Patent ID: 11820837

Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a modified peptide including (i) an amino acid sequence (X)-GRT-(Y)-TLC-(Z), or (ii) an amino acid sequence having at least 40% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence (X)-GRT-(Y)-TLC-(Z), wherein X, Y, and Z are the same as described in the specification. In this regard, methods for inhibiting the activity of at least one enzyme selected from the group consisting of AKT1 (PKB alpha), AKT2 (PKB beta), MAP3K8 (COT), MST4, AURKB (Aurora B), ROCK1, RPS6KB1 (p70S6K), CDC42 BPA (MRCKA), BRAF, RAF1 (cRAF) Y340D Y341D, SGK (SGK1), MAP4K4 (HGK), AURKA (Aurora A), AURKC (Aurora C), BRAF V599E, CHEK1 (CHK1), GSG2 (Haspin), CHEK2 (CHK2), FGR, IKBKB (IKK beta), CDK7/cyclin H/MNAT1, and CDC42 BPB (MRCKB) and Abl; and inhibiting cell proliferation are also provided, as are methods for preventing or treating cancer or a neurodegenerative disease or disorder.
