Discovery of Covalent Wild-Type Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) Inhibitors Targeting Cys269

Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) catalyses the interconversion of isocitrate and -ketoglutarate and is overexpressed in several cancers, supporting tumour survival and treatment resistance. Inhibitors targeting the oncogenic mutant forms of IDH1 also inhibit the wild-type (WT) protein, but lose substantial potency due to greater competition with native substrates (isocitrate and Mg2+). We…
