General description

A cell-permeable benzamide compound that acts as a non-competitive, highly potent, selective MEK/MAPKK/MKK inhibitor and effectively blocks cellular Erk1/2 phosphorylation (by >90% in serum-starved HeLa after serum-stimulation and 50% in C26 with 25 and 0.33 nM inhibitor, respectively), while exhibiting little or no effect against the activity of Erk1/2 or a panel of 66 other kinases even at concentrations as high as 10 µM in cell-free kinase assays. Shown to be orally available in mice and suppress both the growth of and Erk phosphorylation in BRAF(V600E)-expressing SKMEL28 cell-derived tumor in vivo.

R-loops are three-stranded nucleic acid structures with essential roles in many nuclear processes. However, their unchecked accumulation is associated with genome instability and is observed in neurodevelopmental diseases and cancers.

The Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) is an essential epigenetic regulator that deposits repressive H3K27me3. PRC2 subunits form two holocomplexes-PRC2.1 and PRC2.2-but the roles of these two PRC2 assemblies during differentiation are unclear. We employed auxin-inducible degradation to deplete PRC2.1
