NSC114792, a novel small molecule identified through structure-based computational database screening, selectively inhibits JAK3
[Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC2830973
Evidence Type(s): Oncogenic, Functional
Justification: Oncogenic: The variant JAK3V674A is described as an activating allele that transforms BaF3 cells to IL-3-independent growth, indicating its role in promoting oncogenic processes. Functional: The study demonstrates that JAK3V674A leads to increased viability of BaF3 cells in the absence of IL-3, and that inhibition of JAK3 activity by NSC114792 decreases cell viability, showing a functional consequence of the variant.
