Abstract:KRAS, a common human oncogene, has been recognized as a critical drug target in treating multiple cancers. After four decades of effort, one allosteric KRAS drug (Sotorasib) has been approved, inspiring more KRAS-targeted drug research. Here we provide the features of KRAS binding pockets and ligand-binding characteristics of KRAS complexes using a structural systems pharmacology approach. Three distinct binding sites (conserved nucleotide-binding site, shallow Switch-I/II pocket, and allosteric Switch-II/α3 p… Show more
