摘要 |
The invention relates to the three-dimensional structure of a crystal of an EphB4 receptor complexed with a ligand. The three-dimensional structure of a Receptor-Ligand Complex is disclosed. The receptor-ligand crystal structure, wherein the ligand is an inhibitor molecule, is useful for providing structural information that may be integrated into drug screening and drug design processes. Thus, the invention also relates to methods for utilizing the crystal structure of the Receptor-Ligand Complex for identifying, designing, selecting, or testing inhibitors of the EphB4 receptor protein, such inhibitors being useful as therapeutics for the treatment or modulation of i) diseases; ii) disease symptoms; or iii) the effect of other physiological events mediated by the receptor.
