Selectivity for closely related isoforms of protein kinases is a major challenge in the design of drugs and chemical probes. Covalent targeting of unique cysteines is a potential strategy to achieve selectivity for highly conserved binding sites. Here, we used a pan-LIMK inhibitor to selectively probe LIMK1 over LIMK2 by targeting the LIMK1-specific cysteine C349 located in the glycine-rich loop region. Binding kinetics of both noncovalent and covalent LIMK inhibitors were investigated, and the ...[more]
