COPPER TRANSPORT
Chaperone proteins (green) transfer copper ions to
copper-dependent proteins (lilac) via ligand exchange between two
cysteines (-SH groups) on each protein. DC_AC50 binds the chaperone and
inhibits this interaction.

Inhibition of human copper trafficking by a small molecule significantly attenuates cancer cell proliferation
- Nature Chemistry, (2015)
- doi:10.1038/nchem.2381
Jing Chen of Emory University School of Medicine, Hualiang Jiang of the Shanghai Institute of Materia Medica of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Chuan He of the University of Chicago, and coworkers have now developed a selective way of blocking copper transport in cancer cells (Nat. Chem.
2015, DOI: 10.1038/nchem.2381). By screening a database of 200,000
druglike small molecules, the researchers discovered a promising
compound, DC_AC50, for cancer treatment. They zeroed in on the compound
by testing how well database hits inhibited a protein-protein
interaction leading to copper transport and reduced proliferation of
cancer cells.
Scientists had already found a molecule, tetrathiomolybdate, that
interferes with copper trafficking and have tested it in clinical trials
against cancer. But tetrathiomolybdate is a copper chelator: It
inhibits copper transport in cells by nonselectively sequestering copper
ions. Sometimes, the chelator snags too much copper, inhibiting
essential copper-based processes in normal cells and causing side
effects.
In contrast, DC_AC50 works by inhibiting interactions between
proteins in the copper-trafficking pathway: It prevents chaperone
proteins, called Atox1 and CCS, from passing copper ions to enzymes that
use them to run vital cellular processes. Cancer cells are heavy users
of Atox1 and CCS, so DC_AC50 affects cancer cells selectively.
The team has licensed DC_AC50 to Suring Therapeutics, in Suzhou,
China, for developing anticancer therapies. The group also plans to
further tweak DC_AC50 to develop more-potent versions.
Thomas O’Halloran
of Northwestern University, who has studied tetrathiomolybdate,
comments that “the challenge in drug design is hitting one of these
copper-dependent processes without messing with housekeeping functions
that normal cells depend upon. DC_AC50 appears to block the function of
copper metallochaperone proteins without interacting directly with their
cargo, copper ions. As the first member of a new class of inhibitors,
it provides a new way to interrogate the physiology of copper
trafficking disorders and possibly intervene.”
