Biochem/physiol Actions

Disruptor of SEC (super elongation complex)
KL-2 is a disruptor of the super elongation complex (SEC). KL-1 blocks the interactions of positive transcription elongation factorb (P-TEFb) and the SEC-scaffolding protein AFF4 resulting in decreased Polymerase II (Pol II) activity and production of Pol II-transcribed genes. KL-2 was shown to cause downregulation of heat shock genes, and was non-toxic and active in an animal model of cancer.

The super elongation complex (SEC) is required for robust and productive transcription through release of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) with its P-TEFb module and promoting transcriptional processivity with its ELL2 subunit. Malfunction of SEC contributes to multiple human diseases
