Comment: SNX281 is a systemically active stimulator of interferon genes (STING) agonist, that was developed to induce anti-tumour immunity [1]. SNX281 is competitive with the endogenous cyclic dinucleotide STING agonist 2'3'-cGAMP. Analysis reveals that SNX281 self-dimerises to generate a structure that is large enough to occupy STING's cyclic dinucleotide binding site, which switches the protein to its active state conformation.
Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |

Bioactivity Comments |
SNX281's binding activity is maintained across mouse, rat and monkey STING proteins [1]. In vitro SNX281 promotes STING-mediated cytokine release, including induction of type I IFN. In vivo, administration of SNX281 has demonstrated tumour elimination after a single dose (in mouse models), and this is accompanied by a lasting immune memory. |
