SB 203580 is a specific inhibitor of a MAP kinase homologue which is stimulated by cellular stresses and interleukin‐1

·1995·FEBS Letters

Abstract

A class of pyridinyl imidazoles inhibit the MAP kinase homologue, termed here reactivating kinase (RK) [Lee et al. (1994) Nature 372, 739–746]. We now show that one of these compounds (SB 203580) inhibits RK in vitro (IC 50 = 0.6 μM), suppresses the activation of MAPKAP kinase‐2 and prevents the phosphorylation of heat shock protein (HSP) 27 in response to interleukin‐1, cellular stresses and bacterial endotoxin in vivo. These results establish that MAPKAP kinase‐2 is a physiological RK substrate, and that HSP27 is phosphorylated by MAPKAP kinase‐2 in vivo. The specificity of SB 203580 was indicated by its failure to inhibit 12 other protein kinases in vitro, and by its lack of effect on the activation of RK kinase and other MAP kinase cascades in vivo. We suggest that SB 203580 will be useful for identifying other physiological roles and targets of RK and MAPKAP kinase‐2.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
