DOCK

Dedicator of cytokinesis

Dedicator of cytokinesis (DOCK) proteins constitute a family of evolutionarily conserved guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) for the Rho family of GTPases. Although DOCK family proteins do not contain the Dbl homology domain typically found in other GEFs, they mediate the GTP-GDP exchange reaction through the DOCK homology region-2 (DHR-2) domain. In mammals, this family consists of 11 members, each of which has unique functions depending on the expression pattern and the substrate specificity. For example, DOCK2 is a Rac activator critical for migration and activation of leukocytes, whereas DOCK8 is a Cdc42-specific GEF that regulates interstitial migration of dendritic cells. Identification of DOCK2 and DOCK8 as causative genes for severe combined immunodeficiency syndromes in humans has highlighted their roles in immune surveillance. In addition, the recent discovery of a naturally occurring DOCK2-inhibitory metabolite has uncovered an unexpected mechanism of tissue-specific immune evasion. On the other hand, GEF-independent functions have been shown for DOCK8 in antigen-induced IL-31 production in helper T cells.

    Cholesteryl sulfate sodium
    Inhibitor 99.86%
    Cholesterol sulfate sodium is a naturally occurring, orally active cholesterol derivative that is widely distributed in various tissues and body fluids. Cholesterol sulfate sodium acts as a DOCK2 inhibitor, with IC50 values of 2 μM and 2.9 μM against mouse and human targets, respectively. Cholesterol sulfate sodium restricts excessive neutrophil infiltration and alleviates intestinal inflammation and damage. Cholesterol sulfate sodium serves as an activator of protein kinase C (PKC), which promotes squamous cell differentiation and inhibits skin carcinogenesis. Cholesterol sulfate sodium regulates cholesterol homeostasis and cellular metabolism by activating the AMPK-Sirt1 pathway. Cholesterol sulfate sodium can be used in research related to actinic keratitis, ulcerative colitis, skin cancer, and other conditions.

    DOCK2-IN-1
    Inhibitor 99.37%
    DOCK2-IN-1 (Compound 3) is an analog of CPYPP (HY-110100) and a DOCK2 inhibitor (IC50 = 19.1 μM). DOCK2-IN-1 binds to the DHR-2 domain of DOCK2 and inhibits its mediated Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor activity. DOCK2-IN-1 blocks chemokine receptor- and antigen receptor-mediated activation of Rac in lymphocytes. DOCK2-IN-1 significantly inhibits chemotaxis and T cell activation. DOCK2-IN-1 can be used in the research of transplant rejection and organ-specific autoimmune diseases.
