Background:

Apcin is an inhibitor of the E3 ligase activity of the mitotic anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C). Apcin competitively binds to Cdc20 and prevents substrate interaction and ubiquitylation required for continuation of mitosis. Apcin enhances the effect of the APC/C inhibitor N-4-tosyl-L-arginine methyl ester and its prodrug, proTAME, leading to an increase in the number of cells in mitosis, a longer mitotic duration, and greater stabilization of cyclin B1, cycB1-NT, securin, and cyclin A2. Apcin, in combination with proTAME, synergistically increases apoptosis in multiple myeloma cells.
