CENP-VL1 inhibitors encompass a variety of chemical compounds that function through diverse mechanisms to impede the activity of this centromere-associated protein. Inhibition of cyclin-dependent kinases results in cell cycle arrest, preventing CENP-VL1 from effectively participating in cell division. Additionally, the use of compounds that modify chromatin structure through increased histone acetylation or reduced DNA methylation can lead to alterations in the chromosomal binding and function of CENP-VL1. These chromatin-modifying agents cause structural changes that can inhibit the proper association of CENP-VL1 with centromeric DNA, thus compromising its essential role in chromosome segregation during mitosis.
Furthermore, targeting specific kinases involved in the DNA damage response or mitotic spindle formation disrupts processes critical for the recruitment and function of CENP-VL1 at the centromere. Chemicals that induce DNA crosslinking or interfere with microtubule dynamics exert indirect effects on the centromere and associated proteins, including CENP-VL1. By destabilizing microtubule dynamics or inducing DNA damage, these compounds can interfere with the localization and function of CENP-VL1, which is crucial for maintaining genomic stability during cell division. Proteasome inhibitors and agents that reduce nucleotide pools also contribute to the indirect inhibition of CENP-VL1 by causing the accumulation of misfolded proteins or by impeding DNA replication, respectively, further substantiating the diverse array of mechanisms employed by CENP-VL1 inhibitors.
