General description

A cell-permeable benzoic acid based compound that acts as a selective, highly potent, non-nucleotide competitive inhibitor of the catalytic activity of telomerase (IC50 = 93 nM in HeLa cells nuclear extracts). Also shown to be effective against recombinant, affinity purified telomerase. Blocks the growth and proliferation of HeLa cells (~ 20 µM) by inducing apoptosis. The inhibition appears to be more prominent in TEL patch mutant cell lines. Causes a continuous erosion of telomeres in multiple human cancer cell lines. Does not affect the activity of DNA and RNA polymerases in any significant manner.
