Abstract
Covalent ligands have attracted increasing attention due to their unique advantages, such as long residence time, high selectivity, and strong binding affinity. They also show promise for targets where previous efforts to identify noncovalent small molecule inhibitors have failed. However, our limited knowledge of covalent binding sites has hindered the discovery of novel ligands. Therefore, developing in silico methods to identify covalent binding sites is highly desirable. Here, we propose DeepCoSI, the first structure-based deep graph learning model to identify ligandable covalent sites in the protein. By integrating the characterization of the binding pocket and the interactions between each cysteine and the surrounding environment, DeepCoSI achieves state-of-the-art predictive performances. The validation on two external test sets which mimic the real application scenarios shows that DeepCoSI has strong ability to distinguish ligandable sites from the others. Finally, we profiled the entire set of protein structures in the RCSB Protein Data Bank (PDB) with DeepCoSI to evaluate the ligandability of each cysteine for covalent ligand design, and made the predicted data publicly available on website.

Abstract
Accumulation of unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) causes ER stress and activates a signaling network known as the unfolded protein response (UPR). Here we characterize how ER stress and the UPR inhibit insulin signaling. We find that ER stress inhibits insulin signaling by depleting the cell surface population of the insulin receptor. ER stress inhibits proteolytic maturation of insulin proreceptors by interfering with transport of newly synthesized insulin proreceptors from the ER to the plasma membrane. Activation of AKT, a major target of the insulin signaling pathway, by a cytosolic, membrane-bound chimera between the AP20187-inducible FV2E dimerization domain and the cytosolic protein tyrosine kinase domain of the insulin receptor was not affected by ER stress. Hence, signaling events in the UPR, such as activation of the JNK mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases or the pseudokinase TRB3 by the ER stress sensors IRE1α and PERK, do not contribute to inhibition of signal transduction in the insulin signaling pathway. Indeed, pharmacologic inhibition and genetic ablation of JNKs, as well as silencing of expression of TRB3, did not restore insulin sensitivity or rescue processing of newly synthesized insulin receptors in ER-stressed cells.

Abstract
Compounds that react irreversibly with cysteines have reemerged as potent and selective tools for altering protein function, serving as chemical probes and even clinically approved drugs. The exquisite sensitivity of human immune cell signaling pathways to oxidative stress indicates the likely, yet still underexploited, general utility of covalent probes for selective chemical immunomodulation. Here, we provide an overview of immunomodulatory cysteines, including identification of electrophilic compounds available to label these residues. We focus our discussion on three protein classes essential for cell signaling, which span the 'druggability' spectrum from amenable to chemical probes (kinases), somewhat druggable (proteases), to inaccessible (phosphatases). Using existing inhibitors as a guide, we identify general strategies to guide the development of covalent probes for selected undruggable classes of proteins and propose the application of such compounds to alter immune cell functions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes Mellitus (DM), is a metabolic disorder characterized by high blood glucose levels. The main types of diabetes mellitus are Diabetes mellitus type I, Diabetes mellitus type II, gestational diabetes and Diabetes of other etiology. Diabetes type II, the Non Insulin Dependent Type (NIDDM) is the most common type, characterized by the impairment in activation of the intracellular mechanism leading to the insertion and usage of glucose after interaction of insulin with its receptor, known as insulin resistance. Although, a number of drugs have been developed for the treatment of diabetes type II, their ability to reduce blood glucose levels is limited, while several side effects are also observed. Furthermore, none of the market drugs targets the enhancement of the action of the intracellular part of insulin receptor or recuperation of the glucose transport mechanism in GLUT4 dependent cells. The Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase (PTP1b) is the main enzyme involved in insulin receptor desensitization and has become a drug target for the treatment of Diabetes type II. Several PTP1b inhibitors have already been found, interacting with the binding site of the enzyme, surrounding the catalytic amino acid Cys215 and the neighboring area or with the allosteric site of the enzyme, placed at a distance of 20 Å from the active site, around Phe280. However, the research continues for finding more potent inhibitors with increased cell permeability and