Serendipitous alkylation of a Plk1 ligand uncovers a new binding channel

We obtained unanticipated synthetic byproducts from alkylation of the δ[superscript 1] nitrogen (N3) of the histidine imidazole ring of the polo-like kinase-1 (Plk1) polo-box domain (PBD)-binding peptide PLHSpT. For the highest-affinity byproduct, bearing a C[subscript 6]H[subscript 5](CH[subscript...
