LC-04-045 is a NEK7 (NIMA-related kinase 7) molecular glue degrader (MGD) . LC-04-045 demonstrates potent activity of NEK7 degradation with a DC50 (half-maximal degradation) of 7 nM and a Dmax (maximum degradation) of 90% in MOLT-4 cells. LC-04-045 displays high selectivity for NEK7 across the proteome. LC-04-045 degrades NEK7 mediated by the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and relies on the glycine 57 (G57) -containing degron motif in NEK7. LC-04-045 effectively inhibits secretion of IL-1β and IL-18 with IC50s of 33.03 nM and 32.99 nM, respectively. LC-04-045 is potential for inflammatory diseases research[1].
