The class of chemicals called HSP90 activators includes compounds that can indirectly modulate the activity of HSP90 by affecting its ATPase function, binding to its N-terminal domain or ATP-binding pocket, and promoting the degradation of client proteins. These activators, such as geldanamycin, radicicol, and their derivatives, interfere with the chaperone function of HSP90, leading to the destabilization and degradation of client proteins that rely on HSP90 for their proper folding and function. Other compounds, such as novobiocin, EGCG, and curcumin, can indirectly modulate HSP90 activity by affecting its ATPase function and influencing the stability of client proteins.
By targeting HSP90, these chemicals have the potential to disrupt key cellular processes that rely on HSP90-mediated protein folding and stabilization. HSP90 is involved in the maturation and stability of various client proteins, including kinases, transcription factors, and steroid hormone receptors. Its inhibition can lead to the degradation of these client proteins, thereby influencing signaling pathways involved in cell growth, survival, and stress response.
