Chemical Structure : WDR5 oligomerization inducer WZ-1
Catalog No.: PC-26366Not For Human Use, Lab Use Only.
WZ-1 is a selective WDR5 oligomerization inducer, binds the WBM site of WDR5 and reacts with Cys248 to form an intramolecular disulfide, triggers oligomerization via thio-disulfide exchange, disrupting WDR5 interactions at both WIN and WBM sites.

WZ-1 is a selective WDR5 oligomerization inducer, binds the WBM site of WDR5 and reacts with Cys248 to form an intramolecular disulfide, triggers oligomerization via thio-disulfide exchange, disrupting WDR5 interactions at both WIN and WBM sites.
WZ-1 inhibits cancer cell proliferation of colon cancer cell lines: CT26, RKO, DLD1, and SW620, with IC50 of 1.1-6.2 uM, by disrupting the interaction between WDR5 and its partner proteins.
WZ-1 does not substantially inhibit proliferation in normal colon cell lines NCM460 and immortalized human colon fibroblasts.
WZ-1 caused G0/G1 phase cell cycle arrest, induces significant negative enrichment of E2F and G2M checkpoint signaling pathways on CT26 cells.
WZ-1 also inhibits the expression of Myc target genes, markedly disrupts WDR5 binding to both MLL1 and c-Myc.
