CAS#656820-32-5
Reversine, a novel Aurora kinases inhibitor, inhibits colony formation of human acute myeloid leukemia cells. Reversine is a potent inhibitor of Aurora A and B and is also an inhibitor of Aurora C kinase. Aurora A and B activities are inhibited by 80% and Aurora kinase C by 55%, already at a concentration of 0.5 μM, whereas no inhibition or only modest inhibition is observed on others kinases tested. In a second round of experiments, the IC50 of Reversine is determined on Aurora kinase A to be 400 nM, whereas Aurora kinase B and C IC50 are 500 and 400 nM, respectively. The IC50 is also determined on MEK1 is >1.5 μM and that the IC50 on muscle myosin (an analogue of nonmuscle myosin II) is 350 nM.
