(5-Phenyl-2-ureido)thiophene-3-carboxamide

Inhibitor of NF-κB kinase 2 (IKK2, also known as IKKβ) acts as part of an IKK complex in the canonical NF-κB pathway, phosphorylating inhibitors of NF-κB (IκBs) to initiate signaling. NF-κB signaling can also occur through a non-canonical, IKK/IκB-independent pathway. IKK2 Inhibitor VI is a potent, cell-permeable, reversible inhibitor of IKK2 (IC₅₀ = 13 nM). It is used to evaluate the role of the canonical, IκB-dependent NF-κB signaling pathway in cellular responses.
