Product Description
JQ1-TCO (JQ1-trans-cycloctene) is a derivative of the BET inhibitor JQ1. JQ1-TCO is suitable for click chemistry and can be used as a molecular probe in vitro and in vivo.
(Z)-JQ1-TCO (JQ1‑trans‑cyclooctene) is a derivative of the potent BET (bromodomain and extra‑terminal) inhibitor JQ1, modified to incorporate a trans‑cyclooctene (TCO) group. It is designed for click chemistry applications, specifically for use in in vitro and in vivo bioorthogonal labeling and conjugation studies.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
BRD4
BET family bromodomains (BRD2, BRD3, BRD4). The parent compound JQ1 is a high‑affinity BET inhibitor.
ln Vitro
JQ1-TCO (10 μM; 18 h) does not induce significant degradation of BRD4 in HeLa cells [1].
This entry is not available. The activity of (Z)‑JQ1‑TCO is mediated through the JQ1 moiety, which retains BET bromodomain binding affinity. As a general principle for JQ1 derivatives, they bind to BRD4 with low nanomolar affinity. The presence of the TCO handle allows the compound to undergo rapid and specific inverse electron‑demand Diels‑Alder (IEDDA) cycloaddition with tetrazine‑tagged molecules for imaging or delivery applications.
ln Vivo
This entry is not available.
Enzyme Assay
General cell‑free protocol for assessing BET binding of (Z)‑JQ1‑TCO: Use a TR‑FRET (LANCE Ultra) assay. Recombinant BRD4(BD1) protein (1‑5 nM) is incubated with a biotinylated acetylated histone H4 peptide (50‑100 nM) in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 0.01% Tween‑20, 1 mM DTT). Add varying concentrations of (Z)‑JQ1‑TCO (0.1 nM to 10 uM). Add Eu‑labeled anti‑GST antibody (1 nM) and streptavidin‑XL665 (20 nM). After 1 hour at room temperature, measure FRET signal at 665 nm (donor) and 620 nm (acceptor). Calculate IC₅0 from the competition curve.
Cell Assay
General cellular protocol for (Z)‑JQ1‑TCO click chemistry applications: Seed cells (e.g., HeLa or MV4‑11) in 6‑well plates. Treat cells with (Z)‑JQ1‑TCO at 0.1‑10 uM for 2‑4 hours to allow BET binding. Remove unbound compound by washing. Add tetrazine‑labeled fluorophore (e.g., tetrazine‑Cy5) at 10‑50 uM for 10‑30 minutes at 37degC. The IEDDA reaction between TCO and tetrazine results in covalent conjugation. Analyze labeled proteins by SDS‑PAGE and in‑gel fluorescence scanning, or visualize live cell labeling by confocal microscopy.
Animal Protocol
General animal protocol for (Z)‑JQ1‑TCO in vivo click chemistry: Administer (Z)‑JQ1‑TCO to mice via intravenous or intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 10‑50 mg/kg. Allow the compound to distribute and bind to BET proteins in tissues (1‑4 hours). Subsequently, inject a tetrazine‑labeled imaging agent (e.g., tetrazine‑IRDye 800CW) intravenously. After 30‑60 minutes, perform whole‑body fluorescence imaging to visualize BET protein distribution. For targeted delivery, pre‑label therapeutic nanoparticles with tetrazine, then inject (Z)‑JQ1‑TCO to direct nanoparticle accumulation at sites of BET protein expression.

Additional Infomation
(Z)‑JQ1‑TCO has a molecular formula of C31H3₇ClN₆O3S and a molecular weight of 609.18. It is stored as a powder at ‑20degC. The TCO group enables bioorthogonal click chemistry, allowing researchers to conjugate the BET inhibitor to various probes without interfering with cellular processes. This makes (Z)‑JQ1‑TCO a valuable molecular tool for studying BET protein dynamics, target engagement, and drug delivery in live cells and animals.
