Synthesis of Hsp90 dimerization modulators

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2006 Jul 1;16(13):3529-32. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2006.03.092. Epub 2006 Apr 18.

Abstract

The synthesis and evaluation of several chemical modulators of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) dimerization is presented. These agents may represent useful tools to study the importance of N-terminal dimerization and also to determine subunit interface(s) in Hsp90.
