Imatinib and other type II tyrosine kinase inhibitors bind to the inactive conformation of the PDGF receptors at site near the ATP-binding site that is not present in the active conformation (reviewed in Klug et al, 2018). Juxtamembrane domain mutants of PDGFRA such as V561D relieve the autoinhibition of the receptor without completely driving the equilibrium to the fully active form; as a result, juxtamembrane mutants tend to be sensitive to type II TKIs. Mutations in the activation loop, in contrast, much more strongly shift the equilibrium of the protein toward the active state, and mutations in this region, such as the most prevalent D842V, tend to be resistant to type II TKIs (reviewed in Roskoski, 2018; Klug et al, 2018)
