Description

General description

Selective and cell-permeable inhibitor of MAP kinase kinase (MEK) that acts by inhibiting the activation of MAP kinase and subsequent phosphorylation of MAP kinase substrates. Pretreatment of PC-12 cells with PD 98059 completely blocks the 4-fold increase of MAP kinase activity produced by nerve growth factor (NGF; IC₅₀ = 2 µM); however, it has no effect on NGF-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of the pp140^trk receptor or its substrate Shc and does not block NGF-dependent activation of PI 3-kinase. Inhibits cell growth and reverses the phenotype of ras-transformed BALB 3T3 mouse fibroblasts and rat kidney cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cell permeable: yes

Primary Target
MAP kinase kinase (MEK)

Product does not compete with ATP.

Reversible: yes

Target IC₅₀: 2 µM in completely blocking the 4-fold increase in MAP kinase activity produced by nerve growth factor in PC12 cells
