Stapled BH3 Peptides against MCL-1: Mechanism and Design Using Atomistic Simulations

Atomistic simulations of a set of stapled alpha helical peptides derived from the BH3 helix of MCL-1 (Stewart et al. (2010) Nat Chem Biol 6: 595–601) complexed to a fragment (residues 172–320) of MCL-1 revealed that the highest affinity is achieved when the staples engage the surface of MCL-1 as has...
