    Author's note: GNE-2861 is a potent and exquisitely kinase-selective Group II PAK inhibitor, and to the best of my knowledge, it is the most selective inhibitor for this target group reported in the...

    Cellular Use Rating
    This is the best available probe for group II PAKs (4,5,6). The disconnect between enzyme (PAK4 IC50 8 nM) and cellular effect (effects observed at 10 uM & 50 uM) is highlighted by the authors as surprising...

    Cellular Use Rating
    GNE-2861 is a PAK4/5/6 inhibitor with isoform selectivity over group I PAKs (PAK1/2/3). The binding mode of the inhibitor is well investigated and gives an explanation of the partial isoform selectivity....
    This is a thoroughly characterized probe and the supporting information is of high quality. The disconnect between in vitro and cellular potency, while potentially explicable and consistent with PAK4...
