Product Description
Zelpolib is a non-competitive Pol δ inhibitor. Zelpolib exhibits significant inhibitory activity against dTTP-mediated DNA polymerase δ activity, with a Ki of 4.3 μM. Zelpolib inhibits cellular DNA replication and possesses anti-proliferative properties.
Zelpolib (CAS# 701932-26-5) is a novel DNA polymerase delta (Pol delta) inhibitor (molecular formula C22H21N3O5S2, MW ~471.6 g/mol). It is a non-competitive inhibitor (Ki = 4.3 microM with respect to dTTP) that inhibits DNA replication and homologous recombination repair.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Specifically targets DNA polymerase delta (Pol delta), a key enzyme in DNA replication and repair. Inhibition disrupts replication fork progression and impairs homologous recombination repair (HRR), leading to accumulation of DNA damage and cell death, particularly in cancer cells with high replication demand or defective DNA repair.
ln Vitro
Shows antiproliferative activity in triple-negative breast cancer cell lines (e.g., MDA-MB-231), pancreatic cancer cell lines (PANC-1, MIA PaCa-2), and platinum-resistant pancreatic cancer lines. Inhibits cellular DNA replication (assessed by DNA fiber fluorography). IC₅0 for Pol delta inhibition in enzyme assay is in low micromolar range.
ln Vivo
No published in vivo data for Zelpolib. As a Pol delta inhibitor with demonstrated in vitro activity, it is expected to show anti-tumor efficacy in xenograft mouse models of triple-negative breast cancer and pancreatic cancer upon systemic administration (IP or PO).
Enzyme Assay
In vitro Pol delta enzyme assay: Purified human Pol delta holoenzyme (p125, p66, p50, p12 subunits) is incubated in reaction buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 50 mM KCl, 0.1 mg/mL BSA) with primed DNA template and [3H]-dTTP. Zelpolib added (0.1-100 microM). Reaction at 37degC for 30 min, terminated with EDTA. Incorporated radioactivity counted. Ki determined by Dixon plot.
Cell Assay
Cytotoxicity assay: Cancer cells (MDA-MB-231 or MIA PaCa-2) seeded in 96-well plates (5,000-10,000/well) overnight. Zelpolib serially diluted (0.01-100 microM) added for 48-72 h. CellTiter-Glo used. IC₅0 calculated. For DNA fiber assay: cells pulsed with CldU (20 min), then IdU (20 min) +/- compound; fibers spread on slides, stained, replication fork speed measured.
Animal Protocol
Xenograft protocol: Female athymic nude mice (6-8 wk) inoculated subcutaneously with 5×10⁶ cancer cells (MDA-MB-231 or MIA PaCa-2) in Matrigel. When tumors reach 100-150 mm3, mice randomized (n=6-10/group). Zelpolib formulated in 5% DMSO/30% PEG300/5% Tween 80/60% saline, administered IP or PO (10-100 mg/kg) q.d. or q.o.d. for 2-4 wk. Tumor volume measured every 2-3 days.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Limited PK data. Soluble in DMSO and water. As a small molecule non-competitive Pol delta inhibitor (Ki 4.3 microM), likely has moderate oral bioavailability. No specific Cmax, AUC, t1/2 reported. Further optimization expected.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No published toxicology. Potential off-target effects may include bone marrow suppression, GI toxicity due to inhibition of DNA replication in rapidly dividing cells. Preclinical assessments would include acute and repeated dose toxicity, genotoxicity (Ames, micronucleus). Research use only, not for human therapy.

  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
