CRT0044876 is a potent and selective inhibitor of APE1 with IC50 value of 3.06 μM [1].
Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease-1 (APE1) is a member of the highly conserved exonuclease
III family of AP endonucleases and plays an important role in DNA repair. APE1 exhibits 3’-phosphodiesterase activity and weak 3’-phosphatase activity, 3’-5’-exonuclease activity and RNaseH activity [1].
CRT0044876 is a potent and selective APE1 inhibitor. In HeLa whole cell extract, CRT0044876 inhibited apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site cleavage catalyzed by APE1. CRT0044876 inhibited both the AP endonuclease and exonuclease activities of exonuclease III, the bacterial homologue of APE1. CRT0044876 inhibited the 3’-phosphoglycolate diesterase activity of APE1 with IC50 value of 5 μM and also inhibited 3’-phosphatase activity through binding to DNA repair active site of APE1. In HT1080 fibrosarcoma cells, CRT0044876 significantly increased AP site accumulation and was non-toxic at concentrations up to 400 μM. Also, CRT0044876 potentiated the cytotoxicity induced by alkylating agent MMS, temozolomide, hydrogen peroxide and hmdUrd through specific inhibition of the base excision repair (BER) pathway [1].

Kinase experiment [1]: | |
AP site cleavage assay |
BER reaction buffer comprised 40 mM HEPES-KOH (pH 7.8), 5 mM MgCl2, 0.5 mM DTT and 0.1 mM EDTA. A 10 μL AP site cleavage reaction comprised of BER buffer mix, purified protein (3.3 nM final concentration of APE1) and 0.75 ng reduced AP site double-stranded oligonucleotide. The mixture was incubated at 37 °C for 1 hr. A total of 1 μL of stop buffer (50% glycerol, 10 mM Tris–HCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1% bromophenol blue and 0.1% Xylene cyanol) was added, and the sample mixture was denatured at 90 ~ 100 °C for 2 mins. The sample was then loaded on a 15% TBE Criterion Pre-Cast Gel, with electrophoresis at a constant current of 30 mA for 30 mins, and the radiolabeled substrate and reaction products were visualized using a phosphorImager. The inhibitory activity of potential APE1-targeting compounds was analyzed at drug concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 100 μM. The resolved radiolabeled bands were quantified using ImageQuant software analysis, and IC50 values were calculated. |

Applications |
In Human HT1080 fibrosarcoma cells, CRT0044876 significantly increased apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site accumulation. HT1080 cells treated with methylmethane sulfonate (MMS) also elevated the level of AP sites. The combination of CRT0044876 and MMS caused a synergistic increase in the level of AP sites. |
