Description
LYN-1604 is a potential agonist with of 1.66 μM against MDA-MB-231 cells and it binds to wild-type ULK1 with a binding affinity in the nanomole range (=291.4 nM). The ULK1 (Y89A) mutant protein caused a sharp decrease in binding affinity with lower response and Kd than wild-type ULK1, ULK1 (K50A) and ULK1 (L53A) mutants.
LYN-1604 is a ULK1 agonist. Three amino acid residues (LYS50, LEU53, and TYR89) are key to the activation site of LYN-1604 and ULK1 by site-directed mutagenesis and biochemical assays. LYN-1604 induces cell death involved in ATF3, RAD21, and caspase3, accompanied by autophagy and apoptosis. LYN-1604 is bound to wild-type ULK1 with a binding affinity in the nanomole range (KD = 291.4 nM), but the ULK1Y89A mutant protein causes a sharp decrease in binding affinity with lower response and Kd than wild-type ULK1, ULK1K50A and ULK1L53A mutants.
In vivo
LYN-1604 could significantly inhibit the growth of xenograft MDA-MB-231 cells. LYN-1604 can directly activate ULK1, the initiator of autophagy, thereby inducing cell death to inhibit the growth of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) in vitro and in vivo.
