GDC-0623
GDC-0623 is a potent and ATP-uncompetitive inhibitor of MEK1 with Ki value of 0.13nM [1].
GDC-0623 is an allosteric MEK inhibitor and has efficacy against both mutant BRAF and mutant KRAS. In the cell viability assays, GDC-0623 inhibits BRAF (V600E) and KRAS (G13D) with EC50 values of 7nM and 42nM, respectively in A375 cells and HCT116 cells. Besides that, GDC-0623 shows similar efficacy in the two genotypes in a panel of BRAF and KRAS-mutant cancer cell lines. GDC-0623 is found to prevent MEK phosphorylation in cells, resulting in more effective inhibition of pERK. Furthermore, it is found that GDC-0623 blocks RAF activation through the effect on MEK. It induces dimerization of MEK with both BRAF and CRAF and stabilizes the RAF–MEK complex. In addition, GDC-0623 also suppresses RAF activation via inhibiting the formation of BRAF–CRAF heterodimer and the translocation of RAF in plasma membrane [1].

| Kinase experiment [1]: | |
|
In vitro Kinase assays |
0.14 μM of purified inactive recombinant MEK-1 protein is preincubated with inhibitors in 15 μL of kinase buffer including (20 mM MOPS pH7.2, 25 mM beta glycerol phosphate, 5 mM EGTA, 1 mM sodium orthovanadate, 1 mM DTT, 100 μM ATP, 15 mM MgCl2). After incubating 10 minutes at 30°C, 1 ng of BRAF, CRAF or BRAF V600E combined with 0.5 μg of inactive recombinant ERK2 is added to the reaction in total volume of 20 μL. After incubating 30 minutes at 30°C the reaction is stopped by adding Laemmle sample buffer. Enzyme activity is measured by determining level of phosphor-MEK by SDS-PAGE. Immunoreactive proteins are visualized with SuperSignal West Pico Chemiluminescent Substrate. |

|
Other notes |
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal. |
