ABOUT
TBK1/IKKε inhibitor
BX795 is a potent inhibitor of the noncanonical IkB kinases TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) and IkappaB kinase-epsilon (IKKε) [1]. TBK1 and IKKε play a central role in the innate immune response. Notably, these noncanonical IkappaB kinase homologs are essential components of the interferon regulatory factor (IRF) signaling pathway.
Mode of action:
BX795 inhibits the catalytic activity of TBK1/IKKε by blocking their phosphorylation. BX795, an aminopyrimidine compound, was developed as an inhibitor of 3-phosphoinositide-dependent kinase 1 (PDK1) [1].
Studies have demonstrated that BX795 is a potent inhibitor of the IKK-related kinases, TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1), and IKKε, and hence of IRF3 activation and IFN-β production [2, 3].
Key features:
- A potent inhibitor of TBK1 and IKK-ε

Details
TBK1 /IKKε
TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1; also known as NF-κB activating kinase/NAK and T2K) is a multifunctional serine/threonine-protein kinase that belongs to the non-canonical IκB kinase family, together with its close homolog IkB kinase ε (IKKε, also known as IKKi). TBK1 plays an important role in the regulation of many cellular processes, including innate immunity, inflammatory cytokine production, autophagy, mitochondrial metabolism, and cell survival/proliferation [1].
In innate immune signaling, TBK1 acts as an integrator of receptor-mediated pathogen detection signals and as an interferon (IFN) response modulator [2, 3]. Viral, bacterial, or tumor DNA activate STING (stimulator of interferon genes protein), which triggers TBK1 signaling and results in the activation of the transcription factors IRF3 (IFN regulatory factor 3)and IRF7 to induce the expression of type-I IFNs. Additionally, TBK1 plays a role in other signaling pathways triggered by other innate adaptors, such as MAVS (mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein) and TRIF (TIR-domain-containing adapter-inducing interferon-β).
