Mannich Base PIP-199 Is a Chemically Unstable Pan-Assay Interference Compound.
Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 2023 August 10
Mannich base PIP-199 is the only reported small-molecule inhibitor of the Fanconi anemia complementation group M-RecQ-mediated genome instability protein (FANCM-RMI), a protein-protein interaction that governs genome instability in the genetic disorders Fanconi anemia and Bloom's syndrome. PIP-199 and analogues with the same indole-derived Mannich base scaffold have been used as tool compounds in diverse biological studies. We report the first published synthesis of PIP-199 and its analogues, demonstrating that PIP-199 immediately decomposes in common aqueous buffers and some organic solvents. Neither PIP-199 nor its more hydrolytically stable analogues show any observable activity in binding and competitive biophysical assays for FANCM-RMI. We conclude that PIP-199 is not an effective tool compound for biological studies and that apparent cellular activity likely arises from the nonspecific toxicity of breakdown products. More generally, apparent inhibitors that share this Mannich scaffold potentially represent a new family of pan-assay interference compounds (PAINS) that should be thoroughly assessed for aqueous stability prior to use in biological studies.
