Probe criteria


Inhibitor/agonist potency: goal is < 100 nM (IC50, KD) Surpasses criterion: Human biochemical (TR-FRET) assay: MALT1 IC50 = 18 nM (low salt) and 2.4 nM (high salt)
Selectivity within target family: > 30-fold Surpasses criterion: No cross reactivity among proteases owing to allosteric mechanism.
Selectivity outside target family Surpasses criterion: No activities across a panel of 50 kinases at 10 µM (except for FLT3 with 3.5 µM inhibition). No activities across a panel of 110 receptors, ion channels, enzymes and transporters at 10 µM (except for 52% inhibition of adenosine transporter AdT).
Clean PDSP scan
On target cell activity for cell-based targets: goal is < 1 µM IC50/EC50 Surpasses criterion: Jurkat IL-2 (IL2-RGA PMA + anti-CD28): IC50 = 3.4 nM; IL-2 – PMA + anti-CD28 + 50% Human whole blood IC50 = 200 nM; IL-2 – PMA + anti-CD28 + 50% Rat whole blood IC50 = 130 nM
Control compound (100 times less potent than the probe) NVS-MALT1-C: Human biochemical (TR-FRET) assay: MALT1 IC50 = 190 nM (high salt); Jurkat IL-2 (IL2-RGA PMA + anti-CD28): IC50 = 1.9 µM
Only off-targets in the PDSP scan (43 targets) at 10 µM are TMEM97 (Ki = 889.82 nM) and SIGMAR1 (Ki = 1593.68 nM)
