Biological Activity
mps1-in-2 is a potent and selective atp-competitive inhibitor of mps1 kinase with the ic50 value of 145nm [1].mps1-in-2 has been reported to inhibit mps1 kinase activity with the ic50 value of 145nm, when screened at 1μm atp. in addition, mps1-in-2 has shown greater than 1000-fold selectivity to the alk and ltk enzyme. moreover, mps1-in-2 has been revealed to bound to the atp biding pocket of mpa1 and formed a hydrogen bond with the hinge backbone (glu603) at 2.74-å resolution. mps1-in-2 has been noted to abrogate sac function and override the checkpoint through direct inhibition of mps1[1].
