Wortmannin(渥曼青霉素)是一种真菌代谢物,可与I、II和III类磷脂酰肌醇-3-激酶(PI3K)共价结合并抑制其活性。II类PI3K的物种特异性差异决定了其对果蝇、小鼠和人的IC₅₀值分别为5、50和450 nM(Fruman et al.; Wymann et al.; Okada et al.)。渥曼青霉素还能抑制polo样激酶(PLK)PLK1和PLK3,IC₅₀值分别为24和49 nM(Liu et al. 2005; Liu et al. 2007)。在高浓度下,它还可以抑制其他激酶,例如哺乳动物雷帕霉素靶蛋白(mTOR)、DNA依赖性蛋白激酶催化亚基(DNA-PKcs)、磷脂酰肌醇-4-激酶(PI4K)、肌球蛋白轻链激酶(MLCK)和丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(MAPK)(Fruman et al.; Meyers & Cantley; Hartley et al.; Brunn et al.; Nakanishi et al.)。

Covalent reactions of wortmannin under physiological conditions. Yuan H et al. Chemistry & biology 2007

Abstract

Wortmannin (Wm), a steroid-like molecule of 428.4 Da, appears to be unstable in biological fluids (apparent chemical instability), yet it exhibits an antiproliferative activity in assays employing a 48 hr incubation period (prolonged bioactivity), a situation we refer to as the wortmannin paradox."

Polo-like kinases inhibited by wortmannin. Labeling site and downstream effects. Liu Y et al. The Journal of biological chemistry 2007

Abstract

Polo-like kinases play crucial roles throughout mitosis. We previously reported that wortmannin potently inhibits Polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1). In this study, we show that wortmannin also strongly inhibits Polo-like kinase 3 (Plk3). To further characterize this inhibition, we identified the sites of labeling on Plk1 and Plk3 targeted by AX7503, a tetramethylrhodamine-wortmannin conjugate. AX7503 labeling on Plk1 and Plk3 was found to occur on a conserved ATP binding site residue. In addition, we show that wortmannin inhibits Plk3 activity in live cells at concentrations commonly used to inhibit the more well known targets of wortmannin, the phosphoinositide 3-kinases. Importantly, we found that inhibition of Plk3 by wortmannin lead to a decrease in phosphorylation of p53 on serine 20 induced by DNA damage, demonstrating the effect of wortmannin on a downstream Plk3 target. Taken together, our results suggest that wortmannin can affect multiple functions of Plk3 in cell cycle progression and at the DNA damage check point. The identification of the labeling sites of Plk1 and Plk3 by AX7503 may be useful in designing more effective compounds to target Polo-like kinases for cancer treatment and also may be useful for the structural study of Plk domains.
Wortmannin, a widely used phosphoinositide 3-kinase inhibitor, also potently inhibits mammalian polo-like kinase. Liu Y et al. Chemistry & biology 2005

Abstract

Polo-like kinases (PLKs) play critical roles throughout mitosis. Here, we report that wortmannin, which was previously thought to be a highly selective inhibitor of phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinases, is a potent inhibitor of mammalian PLK1. Observation of the wortmannin-PLK1 interaction was enabled by a tetramethylrhodamine-wortmannin conjugate (AX7503) that permits rapid detection of PLK1 activity and expression in complex proteomes. Importantly, we show that wortmannin inhibits PLK1 activity in an in vitro kinase assay with an IC(50) of 24 nM and when incubated with intact cells. Taken together, our results indicate that, at the concentrations of wortmannin commonly used to inhibit PI 3-kinases, PLK1 is also significantly inhibited.
