In Vitro

YJZ5118 is a potent, selective inhibitor of recombinant CDK12/Cyclin K and CDK13/Cyclin K with IC50 values of 39.5 nM and 26.4 nM, respectively, and over 100-fold selectivity relative to most other CDK family members[1].
YJZ5118 (0.1 μM; 2 h) acts as an irreversible inhibitor in VCaP prostate cancer cells, maintaining suppression of RNA polymerase II Ser2 phosphorylation, DDR gene expression, and antiproliferative activity after compound washout[1].
YJZ5118 (5 days) potently inhibits VCaP prostate cancer cell proliferation with an IC50 of 23.7 nM, and shows preferential activity against multiple cancer cell lines including prostate, breast, and Ewing's sarcoma cells, while normal/non-neoplastic cells are less sensitive[1].
YJZ5118 (20-100 nM; 1-48 h) inhibits RNA polymerase II Ser2 phosphorylation, suppresses transcription of long DDR genes, induces DNA damage, and triggers apoptosis in VCaP prostate cancer cells at concentrations as low as 100 nM[1].
YJZ5118 (10-100 nM; 24 h) dose-dependently activates the Akt pathway in VCaP prostate cancer cells, and exhibits synergistic antiproliferative effects with multiple Akt inhibitors in 22RV1 prostate cancer cells[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