specificity. OBJECTIVE The aim of this review is to show the attempts made in developing of Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase (PTP1b) inhibitors with high potency, selectivity and bioavailability and to sum up the indications for favorable structural characteristics of effective PTP1b inhibitors. METHODS The methods used include a literature survey and the use of Protein Structure Databanks such as PuBMed Structure and RCSB and the tools they provide. CONCLUSION The research for finding PTP1b inhibitors started with the design of molecules mimicking the Tyrosine substrate of the enzyme. The study revealed that an aromatic ring connected to a polar group, which preferably enables hydrogen bond formation, is the minimum requirement for small inhibitors binding to the active site surrounding Cys215. Molecules bearing two hydrogen bond donor/acceptor (Hb d/a) groups at a distance of 8.5-11.5 Å may form more stable complexes, interacting simultaneously with a secondary area A2. Longer molecules with two Hb d/a groups at a distance of 17 Å or 19 Å may enable additional interactions with secondary sites (B and C) that confer stability as well as specificity. An aromatic ring linked to polar or Hb d/a moieties is also required for allosteric inhibitors. A lower distance between Hb d/a moieties, around 7.5 Å may favor allosteric interaction. Permanent inhibition of the enzyme by oxidation of the catalytic Cys215 has also been referred. Moreover, covalent modification of Cys121, placed near but not inside the catalytic pocket has been associated with permanent inhibition of the enzyme.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) play critical roles in cell signaling pathways, but identification of unknown PTPs for a given substrate in live cells remain technically challenging. Here, we synthesized a series of tyrosine-based irreversible PTP inhibitors and characterized by site-specific encoding on substrate proteins in cells with an expanded genetic code. By fine-tuning the chemical reactivity, we identified optimal active amino acid probes to covalently cross-link a PTP and its substrate both in vitro and in mammalian cells. Using HER2 as an example, we provide first direct evidence of HER2 Y1023 and SHP2 cross-linking in situ in living human cells. Moreover, proteomic analysis using our approach identified PTP1B as a novel phosphatase for HER2 that specifically dephosphorylated pY1221 position, which may shed light on the puzzle of PTP1B's role in HER2 positive breast cancer. This novel method provides a useful tool for dissecting tyrosine phosphoregulation in living cells.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases have long been considered key regulators of biological processes and are therefore implicated in the origins of various human diseases. Heterozygosity, mutations, deletions, and the complete loss of some of these enzymes have been reported to cause neurodegenerative diseases, autoimmune syndromes, genetic disorders, metabolic diseases, cancers, and many other physiological imbalances. Vaccinia H1-related phosphatase, also known as dual-specificity phosphatase 3, is a protein tyrosine phosphatase enzyme that regulates the phosphorylation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway, a central mediator of a diversity of biological responses. It has been suggested that vaccinia H1-related phosphatase can act as a tumor suppressor or tumor-promoting phosphatase in different cancers. Furthermore, emerging evidence suggests that this enzyme has many other biological functions, such as roles in immune responses, thrombosis, hemostasis, angiogenesis, and genomic stability, and this broad spectrum of vaccinia H1-related phosphatase activity is likely the result of its diversity of substrates. Hence, fully identifying and characterizing these substrate-phosphatase interactions will facilitate the identification of pharmacological inhibitors of vaccinia H1-related phosphatase that can be evaluated in clinical trials. In this review, we describe the biological processes mediated by vaccinia H1-related phosphatase, especially those related to genomic stability. We also focus on validated substrates and signaling circuitry with clinical relevance in human diseases, particularly oncogenesis.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) are a large family of 107 signaling enzymes that catalyze the hydrolytic removal of phosphate groups from tyrosine residues in a target protein. The phosphorylation status of tyrosine residues on proteins serve as a ubiquitous mechanism for cellular signal transduction. Aberrant function of PTPs can lead to many human diseases, such as diabetes, obesity, cancer, and autoimmune diseases. As the number of disease relevant PTPs increases, there is urgency in developing highly potent inhibitors that are selective towards specific PTPs. Most current efforts have been devoted to the development of active site-directed and reversible inhibitors for PTPs. This review summarizes recent progress made in the field of covalent inhibitors to target PTPs. Here, we discuss the in vivo and in vitro inactivation of various PTPs by small molecule-containing electrophiles, such as Michael acceptors, α-halo ketones, epoxides, and isothiocyanates, etc. as well as oxidizing agents. We also suggest potential strategies to transform these electrophiles into isozyme selective covalent PTP inhibitors.