Biochem/physiol Actions

Cell-permeable N,N′-bis(acyloxymethyl carbamate) prodrug of the anaphase-promoting complex (APC) inhibitor Nα-p-Tosyl-L-arginine methyl ester (TAME).
proTAME is a cell-permeable N,N′-bis(acyloxymethyl carbamate) prodrug of the anaphase-promoting complex (APC) inhibitor Nα-p-Tosyl-L-arginine methyl ester (TAME). Upon entering cells, proTAME (12 μM) is effectively converted by cellular esterases to TAME, which in turn inactivates the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) by blocking APC-dependent proteolysis, causing prolonged mitotic duration at low doses (780 nM - 3 μM in HeLa cells, 6 μM in hTERT-RPE1 cells) or mitotic arrest and cell death at high doses (12 μM in HeLa cells). Note: proTAME is not active in some cells (e.g. MCF10A, due to the lack of esterase activity required for proTAME activation.
