ABSTRACT:
The present disclosure provides crystals of and structural coordinates of Hepatocyte growth factor activator with and without bound pseudo-substrate or inhibitor. In a specific embodiment, a crystal structure of activated HGFA complexed with a Kunitz domain inhibitor is provided. The crystals and crystal structures are useful, for example, in the design and synthesis of inhibitors of HGFA.
