    Abstract:
    The Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK signal transduction, an oncogenic pathway implicated in a variety of human cancers, is a key target in anticancer drug design. A novel series of pyrimidylpyrrole ERK inhibitors has been identified. Discovery of a conformational change for lead compound 2, when bound to ERK2 relative to antitarget GSK3, enabled structure-guided selectivity optimization, which led to the discovery of 11e, a potent, selective, and orally bioavailable inhibitor of ERK.
