Discovery and Characterization of a Nonphosphorylated Cyclic Peptide Inhibitor of the Peptidylprolyl Isomerase, Pin1
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Phage panning led to the discovery of a disulfide-cyclized peptide CRYPEVEIC that inhibits Pin1 activity with a K(I) of 0.5 μM. NMR chemical shift perturbation experiments show that cyclic CRYPEVEIC binds to the active site of Pin1. Pin1 residues K63 and R68, which bind the phosphate of substrate peptides, do not show a significant chemical shift change in response to binding of cyclic CRYPEVEIC, consistent with absence of phosphate on the peptide. Cyclic CRYPEVEIC adopts a stable conformation with the side chains of the Y, P, V, and I residues packed together on one side of the ring. Cyclic CRYPEVEIC in solution exists as a mixture of two species, with a 1:4 cis/trans ratio for the Y-P bond. This mixture is stabilized to a single conformation when bound to Pin1. The constrained structure of cyclic CRYPEVEIC apparently facilitates high affinity binding without the presence of a phosphate group.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
