Product Description

STK16-IN-1 is a novel and highly selective ATP competitive inhibitor of STK16 kinase with an IC50 of 295 nM. STK16 is a serine/threonine protein kinase that is ubiquitously expressed and is conserved among all eukaryotes. STK16 has been implicated to function in a variety of cellular processes such as VEGF and cargo secretion, but the pathways through which these effects are mediated remain to be elucidated. STK16-IN-1 exhibits potent inhibitory activity against STK16 kinase (IC50: 0.295 μM) with excellent selectivity across the kinome as assessed using the KinomeScan profiling assay (S score (1) = 0.0). In MCF-7 cells, treatment with STK16-IN-1 results in a reduction in cell number and accumulation of binucleated cells, which can be recapitulated by RNAi knockdown of STK16. Co-treatment of STK16-IN-1 with chemotherapeutics such as cisplatin, doxorubicin, colchicine, and paclitaxel results in a slight potentiation of the antiproliferative effects of the chemotherapeutics. STK16-IN-1 provides a useful tool compound for further elucidating the biological functions of STK16.

Product Application
Overview
STK16-IN-1 is a research-grade, ATP-competitive small molecule inhibitor of serine/threonine protein kinase 16 (STK16). It is designed as a selective chemical biology tool to help researchers probe STK16-regulated pathways in cell signaling, vesicular trafficking, and secretion biology. In biochemical assays, STK16-IN-1 inhibits STK16 with an IC₅₀ of 0.295 μM (295 nM), supporting controlled perturbation of kinase activity in pathway-mapping experiments.

Research Applications
STK16-IN-1 is used to interrogate STK16 function in cellular systems where STK16 has been implicated in processes such as VEGF-related and cargo secretion pathways. In MCF-7 cells, treatment with STK16-IN-1 reduces cell number and induces accumulation of binucleated cells, a phenotype that InvivoChem notes can be recapitulated by RNAi knockdown of STK16, strengthening its value in mechanistic validation workflows.
Although STK16-IN-1 is not a click-ready building block, it can be incorporated into broader molecular assembly strategies by pairing it with orthogonal reporters or independently tagged probes to correlate STK16 inhibition with downstream phenotypes. In targeted protein degradation research, STK16-IN-1 is commonly positioned as a functional comparator to distinguish outcomes caused by catalytic inhibition versus approaches that reduce STK16 abundance (for example, degrader-based studies), improving interpretation of mechanism-of-action questions.
InvivoChem also reports that co-treatment with chemotherapeutics such as cisplatin, doxorubicin, colchicine, and paclitaxel can slightly potentiate anti-proliferative effects in MCF-7 cells, which may be useful when designing combination-response experiments in preclinical model systems.
STK16-IN-1 (CAS 1223001-53-3) has the molecular formula C₁₇H₁₂FN₃O and a molecular weight of 293.3. Its scaffold is optimized for kinase active-site engagement rather than for bioconjugation, and it does not include a dedicated bioorthogonal functional handle such as an azide or alkyne. As supplied, it is therefore not intended to participate directly in click chemistry workflows (CuAAC or SPAAC).

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
STK16 (serine/threonine protein kinase) (IC₅₀ = 0.295 μM for inhibitory activity against STK16 kinase; S score (1) = 0.0 in KinomeScan profiling assay, indicating excellent selectivity across the kinome) [1]
ln Vitro
As determined by the KinomeScanTM profiling experiment, STK16-IN-1 has strong inhibitory action against STK16 kinase (IC50=0.295 μM) and good selectivity throughout the kinome. The inhibitory concentration of STK16-IN-1 on mTOR kinase is 5.56 μM. Treatment of MCF-7 cells with STK16-IN-1 causes a decrease in the number of cells and a build-up of binucleated cells; this effect can be replicated by RNA interference (RNAi) knockdown of STK16. The anti-proliferative effects of chemotherapeutics such cisplatin, doxorubicin, colchicine, and paclitaxel are slightly enhanced when STK16-IN-1 is co-treated with these drugs. A helpful tool compound for better understanding the biological roles of STK16) is STK16-IN-1[1].
1. STK16-IN-1 is a highly selective ATP-competitive inhibitor of STK16 kinase, with an IC₅₀ of 0.295 μM for STK16 kinase inhibition. KinomeScan profiling assay confirmed its excellent selectivity across the kinome (S score (1) = 0.0). In MCF-7 breast cancer cells, treatment with STK16-IN-1 led to a reduction in cell number and accumulation of binucleated cells; this cellular phenotype was consistent with the effect of STK16 RNAi knockdown in MCF-7 cells. Co-treatment of MCF-7 cells with STK16-IN-1 and chemotherapeutic drugs (cisplatin, doxorubicin, colchicine, paclitaxel) slightly potentiated the antiproliferative effects of these chemotherapeutics [1]

