Selectivity of 4,5,6,7‐tetrabromobenzotriazole, an ATP site‐directed inhibitor of protein kinase CK2 (‘casein kinase‐2’)
Abstract
The specificity of 4,5,6,7‐tetrabromo‐2‐azabenzimidazole (TBB), an ATP/GTP competitive inhibitor of protein kinase casein kinase‐2 (CK2), has been examined against a panel of 33 protein kinases, either Ser/Thr‐ or Tyr‐specific. In the presence of 10 μM TBB (and 100 μM ATP) only CK2 was drastically inhibited (>85%) whereas three kinases (phosphorylase kinase, glycogen synthase kinase 3β and cyclin‐dependent kinase 2/cyclin A) underwent moderate inhibition, with IC 50 values one–two orders of magnitude higher than CK2 (IC 50=0.9 μM). TBB also inhibits endogenous CK2 in cultured Jurkat cells. A CK2 mutant in which Val66 has been replaced by alanine is much less susceptible to inhibition by TBB as well as by another ATP competitive inhibitor, emodin. These data show that TBB is a quite selective inhibitor of CK2, that can be used in cell‐based assays.

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.
