A cell-permeable acrylamide compound that inhibits human, but not murine, MLKL adaptor function via covalent modification of Cys86 and is more potent than Nec-1 in preventing necrotic/necroptotic death in human HT-29 (IC50 = 124nM and 2uM, respectively), being ineffective against necrosis/necroptosis in murine L929 or apoptosis in human RIP3-null Panc-1 cells. Unlike Nec-1, which prevents necrosome formation by blocking RIP1-RIP3 interaction, MLKL prevents the MLKL-RIP1-RIP3 necrosome complex from interacting with further downstream effectors.
Molecular Formula:C₁₈H₁₅N₅O₆S₂
Primary Target:human MLKL
Molecular Weight:461.5
