| Targets |
As the inactive isomer, (R,S,S,R,S)-Boc-Dap-NE does not have a traditional biological target but is used as a negative control. The parent compound Boc-Dap-NE is an intermediate for MMAE, which targets tubulin. MMAE binds to the vinca alkaloid binding site on beta-tubulin, inhibiting tubulin polymerization, disrupting microtubule dynamics, and causing G2/M cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
As a non-active isomer, (R,S,S,R,S)-Boc-Dap-NE shows no direct biological activity. The active parent compound MMAE (Monomethyl auristatin E) inhibits tubulin polymerization with IC50 values in the low nanomolar range. MMAE causes mitotic block and cell death in various cancer cell lines with sub-nanomolar to low nanomolar cytotoxic potencies. This inactive isomer serves as a negative control to validate target-specific effects.
|
| ln Vivo |
No in vivo activity data is available for (R,S,S,R,S)-Boc-Dap-NE itself. The active payload MMAE demonstrates potent antitumor activity in xenograft mouse models, and ADCs utilizing MMAE have shown significant tumor growth inhibition in multiple preclinical models, leading to FDA approval for clinical use in hematologic malignancies like Hodgkin lymphoma and anaplastic large cell lymphoma.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The parent active compound Boc-Dap-NE is used in peptide coupling reactions for MMAE synthesis. For tubulin polymerization assays, purified tubulin is incubated with GTP and varying concentrations of test compound at 37degC. Polymerization is monitored spectrophotometrically at 340 nm for 30-60 minutes. MMAE inhibits polymerization with IC50 values of 1-5 nM. For binding studies, [3H]-vincristine is used to competitively displace MMAE from tubulin.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cell viability assays are performed in 96-well plates using various cancer cell lines (e.g., HeLa, A549, MCF-7, HCT116, HL-60). Cells are treated with serial dilutions of active MMAE or the inactive isomer as control for 48-96 hours. Cell viability is measured using MTT, CCK-8, or CellTiter-Glo assays. IC50 values for MMAE typically range from 0.1-10 nM depending on cell line, while the inactive isomer shows no cytotoxicity.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For the parent active compound MMAE, in vivo efficacy is evaluated in subcutaneous xenograft models. Immunodeficient mice bearing established tumors (e.g., xenografted human lymphoma or carcinoma cells) are treated intravenously with MMAE (1-5 mg/kg) on a Q4D x 3 schedule. Tumor volumes are measured by calipers twice weekly, and body weight is monitored for toxicity. MMAE typically produces tumor growth inhibition (TGI) >80% or frank regression at efficacious doses.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
As an inactive isomer, pharmacokinetic data for (R,S,S,R,S)-Boc-Dap-NE is not publicly available. For the parent MMAE, typical PK parameters in rodents include moderate plasma clearance (CL = 10-30 mL/min/kg), moderate volume of distribution (Vd = 1-3 L/kg), and terminal half-life (t1/2 = 2-6 hours). As a peptide-based toxin, MMAE has low oral bioavailability and is typically administered intravenously. It is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4 in the liver.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The inactive isomer is non-toxic at the concentrations used for control experiments. For the active parent compounds Boc-Dap-NE and MMAE, toxicology studies have been conducted as part of ADC development. MMAE-related toxicities include bone marrow suppression (neutropenia, thrombocytopenia), peripheral neuropathy, and gastrointestinal effects. The inactive isomer is not intended for therapeutic use and no systematic toxicology data is available.

| Additional Infomation |
(R,S,S,R,S)-Boc-Dap-NE is a research-grade chemical used exclusively as a negative control in ADC drug development. Boc-Dap-NE (as an intermediate) and MMAE (as the active payload) are critical components of FDA-approved ADCs, including brentuximab vedotin (Adcetris®), which was first approved in 2011 for Hodgkin lymphoma and anaplastic large cell lymphoma. The inactive isomer helps validate target-specific effects in research settings.
