“…To our delight, we observed that 3 considerably increased global tyrosine phosphorylation at 500 μM; however, we observed this increase to also be accompanied by a loss of the β-tubulin and GAPDH housekeeping proteins (Figure c). Additionally, upon using 3 in time-course experiments, we observed the increase in global tyrosine phosphorylation as early as 30 min, consistent with the previously observed rates of similar self-immolative compounds (Figure c,d) . Upon directly comparing 2 , 3 , 6 , and 7 , there was no effect on global phosphorylation observed for either 6 or 7 at 30 min or up to 180 min (Figures e and S3) further bolstering the model of an intracellular BDI being potentially responsible for the observed increase in global tyrosine phosphorylation.…”
