Product Description
RU.521 is a potent and selective cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) inhibitor (Kd = 36.2 nM; IC50 values are 0.11 μM and 2.94 μM against m-cGAS and h-cGAS, respectively). RU.521 suppresses dsDNA-activated reporter activity but not 5'ppp-HP20 RNA or murine IFN-β-induced IFN-β1-dependent gene expression. RU.521 reduces constitutive expression of type I interferon in primary macrophages from a mouse model of Aicardi-Goutières syndrome. Pretreatment of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) redirected T cells with RU.521 increases efficiency of virus-free gene editing by improving cell viability and CAR integration in cell line.
