![]() Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |

Mechanism Of Action and Pharmacodynamic Effects ![]() |
LIM domain kinases and the related testis-specific protein kinases are known to phosphorylate the actin-binding protein cofilin [1,4,6]. This phosphorylation has an inhibitory effect on cofilin's interaction with F-actin and acts to depolymerise actin, having profound effects on the cytoskeleton [3,5]. LIM kinase inhibitors are being pursued as anti-cancer agents with effects on the invasiveness and metastatic capacity of tumour cells. |
