Targeting NOX2 via p47/phox-p22/phox Inhibition with Novel Triproline Mimetics
Bibliographic record
Abstract
On the basis of the knowledge that the proline-rich hot spot PPP RPP region of P(151)PSNPPPRPP(160), an oligopeptide derived from the cytosolic portion of p22 phox (p22), binds to the single functional bis-SH3 domain of the regulatory protein p47 phox (p47), we designed a mimetic of the tripeptide PPP based on NMR and X-ray crystallographic data for the p22(151−161) peptide PPSN PPP RPPA with a peptide construct. Incorporation of the synthetic pseudo-triproline mimetic Pro-Pro-Cyp in a molecule derived from molecular modeling studies led to only a 7-fold diminution in activity in a surface plasmon resonance assay relative to the same molecule containing the natural Pro-Pro-Pro tripeptide. The alternative sequence corresponding to a Pro-Cyp-Pro insertion was inactive. This is a first example of the use of a triproline mimetic to interfere with the formation of the p47–p22 complex, which is critical for the activation of NOX, leading to the production of reactive oxygen species as superoxide anions.

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.
