Biochem/physiol Actions

Ispinesib (SB-715992) is a potent and highly selective kinesin spindle protein (KSP, KIF11, EG5) allosteric inhibtor that specifically inhibits microtubule (MT)-stimulated ATPase activity of KSP (Ki = 1.7 nM; 5 μM MT, 500 μM ATP, 0.75 nM human KSP), but not ubiquitous kinesin heavy chain KHC, neuronal kinesin KIF1A, or mitotic kinesins CENP-E, RabK6, MCAK, MKLP1. Ispinesib exhibits anti-cancer efficacy in cultures (GI50 = 45 nM/BT-474 & 19 nM/MDA-MB-468) and in cancer xenograft models in vivo (8 or 10 mg/kg q4d×3 ip. mice with MCF-7, HCC-1954, KPL4, BT-474 xenografts).

To uncover their contrasting mechanisms, antimitotic drugs that inhibit Eg5 (kinesin-5) were analyzed in mixed-motor gliding assays of kinesin-1 and Eg5 motors in which Eg5 "braking" dominates motility. Loop-5 inhibitors (monastrol, STLC, ispinesib, and filanesib) increased gliding speeds, consistent with

Ispinesib (SB-715992) is a potent inhibitor of kinesin spindle protein, a kinesin motor protein essential for the formation of a bipolar mitotic spindle and cell cycle progression through mitosis. Clinical studies of ispinesib have shown a 9% response rate in

Development of drug resistance during cancer chemotherapy is one of the major causes of chemotherapeutic failure for the majority of clinical agents. The aim of this study was to investigate the underlying molecular mechanism of resistance developed by the mitotic

Kinesins comprise a superfamily of molecular motors that drive a wide variety of cellular physiologies, from cytoplasmic transport to formation of the bipolar spindle in mitosis. These differing roles are reflected in corresponding polymorphisms in key kinesin structural elements. One

Unraveling the mechanism of action and molecular target of small molecules remains a major challenge in drug discovery. While many cancer drugs target genetic vulnerabilities, loss-of-function screens fail to identify essential genes in drug mechanism of action. Here, we report