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine kinases (PTK), discovered in the 1970s, have been considered master regulators of biological processes with high clinical significance as targets for human diseases. Their actions are countered by protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTP), enzymes yet underrepresented as drug targets because of the high homology of their catalytic domains and high charge of their catalytic pocket. This scenario is still worse for some PTP subclasses, for example, for the atypical dual-specificity phosphatases (ADUSPs), whose biological functions are not even completely known. In this sense, the present work focuses on the dual-specificity phosphatase 3 (DUSP3), also known as VH1-related phosphatase (VHR), an uncommon regulator of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphorylation. DUSP3 expression and activities are suggestive of a tumor suppressor or tumor-promoting enzyme in different types of human cancers. Furthermore, DUSP3 has other biological functions involving immune response mediation, thrombosis, hemostasis, angiogenesis, and genomic stability that occur through either MAPK-dependent or MAPK-independent mechanisms. This broad spectrum of actions is likely due to the large substrate diversity and molecular mechanisms that are still under scrutiny. The growing advances in characterizing new DUSP3 substrates will allow the development of pharmacological inhibitors relevant for possible future clinical trials. This review covers all aspects of DUSP3, since its gene cloning and crystallographic structure resolution, in addition to its classical and novel substrates and the biological processes involved, followed by an update of what is currently known about the DUSP3/VHR-inhibiting compounds that might be considered potential drugs to treat human diseases.

Abstract
Five new α-aminophosphonates are synthesized and characterized by EA, FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, 31P NMR, ESI-MS and X-ray crystallography. The X-ray analyses reveal that the crystal structures of 1-5 are monoclinic or triclinic system with the space group P 21/c, P-1, P-1, P2(1)/c and P-1, respectively. All P atoms of 1-5 have tetrahedral geometries involving two O-ethyl groups, one Cα atom, and a double bond O atom. The binding interaction of five new α-aminophosphonate N-derivatives (1-5) with calf thymus(CT)-DNA have been investigated by UV-visible and fluorescence emission spectrometry. The apparent binding constant (Kapp) values follows the order: 1 (3.38×105M-1)>2 (3.04×105M-1)>4 (2.52×105M-1)>5 (2.32×105M-1)>3 (2.10×105M-1), suggesting moderate intercalative binding mode between the compounds and DNA. In addition, fluorescence spectrometry of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with the compounds 1-5 showed that the quenching mechanism might be a static quenching procedure. For the compounds 1-5, the number of binding sites were about one for BSA and the binding constants follow the order: 1 (2.72×104M-1)>2 (2.27×104M-1)>4 (2.08×104M-1)>5 (1.79×104M-1)>3 (1.17×104M-1). Moreover, the DNA cleavage abilities of 1 exhibit remarkable changes and the in vitro cytotoxicity of 1 on tumor cells lines (MCF-7, HepG2 and HT29) have been examined by MTT and shown antitumor effect on the tested cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Signalling networks that regulate the progression of cannabinoid CB(1) receptor-mediated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation in neurons are poorly understood. We investigated the cellular mechanisms involved in CB(1) receptor-stimulated ERK phosphorylation in a neuronal cell model. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Murine N18TG2 neuronal cells were used to analyse the effect of specific protein kinase and phosphatase inhibitors on CB(1) receptor-stimulated ERK phosphorylation. The LI-COR In Cell Western assay and immunoblotting were used to measure ERK phosphorylation. KEY RESULTS The time-course of CB(1) receptor-stimulated ERK activation occurs in three phases that are regulated by distinct cellular mechanisms in N18TG2 cells. Phase I (0-5 min) maximal ERK phosphorylation is mediated by CB(1) receptor-stimulated ligand-independent transactivation of multiple receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). Phase I requires G(i/o) βγ subunit-stimulated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activation and Src kinase activation and is modulated by inhibition of cAMP-activated protein kinase A (PKA) levels. Src kinase activation is regulated by the protein tyrosine phosphatases 1B and Shp1. The Phase II (5-10 min) rapid decline in ERK phosphorylation involves PKA inhibition and serine/threonine phosphatase PP1/PP2A activation. The Phase III (>10 min) plateau in ERK phosphorylation is mediated by CB(1) receptor-stimulated, ligand-independent, transactivation of multiple RTKs. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS The complex expression of CB(1) receptor-stimulated ERK activation provides cellular selectivity, modulation of sensitivity to agonists, and coincidence detection with RTK signalling. RTK and PKA pathways may provide routes to novel CB(1) -based therapeutic interventions in the treatment of addictive disorders or neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
