Arf Family GTPase

ADP-ribosylation Factor (ARF) Family GTPase

ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf) GTPases are a subfamily of the Ras superfamily of small GTPases. In mammals, there are approximately 30 members of the ARF GTPases family, divided into "true ARFs" (6 types) and "ARF-like" (ARL) proteins (21 types), as well as other related proteins such as SARs. ARF GTPases play a crucial role in regulating membrane trafficking and organelle structure. They are activated and deactivated through GTP binding and hydrolysis, mediated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) and GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs). ARF GTPases regulate a variety of key cellular processes such as vesicle formation, protein sorting, lipid remodeling, and the dynamics of the cytoskeleton, thereby affecting secretion, endocytosis, and cell adhesion. Their activity involves interactions with a variety of effectors, including coat proteins, lipid-modifying enzymes, and scaffold proteins.
The aberrant expression or dysfunction of ARF GTPases is associated with various disease states, including neurodegenerative diseases, tumors, and immune system disorders. Specifically, the role of ARF GTPases in membrane remodeling and cell signaling makes them potential targets for research into these diseases[1].

  • HY-173350
    Ran-IN-1
    		Inhibitor
    Ran-IN-1 (Compound M36) is an orally active and selective Ran GTPase inhibitor. Ran-IN-1 binds to the GDP-bound form of Ran (RanGDP) at the allosteric switch II pocket with high specificity, stabilizing the inactive state and reducing the active Ran-GTP population. Ran-IN-1 induces apoptosis and represses DNA repair pathways like HR and NHEJ in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) cells. Ran-IN-1 is promising for research of EOC, particularly high-grade serous carcinoma.

    Brefeldin A 4-O-nicotinate
    		Inhibitor
    Brefeldin A 4-O-nicotinate (CHNQD-01228) is a dual inhibitor of Arf1 and BMX proteins. The IC50 value for the proliferation of T24 cells is 0.22 μM. It can also dose-dependently inhibit the migration and colony formation of T24 cells, induce G1 phase arrest and trigger Apoptosis. Brefeldin A 4-O-nicotinate exerts its anti-cancer activity by targeting the BMX protein to inhibit the AKT/p-AKT and STAT3/p-STAT3 signaling pathways, as well as by inhibiting the Arf1 protein to eliminate bladder cancer stem cells and activate anti-tumor immunity. Brefeldin A 4-O-nicotinate can be used in the research related to bladder cancer.
