Figure Lengend Snippet: PK11000 bound to and stabilized p53 DBD. (A) Melting curve of the stabilized p53-Y220C DBD (T-p53C-Y220C) recorded via differential scanning fluorimetry in absence (blue) or in presence of 1 mM PK11000 (magenta). (B) Inhibition of T-p53C-Y220C aggregation by PK11000. Aggregation kinetics were recorded by monitoring light scattering at 500 nm with 3 μM protein at 37 °C in standard assay buffer [25 mM KPi pH 7.2, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM TCEP, and 5% (vol/vol) DMSO]. Unlike for noncovalent binders that inhibit aggregation where the amplitude of the reaction remains unchanged and just the rate constants being lower, the amplitude of light scattering was substantially decreased at 250, 500, and 1,000 µM of PK11000, suggesting the presence of two species: unmodified p53-Y220C and a covalent adduct of PK11000 and p53. (C) Mapping of PK11000 induced peak shifts in the 15N-1H HSQC NMR spectrum onto the structure of the p53-Y220C DBD. Large peak shifts are highlighted in red; medium shifts in orange; and small shifts in yellow.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Structural effect of Cys182 modification by PK11000. Superposition of the structure of the p53 cancer mutant Y220C with (gray) and without (green) PK11000 shows that Cys182 on the surface of the L2 loop is modified by the alkylating agent, with the covalent modification pointing toward the solvent. Chain A of the asymmetric unit is shown. Alkylation fixes Cys182 in a defined conformation, but there is little interaction between the modification and the rest of the protein. The figure was generated using PyMOL (www.pymol.org).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Biological effects of PK11007 on diverse cancer cell lines and one human fibroblast cell line. (A) Concentration-dependent viability reduction of WI-38 (fibroblast), NUGC-4 (p53 WT), HUH-6 (p53 WT), SJSA-1 (p53 WT), SW480 (p53 R273H/P309S), NUGC-3 (p53 Y220C), HUH-7 (p53 Y220C), and MKN1 (p53 V143A) cells after treatment with PK11007 for 24 h. The mutant p53 cells HUH-7, MKN1, and NUGC-3 were more sensitive to PK11007 treatment as indicated by strong viability reduction at low compound concentrations. Cell viability was measured in quadruplicate and normalized with the values of blank (viability = 1) and no cell (viability = 0) controls. Data are shown as mean ± SEM. (B) Incubation of the isogenic H1299 (p53−/−), H1299 (p53 H175), HCT116, and HCT116 p53−/− cancer cells with PK11007 yielded a comparable viability reduction after 24 h. (C) Cell viability of HUH-6, HUH-7, and MKN1 after p53 knockdown via siRNA. Cells were treated with PK11007 for 24 h (48 h for 15 µM PK11007 MKN1 sample). In HUH-6 and HUH-7, cell death was independent of p53, whereas it was partially dependent on p53 in MKN1 cells. (D) Western blots of NUGC-4, NUGC-3, MKN1, HUH-6, and HUH-7 cancer cells after 3 h (6 h for MKN1) treatment with PK11007. p53 target genes p21, PUMA, and MDM2 were up-regulated not only in MKN1 (p53-V143A), NUGC-3, and HUH-7 (both p53-Y220C), but also in HUH-6 and NUGC-4 (both p53 WT) cells. With increasing PK11007 concentration, the molecular weight of p53 gradually increased to ∼3 kDa for the mutant p53 cell lines (HUH-7, MKN1, and NUGC-3), suggesting hyperalkylation of unfolded/aggregated p53. The protein level of the antioxidative gene GSTP1 was higher in NUGC-4 (p53 WT) than in NUGC-3. The asterisks at the p53 target gene levels of HUH-6 and HUH-7 cells highlight the genes for which a different β-actin control was used. (E) Quantification of relative mRNA levels of p53 target genes via real-time PCR. Cells were treated with DMSO or 15 µM (MKN1, HUH-7) or 20 µM (NUGC-3, HUH-6) PK11007 for 6 h (4.5 h for HUH-7). p21 and PUMA mRNA levels were especially up-regulated in mutant p53 cells, whereas in p53 WT cells (HUH-6) no increased transcription was observed. Significance levels were calculated with the Student t test (***P < 0.001; **P < 0.01; *P < 0.05). (F) Western blots of protein levels of UPR key markers in MKN1, HUH-6, and HUH-7 cells. PK11007 treatment for 3 h (6 h for MKN1) increased levels of spliced XBP-1 and CHOP (especially in HUH-7). (G) Inhibition of cellular glutathione synthesis by buthionine sulfoximine strongly potentiated cell viability reduction by PK11007 in HUH-7, NUGC-3, and MKN1 mutant p53 cancer cells. (H) Determination of relative intracellular ROS levels via CellROX Deep Red fluorescence after incubating four cancer cell lines with 30 or 60 µM PK11007 for 2 h. PK11007 caused increase of ROS in all tested cell lines. However, at high doses, the increase of relative ROS levels was higher in HUH-7, NUGC-3, and MKN1 cells. Median fluorescence levels were determined in triplicate with error bars depicting the SE. Significance levels were calculated using a one-way ANOVA with the Bonferroni post hoc test for mean comparison (***P < 0.001; **P < 0.01; *P < 0.05).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Biological effects of 2-sulfonylpyrimidines on diverse cell lines. Concentration-dependent viability reduction of WI-38 (p53 WT, noncancer), NUGC-4 (p53 WT), HUH-6 (p53 WT), SJSA-1 (p53 WT), SW480 (p53 R273H/P309S), NUGC-3 (p53 Y220C), HUH-7 (p53 Y220C), and MKN1 (p53 V143A) cells after compound treatment for 24 h. The strongest effects on cell viability were observed for PK11007 and PK11012. Mutant p53 cell lines were mostly significantly more sensitive for these compounds than p53 WT and noncancer cell lines. This behavior was also observed for PK11010 and PK11029, however only at higher compound concentrations. PK11003 led to a strong viability decrease; however, it did not distinguish clearly between mutant and WT p53 cell lines. Compounds that contain a negatively charged carboxyl group, such as PK11000 and PK11009, did not lead to a significant cell viability decrease in the tested cell lines at concentrations below 120 µM. Mutant p53 cell lines were also extra sensitive to compounds that destabilized the p53 core domain in vitro, such as PK11012 and PK11015. Cell viability was measured in quadruplicate and normalized with the values of blank (viability = 1) and no cell (viability = 0) controls. Data are shown as mean ± SEM.

PK11007 treatment led to a significant reduction of unfolded p53 (Pab 240) and a slight increase in folded p53 (Pab 1620). Hoechst 33342 dye was used to stain the nucleus. To facilitate comparison of Pab 1620 and Pab 240 fluorescence levels, we increased exposure of all raw pictures by 2 eV.
