G007-LK

General Description

A cell-permeable, triazolyl-vinyl-oxadiazole compound that targets adenosine site of the NAD⁺ pocket in the TNKS PARP domain and acts as a potent and highly selective tankyrase inhibitor (IC₅₀ = 33 and 26 nM, respectively, against TNKS1/PARP5a/ARTD5 and TNKS2/PARP5b/ARTD6 in auto-PARsylation assays), effectively inhibiting murine Wnt3a-induced reporter activity in human HEK293 and murine 10T1/2 cultures (IC_max ~300 and 600 nM, respectively). Shown to display little or no inhibitory potency (IC₅₀ >10 μM) toward 7 other PARP enzymes (PARP1, 2, 3, 6, 7,10,11), 90 kinases, 16 phosphatases, and 75 GPCRs (IC₅₀ >10 μM). Shown to inhibit two CRC lines, COLO-320DM & SW403, colony formation in vitro (200 nM) and tumor expansion in mice in vivo (20 mg/kg via daily i.p.), although G007-LK toxicity is observed at higher dosages (≥30 mg/kg/12 h or 60 mg/kg/d via i.p.).

Please note that the molecular weight for this compound is batch-specific due to variable water content.

Biological Activity

g007-lk is a potent and specific inhibitor of tankyrase 1/2 with ic50 values of 46 and 25 nm [1].the telomeric repeat factor 1 (trf1)-interacting ankyrin-related adp-ribose polymerase 1 (tankyrase 1,tnks1) and tankyrase 2 (tnks2) belong to the subgroup of poly(adp-ribosyl)ating polymerases and regulate the assembly and disassembly of large polymerized structures [1].g007-lk is a potent and specific tankyrase 1/2 inhibitor. g007-lk reduced auto-poly-(adp ribosy)lation of tnks1 and tnks2 with ic50 values of 46 nm and 25 nm, respectively. in wnt3a-induced hek 293 cells, g007-lk inhibited st-luc with ic50 value of 0.05 μm [1]. in sw480 colorectal cancer cell line transfected with gfp-tnks1, g007-lk induces highly dynamic and mobile degradasomes containing phosphorylated beta-catenin, beta-trcp and ubiquitin [2]. in the apc-mutant cell lines, g007-lk reduces cytosolic and nuclear β-catenin protein levels [3].in mice bearing colo-320dm cell xenografts, g007-lk (20 mg/kg twice daily or 40 mg/kg daily) concentration-dependently inhibited tumor growth by 61% and 48%, respectively. also, g007-lk reduced the levels of tnks1/2 and β-catenin, and stabilized axin1/2 [3].
