Molecular basis for the disruption of Keap1–Nrf2 interaction via Hinge & Latch mechanism

Using NMR spectroscopy, Horie, Suzuki, Inoue et al. show that the dissociation of Keap1 from Nrf2, or the Hinge-Latch mechanism, is triggered by Keap1-Nrf2 inhibitors and occurs during p62- mediated Nrf2 activation, but not by electrophilic Nrf2 inducers. This study provides insights into the design...
