquinolines and quinoline-2-carboxamides has been identified as potent inhibitors of the Pim-1 kinase. The 8-hydroxy-quinoline 7-carboxylic acid moiety appeared to be a crucial pharmacophore for activity. Molecular modeling indicated that interaction of this scaffold with Asp186 and Lys67 residues within the ATP-binding pocket might be responsible for the kinase inhibitory potency.
