Tankyrase (TNKS) is a poly-ADP-ribosylating protein (PARP) whose activity suppresses cellular axin protein levels and elevates beta-catenin concentrations, resulting in increased oncogene expression. The inhibition of tankyrase (TNKS1 and 2) may reduce the levels of beta-catenin-mediated transcription and inhibit tumorigenesis. Compound 1 is a previously described moderately potent tankyrase inhibitor that suffers from poor pharmacokinetic properties. Herein, we describe the utilization of structure-based design and molecular modeling toward novel, potent, and selective tankyrase inhibitors with improved pharmacokinetic properties (39, 40).
