Description
MKT-077 (FJ-776) is a highly water-soluble (>200mg/mL) rhodacyanine dye that exhibits significant antitumor activity, binds to Hsp70 family member, mortalin (mot-2), and abrogates its interactions with p53; induces release of wild-type p53 from cytoplasmically sequestered p53-mot-2 complexes and rescued its transcriptional activation function; also is a potent telomerase inhibitor with IC50 of 5uM
