CLK-IN-T3 is a novel, potent and highly selective CLK (CDC-like kinase) inhibitor with high specificity to CLK1-3 protein isoforms and with IC50s of 0.67 nM, 15 nM, and 110 nM for CLK1, CLK2, and CLK3 protein kinases, respectively. CLK-IN-T3 has anti-cancer activity.
| Targets |
CLK1 (IC50 = 0.67 nM); CLK2 (IC50 = 15 nM); CLK3 (IC50 = 110 nM); DYRK1A (IC50 = 260 nM); DYRK1B (IC50 = 230 nM)
CDC-like kinase 1 (CLK1, IC50 = 0.67 nM), CDC-like kinase 2 (CLK2, IC50 = 15 nM), CDC-like kinase 3 (CLK3, IC50 = 110 nM) DYRK1A and DYRK1B (inhibition approximately 200–300 times weaker than CLK isoforms)[1] |

| ln Vitro |
CLK-IN-T3 suppresses the activity of DYRK1A (IC50=260 nM) and DYRK1B (IC50=230 nM).[1]
CLK-IN-T3 (0.1-10.0 µM; 24 hours) results in a long-lasting (24 hours) mild cell cycle arrest at the G2/M boundary[1]. CLK-IN-T3 (0.5-1.0 µM; 6 hours) reduces the phosphorylation of SR proteins that are targeted by CLK, while CLK proteins slightly increase[1]. CLK-IN-T3 inhibits CLK1, CLK2, and CLK3 with IC50 values of 0.67 nM, 15 nM, and 110 nM, respectively, in enzymatic assays. In cell-based assays, short-term exposure (6 h) to CLK-IN-T3 does not cause cytotoxicity or apoptosis even at high concentrations. Long-term exposure (>24 h) results in mild cell cycle arrest at the G2/M boundary. CLK-IN-T3 reduces phosphorylation of SRSF1, SRSF4, and SRSF6, which are canonical CLK targets in exon recognition. RNA-Seq analysis shows that CLK-IN-T3 induces dose-dependent alternative splicing events, primarily skipped exons (SE) and retained introns (RI), in HCT116 and 184hTERT cells. CLK-IN-T3 also promotes dose-dependent formation of conjoined gene (CG) transcripts through splicing between adjacent genes on the same strand. siRNA knockdown of CLK2-associated genes (e.g., SRRM1/2, SRSF proteins) increases CG formation, supporting the role of CLK in suppressing CG transcription.[1] |
| Enzyme Assay |
Kinase assays for CLK1-3, DYRK1A, and DYRK1B were performed using a luminescence-based kinase assay system.
The kinase buffer contained HEPES (pH 7.5), magnesium acetate, DTT, BSA, and Tween-20. Reaction mixtures contained specific concentrations of each kinase and a peptide substrate labeled with a fluorescent donor. After incubating the enzyme, peptide, and compound for 10 minutes, ATP was added to initiate the reaction, followed by incubation for 45 minutes. Reactions were terminated with EDTA, and phosphorylated substrates were detected using Europium-labeled antibodies against phosphorylated peptides. Fluorescence signals were measured, and IC50 values were calculated using curve-fitting software.[1] |
| Cell Assay |
Cell Line: HCT-116 cells
Concentration: 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 5.0, 10.0 µM Incubation Time: 24 hours Result: Resulted in mild cell cycle arrest at the G2/M boundary with long-duration (24 h). HCT116 (colorectal cancer) and 184hTERT (immortalized mammary epithelial) cells were cultured under mycoplasma-free conditions. For splicing analysis, cells were treated with increasing concentrations of CLK-IN-T3 for 6 hours to avoid cytotoxicity or cell cycle effects. Total RNA was extracted and used for strand-specific or non-stranded RNA-Seq library preparation. Libraries were sequenced on an Illumina platform, and reads were aligned to the human reference genome. Alternative splicing events were quantified using MISO and VAST-tools. For validation of conjoined genes, targeted PCR sequencing and PacBio long-read sequencing were performed. For siRNA experiments, HCT116 cells were transfected with siRNAs targeting CLK family members or motif-enriched factors using lipid-based transfection reagents. Knockdown efficiency was assessed by qPCR, and effects on CG formation were evaluated by targeted RNA-Seq of a panel of CG events.[1] |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
CLK-IN-T3 exhibited good cell permeability and stability in the culture medium (Supplementary Table 3). [1]
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Short-term (6 hours) exposure to CLK-IN-T3 did not induce cytotoxicity or apoptosis, even at high concentrations. Long-term exposure (>24 hours) caused slight cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase, but no significant cytotoxicity was observed within the tested concentration range.

| Additional Infomation |
CLK-IN-T3 is a novel, highly potent, and selective small molecule inhibitor of CLK1-3, with a structure drastically different from previous inhibitors such as KH-CB19. Compared to KH-CB19, CLK-IN-T3 exhibits approximately two orders of magnitude higher potency and selectivity for CLK subtypes. CLK-IN-T3 regulates RNA splicing by dose-dependently promoting exon skipping and intron retention. Surprisingly, it induces co-gene transcription by influencing 3' end processing and splicing factor activity. Based on previous studies of other CLK inhibitors [1], this compound may have therapeutic potential for cancers with dysregulated CLK activity, such as breast cancer (CLK2) and renal cell carcinoma (CLK1).

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
