NVS-PAK1-1 is an allosteric inhibitor of p21-activated kinase 1 (PAK1), a non-receptor serine/threonine kinase involved in tumorigenesis (Kd = 7 nM).1 It has an IC50 value of 5.2 nM in a PAK1 dephosphorylation assay. NVS-PAK1-1 is selective for PAK1 over PAK2 (Kd = 400 nM) and over a panel of 442 kinases, where it did not inhibit any other kinases by greater than 80%.1,2 It inhibits phosphorylation of MEK Ser289 when used at concentrations ranging from 6 to 20 µM but does not inhibit proliferation of Su86.86 cells at concentrations lower than 2 µM.1 See the Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) website for more information.
