Product Description

RI-1 (also known as RAD51 inhibitor 1) is an irreversible small molecule inhibitor of RAD51 with IC50 ranging from 5 to 30 μM. Through direct and specific disruption of HsRAD51 and inhibition of RAD51's ability to form filaments on ssDNA, RI-1 sensitizes cells to DNA damage. Furthermore, all three cancer cell lines (HeLa, MCF-7, and U2OS) exhibit single-agent toxicity when exposed to RI-1 alone, with LD50 values in the 20–40 µM range. In G2 phase cells, RI-1 inhibits the rejoining of γ-H2AX foci, leading to an increased amount of unrepaired double-strand breaks six hours post-irradiation.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
RAD51 ( IC50 = 5-30 μM )
ln Vitro

RI-1 (1-50 μM; 24 h) specifically promotes single-strand annealing (SSA) in HEK293 cells and inhibits homologous recombination (HR) in U2OS cells[1].
RI-1 (5-20 μM; 30 min) inhibits HsRAD51 in a concentration-dependent manner[1].
RI-1 (20 μM; 8 h) prevents the creation of RAD51 foci following DNA damage in immortalized human fibroblasts[1].
RI-1 (15-25 μM; 24 h) sensitizes HeLa, MCF-7, and U2OS human cancer cells to chemotherapy that involves cross-linking[1].

ln Vivo
RI-1 (50 mg/kg; i.p. every 3 d for 30 d) dramatically slows the growth of tumors associated with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) in mice[2].
Enzyme Assay
Reaction volumes range from 30 to 100 μL, and all reactions are carried out in 384-well black non-binding polystyrene plates. Purified chemical compounds and DNA strand exchange proteins are first incubated for five minutes at room temperature. They are then incubated for a further thirty minutes at 37°C with 100 nM of ssDNA substrate, which is a 45-mer poly-dT tagged with Alexa 488 at the 5' terminus (purified and synthesized by Integrated DNA Technologies). 20 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.25 μM BSA, 2% glycerol, 30 mM NaCl, 4% DMSO, and 2 mM ATP are used for the reactions. DTT or TCEP (tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine) were among the conditions mentioned. The Safire2 plate reader is used to measure DNA binding as a function of fluorescence polarization (FP). The following settings are used: excitation 470±5 nm, emission 530±5 nm, 10 reads/well, Z height, and G factor auto-calibrated from control wells. Error bars that are displayed stand for standard deviation. Data are fitted to an equation that takes into account the cooperative nature of recombinase protein DNA binding in experiments involving the titration of protein concentrations. Protein concentrations are chosen for RI-1 titration experiments such that the FP signal reaches approximately 80% saturation when RI-1 is not present.
Cell Assay
The ability to form colonies is the key indicator of cytotoxicity. Three duplicates of each experiment are run. NIH Image software is utilized to count colonies that have been stained with crystal violet and imaged using a CCD camera. Normal error is indicated by error bars.
Animal Protocol
Female BALB/c nude mice (6 weeks) bearing TNBC tumor
50 mg/kg
I.p. every 3 days for 30 days

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: 33.3~50 mg/mL (92.2~138.3 mM)
Water: <1 mg/mL
Ethanol: <1 mg/mL
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.91 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 2.7654 mL 13.8271 mL 27.6541 mL
5 mM 0.5531 mL 2.7654 mL 5.5308 mL
10 mM 0.2765 mL 1.3827 mL 2.7654 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

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)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
