Abstract

The marine sponge metabolite hymenialdisine is a potent inhibitor of a variety of kinases including MEK-1, GSK-3β, and CK1. In addition, hymenialdisine and debromohymenialdisine exhibit inhibition of the G2 cell cycle checkpoint at micromolar concentrations. We report herein the potent inhibition of cell cycle kinase Chk2 by the indolic- hymenialdisine indoloazepine 1 (IC50= 8nM).
