K-Ras(G12C) inhibitor 9

Description

K-Ras(G12C) inhibitor 9 is an irreversible, allosteric inhibitor of the K-Ras(G12C) mutant that causes 100% modification of the protein when used at 10 μM for 24 hours in vitro. K-Ras is a small GTPase that cycles between a GTP-bound active state and a GDP-bound inactive state to turn on downstream Raf kinases to drive cell growth. A G12C mutation in K-Ras blocks GTP hydrolysis, activates K-Ras, and promotes carcinogenesis. Similar K-Ras(G12C) inhibitors significantly reduce GTP affinity relative to GDP, decrease Raf binding, and lower cell viability while increasing apoptosis.

The Uses of K-Ras(G12C) inhibitor 9

N-[1-[2-[(4-Chloro-5-iodo-2-methoxyphenyl)amino]acetyl]-4-piperidinyl]ethenesulfonamide is an allosteric inhibitor of tumor-promoting K-Ras(G12c).

in vitro

k-ras(g12c) inhibitor 9 belongs to a series of small molecules, which irreversibly compete with gtp and gdp for binding to a common oncogenic k-ras(g12c) mutant and blocked the association of b-raf and c-raf with k-ras(g12c). k-ras(g12c) inhibitor 9 (10 μm) decreased viability and increased apoptosis of g12c mutations-containing lung cancer cell lines (h1792, calu-1, h358, and h23) [1].
