N-terminal and C-terminal modulation of Hsp90 produce dissimilar phenotypes

Abstract

Classic oncogenic heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) inhibitors target the N-terminus of the protein, triggering a survival mechanism in cancer cells referred to as the heat shock response (HSR). Inhibiting Hsp90 by modulating the C-terminus does not trigger a HSR, making it a highly attractive chemotherapeutic approach.
