    Description: The Ras-like GTPases RalA and RalB are important drivers of tumour growth and metastasis. Chemicals that block Ral function would be valuable as research tools and for cancer therapeutics. Here we used protein structure analysis and virtual screening to identify drug-like molecules that bind to a site on the GDP-bound form of Ral. The compounds RBC6, RBC8 and RBC10 inhibited the binding of Ral to its effector RALBP1, as well as inhibiting Ral-mediated cell spreading of murine embryonic fibroblasts and anchorage-independent growth of human cancer cell lines. The binding of the RBC8 derivative BQU57 to RalB was confirmed by isothermal titration calorimetry, surface plasmon resonance and (1)H-(15)N transverse relaxation-optimized spectroscopy (TROSY) NMR spectroscopy. RBC8 and BQU57 show selectivity for Ral relative to the GTPases Ras and RhoA and inhibit tumour xenograft growth to a similar extent to the depletion of Ral using RNA interference. Our results show the utility of structure-based discovery for the development of therapeutics for Ral-dependent cancers.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4351747/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4351747/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yan, Chao -- Liu, Degang -- Li, Liwei -- Wempe, Michael F -- Guin, Sunny -- Khanna, May -- Meier, Jeremy -- Hoffman, Brenton -- Owens, Charles -- Wysoczynski, Christina L -- Nitz, Matthew D -- Knabe, William E -- Ahmed, Mansoor -- Brautigan, David L -- Paschal, Bryce M -- Schwartz, Martin A -- Jones, David N M -- Ross, David -- Meroueh, Samy O -- Theodorescu, Dan -- CA075115/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA091846/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA104106/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM47214/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA104106/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P30 CA044579/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P30 CA046934/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P50 CA091846/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA075115/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA143971/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32 GM007635/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- UL1 TR001082/TR/NCATS NIH HHS/ -- UL1TR001082/TR/NCATS NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2014 Nov 20;515(7527):443-7. doi: 10.1038/nature13713.

    Description: Overexpression of CD24, a glycosyl phosphatidylinositol-linked sialoglycoprotein, is associated with poor outcome in urothelial carcinoma and contributes to experimental tumor growth and metastasis. However, the requirement for CD24 (Cd24a in mice) in tumorigenesis and spontaneous metastasis from the orthotopic site remains uncharacterized. Using N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl) nitrosamine induction of invasive and metastatic...
