Description
BMS-8 is a small molecule inhibitor of the protein-protein interaction between programmed death protein 1 (PD-1) and its ligand programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) with an IC
50 value of 146 nM in a homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) binding assay.
Uses
BMS-8 is inhibitor of the PD-1/PD-L1 interaction by inducing PD-L1 dimerization through PD-1 interacting surface, binding at a hydrophobic cavity formed upon PD-L1 dimerization.
