Fig. 1: Lorlatinib is predicted to bind to LTK and ALK.

a Schematic representation of LTK and ALK protein. LTK and ALK are formed with three regions: extracellular, transmembrane, and intracellular region. They consist of 864 amino acids (aa) and 1620 aa respectively. MAM, meprin, A-5 protein, and receptor protein-tyrosine phosphatase μ domain; LDLa, low-density lipoprotein class A motif; Gly_rich, glycine rich region; TM, transmembrane region. b The lorlatinib-binding mode for the LTK kinase domain. The protein is depicted by a surface model (I565, blue; L590, red; L592, orange; G596, cyan; D597, yellow; L650, magenta; others, gray) and lorlatinib is depicted by sticks (C, green; N, blue; and O, red). An enlarged view of the ATP-binding pocket is shown in the left panel. In the right panel, hydrogen bonds between LTK residues (E591 and M593) and lorlatinib are shown as dashed yellow lines.