In B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) cells, Lyn, a tyrosine kinase belonging to the Src family, is overexpressed and atypically localized in an aberrant cytosolic complex in an active conformation, contributing to the unbalance between cell survival and pro-apoptotic signals. In this study, we demonstrate that Lyn constitutively phosphorylates the immunoreceptor tyrosine inhibitory motifs of the inhibitory cell surface co-receptor CD5, a marker of B-CLL. As a result, CD5 provides an anchoring site to Src homology 2 domain-containing phosphatase 1 (SHP-1), a known negative regulator of hematopoietic cell function, thereby triggering the negative B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling. The subsequent segregation of SHP-1 into two pools, one bound to the inhibitory co-receptor CD5 in an active form, the other in the cytosol in an inhibited conformation, proves crucial for withstanding apoptosis, as shown by the use of phosphotyrosine phosphatase-I-I, a direct inhibitor of SHP-1, or SHP-1 knockdown. These results confirm that Lyn exhibits the unique ability to negatively regulate BCR signaling, in addition to positively regulating effectors downstream of the BCR, and identify SHP-1 as a novel player in the deranged signaling network and as a potential attractive target for new therapeutic strategies in B-CLL.

Abstract
The maxi-anion channel with a large single-channel conductance of >300 pS, and unknown molecular identity, is functionally expressed in a large variety of cell types. The channel is activated by a number of experimental maneuvers such as exposing cells to hypotonic or ischemic stress. The most effective and consistent method of activating it is patch membrane excision. However, the activation mechanism of the maxi-anion channel remains poorly understood at present. In the present study, involvement of phosphorylation/dephosphorylation in excision-induced activation was examined. In mouse mammary fibroblastic C127 cells, activity of the channel was suppressed by intracellular application of Mg-ATP, but not Mg-5'-adenylylimidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP), in a concentration-dependent manner. When a cocktail of broad-spectrum tyrosine phosphatase inhibitors was applied, channel activation was completely abolished, whereas inhibitors of serine/threonine protein phosphatases had no effect. On the other hand, protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors brought the channel out of an inactivated state. In mouse adult skin fibroblasts (MAFs) in primary culture, similar maxi-anion channels were found to be activated on membrane excision, in a manner sensitive to tyrosine phosphatase inhibitors. In MAFs isolated from animals deficient in receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase (RPTP)zeta, activation of the maxi-anion channel was significantly slower and less prominent compared with that observed in wild-type MAFs; however, channel activation was restored by transfection of the RPTPzeta gene. Thus it is concluded that activation of the maxi-anion channel involves protein dephosphorylation mediated by protein tyrosine phosphatases that include RPTPzeta in mouse fibroblasts, but not in C127 cells.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), a large family of signaling enzymes, play essential roles in intracellular signal transduction by regulating the cellular level of tyrosine phosphorylation to control cell growth and differentiation, metabolism, cell migration, gene transcription, ion-channel activity, immune response, cell apoptosis, and bone development. Among all PTPs, protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) plays a seminal role in cellular signaling and in many human diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and obesity. Therefore, small molecular inhibitors of PTP1B can be promising drug candidates. Because of the structural homologies in many families of PTPs, it is a challenging task to find inhibitors specific to each PTP. Recent studies suggested that secondary binding pockets or peripheral binding sites around the conserved active site should be exploited to design novel potent and selective PTP1B inhibitors. In this review, we discuss the structural and biological features of small molecular PTP1B-specific inhibitors, with particular emphasis on small molecular inhibitors targeting PTP1B over the other PTPs that have been synthesized in the past 4 years.

