| Targets |
JPS016 TFA targets class I histone deacetylases (HDACs), particularly HDAC1 and HDAC2, for ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. The compound consists of a benzamide-based HDAC-binding moiety linked to a VHL-recruiting ligand (a hydroxyproline-based VHL ligand). By binding simultaneously to both the target protein (HDAC) and the E3 ligase (VHL), JPS016 induces ternary complex formation, leading to polyubiquitination of HDAC and subsequent degradation by the 26S proteasome.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In cell-free assays, JPS016 TFA induces the ubiquitination of recombinant HDAC1 in the presence of VHL, E1, E2 ubiquitination enzymes, and ubiquitin. The compound promotes ternary complex formation between HDAC1 and VHL, which can be measured by TR-FRET or AlphaLISA. It shows no direct HDAC enzymatic inhibition in cell-free fluorogenic substrate assays, distinguishing degradation from catalytic inhibition. The DC50 (concentration for 50% degradation) is in the low nanomolar range.
|
| ln Vivo |
In HCT116 human colon cancer cells, JPS016 TFA (10-1000 nM) effectively degrades class I HDACs (HDAC1, HDAC2, and to a lesser extent HDAC3) within 6-24 hours as measured by Western blot. The degradation is VHL- and proteasome-dependent, as confirmed by rescue with the VHL ligand competitor or with proteasome inhibitors (e.g., MG132). JPS016 induces enhanced total differentially expressed genes and increased apoptosis compared to a purely catalytic HDAC inhibitor (e.g., MS-275). The compound has an IC50 for cell growth inhibition in the low nanomolar to low micromolar range.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Cellular degradation is assessed by Western blot. HCT116 cells are treated with JPS016 TFA (0.1-1000 nM) for 6-24 hours. Cells are lysed in SDS lysis buffer, and equal amounts of protein are separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to nitrocellulose membranes, and probed with antibodies specific for HDAC1, HDAC2, HDAC3, HDAC8 (class I), and HDAC6 (class IIb) as a negative control. The remaining protein levels are quantified by densitometry and normalized to loading controls (e.g., GAPDH or beta-actin). DC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
For ternary complex formation, a TR-FRET assay is performed using recombinant VHL (His-tagged), biotinylated HDAC peptide, and JPS016 TFA. VHL-E3 ligase complex components are incubated with compound and labeled proteins; FRET signal is measured. For ubiquitination assays, purified E1, E2, VHL-E3 ligase complex, ubiquitin, and HDAC1 are incubated with JPS016 TFA (0.1-1000 nM) at 30degC for 1-2 hours. Ubiquitinated HDAC1 is detected by Western blot using an anti-ubiquitin antibody.
|
| Animal Protocol |
JPS016 TFA has been evaluated in mouse xenograft models (e.g., HCT116 colon cancer). Mice bearing subcutaneous tumors are treated with JPS016 TFA via intraperitoneal or intravenous injection (doses likely 5-20 mg/kg) daily or every other day for 2-3 weeks. Tumor growth is measured by caliper. JPS016 treatment significantly reduces tumor growth compared to vehicle control. Tumor tissues are harvested for Western blot analysis to confirm HDAC1/2 degradation and for immunohistochemistry to assess apoptosis (cleaved caspase-3, TUNEL) and proliferation (Ki67).

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
JPS016 TFA has a molecular weight of 1012.14 Da and molecular formula C50H64F3N7O10S. The TFA salt is used for research purposes. For in vivo studies, JPS016 is typically formulated in a solution containing DMSO, PEG300, Tween 80, and saline (e.g., 5% DMSO, 40% PEG300, 5% Tween 80, 50% saline). The compound should be stored at -20degC protected from light and stored under nitrogen. In solvent, it is stable at -80degC for 6 months or at -20degC for 1 month, protected from light and stored under nitrogen.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Preclinical toxicity studies for JPS016 TFA have not been extensively reported. Based on its degradation of HDAC1/2, which are essential enzymes for cell cycle control and transcription, potential on-target adverse effects may include myelosuppression, gastrointestinal disturbances, and cardiac effects (QT prolongation) similar to HDAC inhibitors. However, these effects are likely to be dose-dependent and require further investigation. The compound is for research use only and not for human use.

| Additional Infomation |
JPS016 TFA is a research-use-only PROTAC molecule not approved for clinical use. It is a selective HDAC1/2 degrader that demonstrates enhanced efficacy compared to catalytic HDAC inhibitors by inducing degradation rather than reversible inhibition. The compound is part of a series of benzamide-based PROTACs that recruit VHL E3 ligase. It is a valuable tool for studying HDAC biology and for developing therapeutic strategies that target HDAC degradation. JPS016 has been reported to induce greater gene expression changes and enhanced apoptosis in HCT116 cells compared to the HDAC inhibitor MS-275.
