Here we review the use of informatics in structural interactomics, with particular emphasis on understanding interfacial contacts in the development of novel therapeutics and the interpretation of genetic variation. We describe the availability and applicability of structural databases of protein interactions which facilitate this endeavour. We demonstrate the applicability of a structural interactomics approach to the study of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-stimulated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway.

A potent IRAK-4 inhibitor was identified through routine project cross screening. The binding mode was inferred using a combination of in silico docking into an IRAK-4 homology model, surrogate crystal structure analysis and chemical analogue SAR.

The synthesis and profile of a series of amides are described. Some of these compounds were potent IRAK-4 inhibitors and two examples were evaluated in vivo.

In this paper we have investigated at the DFT(B3LYP) level the catalytic cycle for the bis-silylation reaction of alkynes promoted by palladium complexes. A model-system formed by an acetylene molecule, a disilane molecule, and the Pd(PH(3))(2) complex has been used. The most relevant features of this catalytic cycle can be summarized as follows: (i) The first step of the cycle is an oxidative addition involving H(3)Si-SiH(3) and Pd(PH(3))(2).
