Human TNKS1 in complex with 3-[4-(1-Hydroxy-1-methyl-ethyl)-phenyl]-6-methyl-2H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazin-1-one
Structural highlights
FunctionTNKS1_HUMAN Poly-ADP-ribosyltransferase involved in various processes such as Wnt signaling pathway, telomere length and vesicle trafficking. Acts as an activator of the Wnt signaling pathway by mediating poly-ADP-ribosylation (PARsylation) of AXIN1 and AXIN2, 2 key components of the beta-catenin destruction complex: poly-ADP-ribosylated target proteins are recognized by RNF146, which mediates their ubiquitination and subsequent degradation. Also mediates PARsylation of BLZF1 and CASC3, followed by recruitment of RNF146 and subsequent ubiquitination. Mediates PARsylation of TERF1, thereby contributing to the regulation of telomere length. Involved in centrosome maturation during prometaphase by mediating PARsylation of HEPACAM2/MIKI. May also regulate vesicle trafficking and modulate the subcellular distribution of SLC2A4/GLUT4-vesicles. May be involved in spindle pole assembly through PARsylation of NUMA1.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] Publication Abstract from PubMedConstitutive activation of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway, in most cases driven by inactivation of the tumor suppressor APC, is a hallmark of colorectal cancer. Tankyrases are druggable key regulators in these malignancies and are considered as attractive targets for therapeutic interventions, although no inhibitor has been progressed to clinical development yet. We continued our efforts to develop tankyrase inhibitors targeting the nicotinamide pocket with suitable drug-like properties for investigating effects of Wnt pathway inhibition on tumor growth. Herein, the identification of a screening hit series and its optimization through scaffold hopping and SAR exploration is described. The systematic assessment delivered M2912, a compound with an optimal balance between excellent TNKS potency, exquisite PARP selectivity, and a predicted human PK compatible with once daily oral dosing. Modulation of cellular Wnt pathway activity and significant tumor growth inhibition was demonstrated with this compound in colorectal xenograft models in vivo.
