Application

RO-3306 has been used:
  • To study the significance of CA4-mediated cytotoxicity in mitotic arrest
  • In cell cycle synchronization to conduct a study on proteomics
  • As a CDK1 inhibitor, to prevent early mitotic entry

Biochem/physiol Actions

CDK1 (cyclin dependent kinase 1) is considered to be the “master switch” in cell division, which maintains the mitotic state of cells.
RO-3306 is a selective ATP-competitive inhibitor of CDK1. It inhibites CDK1 cyclin B1 activity with Ki of 35 nM, nearly 10-fold selectivity relative to CDK2/cyclin E and over 50-fold relative to CDK4/cyclin D. RO-3306 has been used to cause cell cycle arrest at the G2/M boundary.
