DNA damage checkpoint and the spindle checkpoint are two cell cycle surveillance systems, which guard against genomic instability. The DNA damage checkpoint kinases CHK1 and CHK2 are central to the induction of cell cycle arrest, DNA repair, and apoptosis as elements in the DNA-damage checkpoint. The components of the spindle checkpoint include Mad1, Mad2, Mad3(BubR1), Bub3 and the kinases Bub1, Mph1(Mps1) and Aurora B.

Cells that suffer DNA damage activate the checkpoint kinases CHK1 and CHK2, which signal to initiate repair processes, limit cell-cycle progression and prevent cell replication, until the damaged DNA is repaired.

The spindle checkpoint causes metaphase arrest when kinetochore-microtubules are unattached during mitosis. The SAC consists of ‘sensor’ proteins, such as Mad1, Bub1 and Mps1; a ‘signal transducer’, consisting of the mitotic checkpoint complex, composed of Mad2, Bub3, BubR1 and Cdc20; and an ‘effector’ known as the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C).

  • HY-N18301
    Americanin A
    		Activator
    Americanin A is a Neolignan. Americanin A can be isolated from the seeds of Phytolacca americana. Americanin A activates ATM and ATR, initiating the subsequent signal transduction cascades that include Chk1, Chk2, and tumor suppressor p53. Americanin A targets selectively Skp2 for degradation and thereby stabilizes p27. Americanin A suppresses the activity of Cyclin B1 and its partner cdc2 to prevent entry into Mitosis. Americanin A induces Apoptosis by producing excessive ROS. Americanin A has anti-cancer activity against colorectal cancer.

  • HY-164523
    PV1162
    		Inhibitor
    PV1162 is a selective Chk2 inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.29 nM. PV1162 inhibits ATP binding to Chk2 by targeting the gatekeeper-dependent hydrophobic pocket, which is specific to Chk2 and located behind the ATP-binding site (adenine-binding region), thereby inhibiting the phosphorylation activity of Chk2. PV1162 holds potential application value in the field of cancer therapy.
