pad2 in 1

PAD2-IN-1, a benzimidazole-based derivative, is an efficacious and specific inhibitor of protein arginine deiminase 2 (PAD2). Demonstrating remarkable selectivity, PAD2-IN-1 exhibits a 95-fold higher affinity for PAD2 in comparison to PAD4 and a 79-fold higher affinity than PAD3.

PAD2-IN-1 hydrochloride 是有效的、选择性的蛋白精氨酸脱亚氨酶 2 (PAD2) 抑制剂，且对 PAD2 的选择性优于 PAD4 (95 倍) 和 PAD3 (79 倍)，是一种基于苯并咪唑的衍生物。

PAD2-IN-2 (cis-isomer of 1) TFA 为蛋白质精氨酸脱亚胺酶 2 (PAD2) 的抑制剂，拥有偶氮苯光开关，可光学调控 PAD 活性。PAD2-IN-2 TFA 能抑制组蛋白 H3-瓜氨酸化。

Photoswitchable PAD inhibitor is a photoactivated protein arginine deiminase (PAD) inhibitor and a derivative of BB-Cl-amidine that contains an azobenzene photoswitch allowing optical control of PAD activity.1 Without photoactivation, it is a weak inhibitor of PAD2 (IC50 = >100 μM) and is less potent than BB-Cl-amidine in inhibiting citrulline production in vitro (kinact KIs = 2,300, 600, 1,000, and 10,510 M-1min-1 for PAD1-4, respectively) and does not inhibit histone H3 citrullination in HEK293T cells overexpressing PAD2 when used at concentrations up to 100 μM. However, it can rapidly be photoactivated with UV-A radiation to the more active cis-isomer, which is an irreversible, competitive inhibitor of histone H3 citrullination with an IC50 value of 9.1 μM.References1.

YW3-56 is an inhibitor of protein arginine deiminase 2 (PAD2) and PAD4 (IC50s = 0.5-1 and 1-5 μM, respectively).1It inhibits the growth of U2OS osteosarcoma cells (IC50= ~2.5 μM) in a p53-dependent mannerviainduction of SESN2 and subsequent inhibition of mTORC1. YW3-56 (10 mg kg) reduces tumor growth in an S-180 murine sarcoma tumor model. It also inhibits tumor growth in the 1883 MDA-MB-231 breast cancer bone metastasis mouse xenograft model.2 1.Wang, Y., Li, P., Wang, S., et al.Anticancer peptidylarginine deiminase (PAD) inhibitors regulate the autophagy flux and the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 activityThe Journal of Biological Chemisty287(31)25941-25952(2012) 2.Wang, S., Chen, X.A., Hu, J., et al.ATF4 gene network mediates cellular response to the anticancer PAD inhibitor YW3-56 in triple-negative breast cancer cellsMol.