Enzyme Assay
STK16-IN-1 is a novel and highly selective ATP competitive inhibitor of STK16 kinase with an IC50 of 295 nM. STK16 is a serine/threonine protein kinase that is ubiquitously expressed and is conserved among all eukaryotes. STK16 has been implicated to function in a variety of cellular processes such as VEGF and cargo secretion, but the pathways through which these effects are mediated remain to be elucidated. STK16-IN-1 exhibits potent inhibitory activity against STK16 kinase (IC50: 0.295 μM) with excellent selectivity across the kinome as assessed using the KinomeScan profiling assay (S score (1) = 0.0). STK16-IN-1 is generally prepared with 1:3 serial dilutions for 4 concentrations (100 nM, 50 nM, 20 nM, and 10 nM); 6 concentrations are used (1 mM to 10 μM) for ATP competition experiments. The kinase reaction is performed with 1×kinase reaction buffer. Reactions in each well are started immediately by adding ATP and kept going for half an hour under 37°C. After the plate cooled for 5 minutes at room temperature, 5 μL of ADP-Glo reagent is added into each well to stop the reaction and consume the remaining ADP within 40 minutes. At the end, 10 μL of kinase detection reagent is added into the well and incubated for 1 hour to produce a luminescence signal.
1. STK16 kinase activity inhibition assay: Recombinant STK16 kinase protein was incubated with different concentrations of STK16-IN-1 in a reaction buffer containing ATP and a specific peptide substrate of STK16. The reaction mixture was incubated at an appropriate temperature for a set period to allow kinase-mediated phosphorylation of the substrate. The amount of phosphorylated substrate was detected using a luminescent or colorimetric method to quantify STK16 kinase activity. The IC₅₀ value (0.295 μM) for STK16-IN-1 against STK16 kinase was calculated by fitting the dose-response curve of inhibitory activity. Kinome selectivity assay (KinomeScan profiling): A panel of hundreds of human kinases was screened to evaluate the inhibitory activity of STK16-IN-1 against each kinase at a fixed concentration. The binding affinity of STK16-IN-1 to each kinase was measured, and the S score (1) was calculated to assess the selectivity; an S score (1) of 0.0 indicated that STK16-IN-1 had no significant inhibitory effect on other kinases except STK16 [1]
Cell Assay
In MCF-7 cells, treatment with STK16-IN-1 results in a reduction in cell number and accumulation of binucleated cells, which can be recapitulated by RNAi knockdown of STK16. Co-treatment of STK16-IN-1 with chemotherapeutics such as cisplatin, doxorubicin, colchicine, and paclitaxel results in a slight potentiation of the antiproliferative effects of the chemotherapeutics. STK16-IN-1 provides a useful tool compound for further elucidating the biological functions of STK16. MCF-7, HCT116, HeLa cells are treated with STK16-IN-1 (0, 5, 10 μM) for 72 hours and apoptotic cells are analyzed by flow cytometry using Annexin V/PI apoptosis detection kit.


1. MCF-7 cell proliferation and phenotype assay: MCF-7 cells were seeded in 96-well or 6-well culture plates and cultured to reach logarithmic growth phase. Cells were treated with different concentrations of STK16-IN-1 (or vehicle control) for a specified time. For cell number quantification: Cells were trypsinized, and the number of viable cells was counted using a hemocytometer or an automated cell counter. For binucleated cell analysis: Cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde, stained with DAPI to label nuclei, and observed under a fluorescence microscope; the percentage of binucleated cells was counted. STK16 RNAi knockdown assay: MCF-7 cells were transfected with STK16-specific siRNA or negative control siRNA using a transfection reagent. After transfection for a certain time, cell number and nuclear morphology (binucleated cells) were analyzed as described above to compare with the effects of STK16-IN-1 treatment. Combination treatment with chemotherapeutics: MCF-7 cells were treated with STK16-IN-1 in combination with cisplatin, doxorubicin, colchicine, or paclitaxel at various concentrations. After incubation for a set period, cell viability was assessed using MTT or CCK-8 assay to determine the antiproliferative effect of the combination treatment and compare it with single-agent treatment [1]
