Description
GSK2606414 is a potent and selective inhibitor of protein kinase R-like ER kinase (PERK) with IC50 value of 0.4 nM.
Product Overview
GSK2606414 is a selective inhibitor of PERK with IC50 value of 0.4nM. PERK (PRKR-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase or protein kinase R (PKR)-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase) is also known as EIF2AK3 (Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2-alpha kinase 3). PERK is encoded by EIF2AK3 gene. It belongs to type I membrane protein family. It located in the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) and is induced by ER stress which is caused from malfolded proteins. It causes the inactive of EIF2 (eukaryotic translation-initiation factor 2) by phosphorylating the alpha subunit. PERK can lead to repression of global protein synthesis and a rapid reduction of translational initiation. PERK has been identified to interact with NFE2L2 and DNAJC3.PERK mutation is related to WRS (Wolcott-Rallison syndrome) which is a autosomal recessive disorder with multiple epiphyseal dysplasia,infancy-onset diabetes mellitus, osteopenia, mental retardation, and hepatic and renal dysfunction. GSK2606414 inhibits the activity of PERK with IC50 of 0.4 nM by measuring the cytoplasmic PERK domain phosphorylation. GSK2606414 directly bind to PERK as measured in X-ray structure. GSK2606414 completely inhibit PERK phosphorylation at 30 nM in A549 cells. GSK2606414 has selective inhibition effect on PERK compared to a panel of 294 kinases. There only 20 protein kinases except PERK inhibited >85% by GSK2606414 at 10 μM. GSK2606414 inhibited tumor growth with a dose-dependent manner from 50 to 150 mg/kg in mice bearing pancreatic human BxPC3 tumors.
