We unveiled an underside binding site on smoothened receptor (SMO) by a colocalization strategy using two structurally complementary photoaffinity probes derived from a known ligand Allo-1. Docking study and structural dissection identified key interactions within the site, including hydrogen bonding, π-π interactions, and hydrophobic interactions between Allo-1 and its contacting residues. Taken together, our results reveal the molecular base of Allo-1 binding and provide a basis for the design of new-generation ligands to overcome drug resistance.
