General description

Marinopyrrole A (Maritoclax) is a member of phenolic 1,3′-bipyrroles family targeting actin group.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Marinopyrrole A (Maritoclax) is a potent and selective inhibitor of Bcl-2 family member Mcl-1, originally isolated from marine streptomycetes for its antimicrobial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Marinopyrrole A directly binds to Mcl-1 and targets it for proteasomal degradation. Marinopyrrole A induced apoptosis in Mcl-1-dependent cancer cells and sensitized cancer cells to ABT-737.

The targeting of marinopyrrole A to actin was identified using a fluorescent dye transfer strategy. The process began by appending a carboxylic acid terminal tag to a phenol in the natural product. The resulting probe was then studied in live
