IBR2 is a potent and specific RAD51 inhibitor and inhibits RAD51 -mediated DNA double-strand break repair. IBR2 disrupts RAD51 multimerization, accelerates proteasome-mediated RAD51 protein degradation, inhibits cancer cell growth and induces apoptosis
In Vitro
IBR2 shows interesting RAD51 inhibition activities. RAD51 is rapidly degraded in IBR2-treated cancer cells, and the homologous recombination repair is impaired, subsequently leading to cell death. The IC 50 values of the original IBR2 are in the range of 12-20 μM for most tested cancer cell lines. IBR2 can inhibit the growth of triple-negative human breast cancer cell line MBA-MD-468 with an IC 50 of 14.8 μM. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
