Stat5A Core in Complex with AK305
Structural highlights
FunctionSTA5A_HUMAN Carries out a dual function: signal transduction and activation of transcription. Mediates cellular responses to the cytokine KITLG/SCF and other growth factors. Mediates cellular responses to ERBB4. May mediate cellular responses to activated FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4. Binds to the GAS element and activates PRL-induced transcription. Regulates the expression of milk proteins during lactation.[1] Publication Abstract from PubMedSignal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (STAT5) is an attractive therapeutic target, but successful targeting of STAT5 has proved to be difficult. Here we report the development of AK-2292 as a first, potent and selective small-molecule degrader of both STAT5A and STAT5B isoforms. AK-2292 induces degradation of STAT5A/B proteins with an outstanding selectivity over all other STAT proteins and more than 6,000 non-STAT proteins, leading to selective inhibition of STAT5 activity in cells. AK-2292 effectively induces STAT5 depletion in normal mouse tissues and human chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) xenograft tissues and achieves tumor regression in two CML xenograft mouse models at well-tolerated dose schedules. AK-2292 is not only a powerful research tool with which to investigate the biology of STAT5 and the therapeutic potential of selective STAT5 protein depletion and inhibition but also a promising lead compound toward ultimate development of a STAT5-targeted therapy.
