Novel inhibitor of pre-mRNA splicing in vitro
CP028 is a small molecule inhibitor, CAS No. 347397-83-5.
It is described in the literature as a pre-mRNA splicing inhibitor, specifically interfering with spliceosome activation. MPG.PuRe+1
In the “Identification of a small molecule inhibitor that stalls splicing …” paper, the authors name CP028 (R = 4-fluoro in a scaffold) as the compound that blocks conversion of the pre-catalytic spliceosomal B complex into the activated B^act complex. MPG.PuRe+1
CP028 stalls the spliceosome at an intermediate activation stage: it prevents the transition from the B complex to the B^act complex. MPG.PuRe+1
In the stalled spliceosome complex (termed B028), some rearrangements (e.g. release of U4/U6 snRNP proteins) have occurred, but full activation does not proceed (e.g. incorporation of Prp19/CDC5L complex). MPG.PuRe
Thus, CP028 acts upstream of full spliceosome catalytic activation, and is useful as a tool for dissecting spliceosome dynamics. MPG.PuRe
Because splicing is essential for mRNA maturation, inhibiting activation of the spliceosome can suppress expression of many genes, particularly those reliant on efficient splicing.
In a more specific context, one recent study tied CP028’s splicing inhibition to antiviral effects. In the context of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, CP028 (acting upstream of the LSm2-8 complex, which is involved in U6 snRNA and spliceosome machinery) suppressed viral RNA levels, and potentiated the effect of IFN-α. Frontiers
That same HBV study notes that knockdown of LSm8 had similar effects, and CP028’s splicing inhibition may disrupt the function of the nuclear LSm2-8 complex (which is involved in U6 snRNA / spliceosome function) in a way that suppresses HBV biosynthesis. Frontiers+1
