Biochem/physiol Actions

CR8 is a potent and selective inhibitor of cyclin dependent kinase (CDK1, 2, 5, 7, and 9). CR8 is a more potent pyridyl analogue of roscovitine (Cat. No. R7772). In comparison to roscovirtine, the compound gains in potency toward CK1, which is involved in amyloid-β formation. The R-CR8 enantiomer is slightly more potent than S. CR8 is around 30 times more potent at cellular assay then roscovitine. Acts as a molecular glue to induce cyclin K degradation.
CR8 is a potent inhibitor of CDK1/2/5/7/9.
