A Synergistic Anti-Cancer FAK and HDAC Inhibitor Combination Discovered by a Novel Chemical-Genetic High-Content Phenotypic Screen
2019-03-27
Abstract excerpt
We mutated the Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) catalytic domain to inhibit binding of the chaperone, Cdc37 and ATP, mimicking the actions of a FAK kinase inhibitor. We re-expressed mutant and wild-type FAK in squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) cells from which endogenous FAK had been deleted, genetically fixing one axis of a FAK inhibitor combination high-content phenotypic screen to discover drugs that may synergize with...
