GKI-1 is a Greatwall (GWL) kinase inhibitor with IC50s of 4.9 and 2.5 µM against hGWLFL and hGWL-KinDom, respectively. GKI-1 robustly inhibits ROCK1 with an IC50 of 11 µM, but only weakly affected PKA[1].GKI-1 inhibits full-length human GWL, and shows cellular efficacy[1].
Treatment of HeLa cells (25 and 50 µM, 0-8.5 hours) with GKI-1 reduces ENSA/ARPP19 phosphorylation levels, resulting in a decrease in mitotic events, mitotic arrest/cell death and cytokinesis failure[1].
