More Info:

Biological target: Madrasin (DDD00107587) is a pre-mRNA splicing inhibitor that prevents formation of both splicing intermediates and products in vitro and interferes with one or more early steps in the pathway of spliceosome assembly.
In vitro activity: To further determine the outcome of splicing defects in POLR2A, HeLa cells were treated with splicing inhibitor madrasin. RT-PCR and western blot revealed that POLR2A expression was down-regulated at RNA and protein levels (Figure3A–D). The inhibitory effect of madrasin on splicing was verified by RT-PCR as the treatment led to substantial increase of unspliced transcripts (Figure3E3E and F). Consistently, IF staining also supported that madrasin treatment resulted in POLR2A down-regulation (Figure3G). In addition, nascent RNA was markedly decreased after madrasin treatment by EU incorporation assay (Figure3H).Similarly, the expression of POLR2A in 293T or MDA-MB-231 cells was decreased at both RNA and protein levels when treated with madrasin (Supplementary Figure S7). These data together supported that splicing defects in POLR2A induced by XAB2 depletion was the major mechanism for decreased expression of POLR2A at RNA level.
