Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Belzutifan, also known as PT2977 and MK-6482, is HIF-2alpha inhibitor. PT2977 binds to and blocks the function of HIF-2alpha, thereby preventing HIF-2alpha heterodimerization and its subsequent binding to DNA. This results in decreased transcription and expression of HIF-2alpha downstream target genes, many of which regulate hypoxic signaling. This inhibits cell growth and survival of HIF-2alpha-expressing tumor cells. HIF-2alpha, the alpha subunit for the heterodimeric transcription factor HIF-2, is overexpressed in many cancers and promotes tumorigenesis. Belzutifan was approved in 2021 for treatment of von Hippel-Lindau disease under certain conditions

More Info
Biological target:
Belzutifan (PT2977) is an orally active and selective HIF-2α inhibitor with an IC50 of 9 nM.
In vitro activity:
The complex structure shows that belzutifan binds into the PAS-B pocket of HIF-2α, and it destabilizes the dimerization of HIF-2α and ARNT through allosteric effects mainly mediated by the key residue M252 of HIF-2α near the dimer interface. This study further explored the inhibitory effects of belzutifan using biochemical and functional assays. The time-resolved fluorescence energy transfer (TR-FRET)-based binding assay showed that belzutifan disrupts the dimerization of HIF-2α and ARNT with a Ki value of 20 nM. The luciferase reporter assay indicated that belzutifan can efficiently inhibit the transcriptional activity of HIF-2α with an IC50 value of 17 nM. Besides, the real-time PCR assay illustrated that belzutifan can reduce the expression of HIF-2α downstream genes in 786-O kidney cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner.
