Background:

The chemical structure of L189 had been shown [1]. Three distinct chemical steps are involved in the formation of a new phosphodiester bond in DNA: (1) enzyme adenylylation, (2) adenylyl transfer to DNA, and (3) nick sealing [2]. L189 preferentially inhibits the second step [1]. L189 showed no inhibition even at a concentration of 100 μM to T4 DNA ligase. IC50 values for L189 to inhibit human DNA ligases I, III and IV are 5 ± 2 μM, 9 ± 2 μM and 5 ± 2 μM, respectively [1].

DNA ligase I catalyzes the ligation of single-strand breaks to complete DNA replication and repair. DNA ligase III is required for mitochondrial DNA replication and repair. DNA ligase IV is specialized for repair of nuclear double-strand breaks and is required for nonhomologous end joining and V (D) J recombination [2].

In a concentration-dependent manner, L189 reduced the viability and/or proliferation of a normal breast epithelial cell line MCF10A and the cancer cell lines HeLa, MCF7 and HCT116 established from cervical, breast and colon cancers, respectively. L189 also increase the rate of killed cells in cancer cell lines, especially HCT116 colon cancer cell lines and other cancer cell lines by ionizing radiation. But L189 did not increase the rate of killed cells in the normal cell line [1].

In vivo data and clinical trials are not yet available [3].
