WEE1 Inhibitor: Clinical Development [PDF]
Abstract Purpose of Review WEE1 inhibitor has been shown to potential chemotherapy or radiotherapy sensitivity in preclinical models, particularly in p53-mutated or deficient cancer cells although not exclusively. Here, we review the clinical development of WEE1 inhibitor in combination with chemotherapy or radiotherapy ...

Upon DNA damage, complex transduction cascades are unleashed to locate, recognise and repair affected lesions. The process triggers a pause in the cell cycle until the damage is resolved. Even under physiologic conditions, this deliberate interruption of cell division is essential to ensure orderly DNA replication and chromosomal segregation.

Targeting WEE1 Kinase in Gynecological Malignancies [PDF]
WEE1 kinase is involved in the G2/M cell cycle checkpoint control and DNA damage repair. A functional G2/M checkpoint is crucial for DNA repair in cancer cells with p53 mutations since they lack a functional G1/S checkpoint. Targeted inhibition of WEE1 kinase may cause tumor cell apoptosis, primarily, in the p53-deficient tumor, via bypassing the G2/M ...

Development and Characterization of a Wee1 Kinase Degrader [PDF]
The G1/S cell cycle checkpoint is frequently dysregulated in cancer, leaving cancer cells reliant on a functional G2/M checkpoint to prevent excessive DNA damage. Wee1 regulates the G2/M checkpoint by phosphorylating CDK1 at Tyr15 to prevent mitotic entry.

Targeting WEE1 Kinase in Cancer
Trends in Pharmacological Sciences, 2016WEE1 kinase plays a crucial role in the G2-M cell-cycle checkpoint arrest for DNA repair before mitotic entry. Normal cells repair damaged DNA during G1 arrest; however, cancer cells often have a deficient G1-S checkpoint and depend on a functional G2-M checkpoint for DNA repair. WEE1 is expressed at high levels in various cancer types including breast

SIRT1 deacetylates WEE1 and sensitizes cancer cells to WEE1 inhibition
Nature Chemical Biology, 2023The cell-cycle checkpoint kinase WEE1 is emerging as a therapeutic target for cancer treatment. However, how its catalytic activity is regulated remains poorly understood, and reliable biomarkers for predicting response to WEE1 inhibitor remain to be identified.

A WEE1 homologue from Arabidopsis thaliana
Planta, 2002Little is known about the genes that regulate cyclinB-Cdc2 complexes at the G2/M transition of the plant cell cycle although in yeast and animals cdc25 and wee1 are central regulators of cdc2. Here we describe the isolation, by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), of a WEE1 cDNA (AtWEE1) in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh.
