    Abstract

    We report the first application of coordination complexes as functional proteomimetics of the Src homology 2 (SH2) phosphopeptide-binding domain. As a proof-of-concept, functionalized bis-dipicolylamine (BDPA) copper(II) complexes are shown to disrupt oncogenic Stat3-Stat3 protein complexes and elicit promising anti-tumour activity.
