Synonyms: AX-15836 | compound A10 [PMID: 27679845]
Compound class:
Synthetic organic
Comment: AX15836 is reported as a selective inhibitor of ERK5 (mitogen-activated protein kinase 7; MAPK7) [2]. It was designed to inhibit the catalytic function of ERK5, to offer potential for use in inflammation and oncology. AX15836 has also been reported to activate ERK5 transcriptional activity [1], which paradoxically elevates ERK5 signalling,
![]() 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. ✖ |