Abstract
Glutaredoxin (GRX) is a glutathione-disulfide oxidoreductase involved in various cellular functions, including the redox-dependent regulation of certain integral proteins. Here we demonstrated that overexpression of GRX suppressed the proliferation of myocardiac H9c2 cells treated with platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB. After stimulation with PDGF-BB, the phosphorylation of PDGF receptor (PDGFR) beta was suppressed in GRX gene-transfected cells, compared with controls. Conversely, the phosphorylation was enhanced by depletion of GRX by RNA interference. In this study we focused on the role of low molecular weight protein-tyrosine phosphatase (LMW-PTP) in the dephosphorylation of PDGFRbeta via a redox-dependent mechanism. We found that depletion of LMW-PTP using RNA interference enhanced the PDGF-BB-induced phosphorylation of PDGFRbeta, indicating that LMW-PTP works for PDGFRbeta. The enhancement of the phosphorylation of PDGFRbeta was well correlated with inactivation of LMW-PTP by cellular peroxide generated in the cells stimulated with PDGF-BB. In vitro, with hydrogen peroxide treatment, LMW-PTP showed decreased activity with the concomitant formation of dithiothreitol-reducible oligomers. GRX protected LMW-PTP from hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidation and inactivation in concert with glutathione, NADPH, and glutathione disulfide reductase. This strongly suggests that retention of activity of LMW-PTP by enhanced GRX expression suppresses the proliferation of cells treated with PDGF-BB via enhanced dephosphorylation of PDGFRbeta. Thus, GRX plays an important role in PDGF-BB-dependent cell proliferation by regulating the redox state of LMW-PTP.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) catalyze the hydrolysis of phosphotyrosyl (pY) proteins to produce tyrosyl proteins and inorganic phosphate. Specific PTPs inhibitors provide useful tools for studying PTP function in signal transduction processes and potential treatment for human diseases such as diabetes, inflammation, and cancer. In this work, trans-beta-nitrostyrene (TBNS) and its derivatives are found to be slow-binding inhibitors against protein tyrosine phosphatases PTP1B, SHP-1, and Yop with moderate potencies (K(I*) = 1-10 microM). Competition experiments with a substrate (pNPP) and iodoacetate indicate that TBNS is active site-directed. The mechanism of inhibition was investigated by UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, (1)H-(13)C heteronuclear single-quantum correlation NMR spectroscopy, and site-directed mutagenesis. These studies suggested a mechanism in which TBNS acts a pY mimetic and binds to the PTP active site to form an initial noncovalent E.I complex, followed by nucleophilic attack on the TBNS nitro group by Cys-215 of PTP1B to form a reversible, covalent adduct as the tighter E.I* complex. TBNS derivatives represent a new class of neutral pY mimetic inhibitors of PTPs.

Abstract
Neuroblastoma is the commonest extracranial solid tumor of childhood and frequently metastasizes to the bone. Bisphosphonates are standard treatment of osteolytic lesions by bone metastasis. Since recent studies suggested direct antitumor effects of bisphosphonates, we screened the toxicity of different bisphosphonates on neuroblastoma cell lines. The nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate pamidronate was significantly more toxic on a panel of eight neuroblastoma cell lines than the non-nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates, clodronate and tiludronate. After 72 h, GI50 concentrations (inhibiting cell growth by 50% compared to untreated controls) for pamidronate ranged from 12.8 to >500 microM. CHLA-90 and SH-SY5Y were the most sensitive cell lines. In CHLA-90, zoledronate was the most cytotoxic bisphosphonate, followed by alendronate, pamidronate and ibandronate. In SH-SY5Y, alendronate was the most cytotoxic bisphosphonate, followed by ibandronate, pamidronate and zoledronate. The GI50 values after 72 h were 34.1 (SH-SY5Y) and 3.97 microM (CHLA-90) for zoledronate, and 22.4 (SH-SY5Y) and 9.55 microM (CHLA-90) for alendronate. Neuroblastoma cells treated with bisphosphonates showed signs of differentiation and finally underwent apoptosis. The observed GI50 concentrations suggest that local nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate concentrations at the bone interface can directly target neuroblastoma cell penetration into the bone matrix. In summary, these observations warrant the investigation of adjuvant bisphosphonate treatment in controlled clinical trials.
