IC50: 15 nM (DGKα)[1]
Diacylglycerol kinase alpha (DGKα). BMS-684 is a highly selective small-molecule inhibitor of DGKα with an IC50 of 15 nM. It demonstrates over 100-fold selectivity against other type I DGK isoforms such as DGKβ and DGKγ. DGKα is a lipid kinase that phosphorylates diacylglycerol (DAG) to phosphatidic acid (PA), regulating DAG-mediated signaling pathways involved in T cell activation and immune regulation. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
BMS-684 is a selective DGKα inhibitor with an IC50 of 15 nM. It inhibits DGKα kinase activity with >100-fold selectivity over the related DGK type I family members DGKβ and DGKγ. The compound activates T cells and has potential antitumor activity. Its immunostimulatory activity is enhanced compared to less selective inhibitors.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, BMS-684 has potential for preventing and treating immune-related diseases by activating T cells. Its potent and isoform-specific inhibition supports mechanistic studies and therapeutic exploration targeting DGKα. The compound is being investigated for cancer and immune regulation applications.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme activity assays for BMS-684 involve measuring its ability to inhibit DGKα kinase activity. Recombinant DGKα enzyme is incubated with diacylglycerol substrate in the presence of ATP and increasing concentrations of the compound. Kinase activity is measured by detecting the production of phosphatidic acid, and the IC50 is determined from dose-response curves (IC50 = 15 nM).
