Product Description

THZ1 (THZ-1) is a novel, potent, selective and covalent/irreversible CDK7 inhibitor (IC50 = 3.2 nM) with anticancer activity. It has exceptional ability to target a remote cysteine residue located outside of the canonical kinase domain, providing an unanticipated means of achieving selectivity for CDK7. THZ1 covalently modifies CDK7 by targeting C312 residue outside of the kinase domain, providing an unanticipated means of achieving covalent selectivity. THZ1 potently inhibits proliferation of Jurkat and Loucy T-ALL cell lines with IC50 values of 50nM and 0.55nM, respectively. In the kinase binding assay, THZ1 shows a good binding affinity with IC50 value of 3.2nM.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Jurkat cells and Loucy cells are inhibited by THZ1, with IC50 values of 50 nM and 0.55 nM, respectively. CDK12 is inhibited by THZ1 (9, 27, 83, 250, 750, and 2500 nM), although at higher concentrations than CDK7. THZ1 (1 μM) phosphorylates CAK and RNAPII CTD irreversibly. In Hela S3 cells, THZ1 (2.5 μM) covalently targets a specific cysteine outside the CDK7 kinase domain to irreversibly prevent RNAPII CTD phosphorylation. In T-ALL cell lines, THZ1 (250 nM) causes a drop in anti-apoptotic proteins, most notably MCL-1 and XIAP, as well as an increase in the apoptotic index and lower cell proliferation [1]. With an IC50 ranging from 5 to 20 nM, all genotyped human (hSCLC) cell lines exhibit great sensitivity to THZ1 [3].
ln Vivo
THZ1 (10 mg/kg) exhibits potent killing of primary chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells and antiproliferative activity on primary TALL cells and on human T-ALL xenografts in vivo [1]. THZ1 (10 mg/kg, iv) reduced tumor growth and demonstrated no toxicity in a human MYCN-amplified NB mouse model [4]. THZ1 (10 mg/kg, ip) fully suppresses esophageal squamous cell carcinoma tumor growth in animals without weight loss or other common adverse symptoms [5].

Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 5 mg/mL (8.83 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.42 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (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 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

*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.
