Paprotrain is a cell-permeable acrylonitrile compound that inhibits the kinesin-6 family member MKLP-2 (Mitotic kinesin-like protein 2, or KIF20A). Paprotrain has an IC50 against basal and microtubule-/MT-stimulated ATPase activity = 1.35 and 0.83 muM, respectively in a reversible, ATP-uncompetitive (Ki = 3.36 muM), and MT-noncompetitive (Ki = 1.6 muM) manner, with little effect against the ATPase activity of 12 other kinesins (≤20% inhibition at 50 muM), including the close related MKLP-1 and MPP1 (M-phase phosphoprotein 1). Paprotrain may act to inhibit cellular ARK-2 (Aurora B) and survivin anaphase centromere-to-spindle midzone relocation in HeLa cultures (50 muM for 8 h), but not MKLP-1- or Kif4-mediated PRC1 relocation, resulting in misaligned chromosomes (70% of total metaphase cells), multipolar spindles (14% of total metaphase cells), and eventual apoptosis.
