The ability of the obtained compounds to interact with the binding groove of the X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein baculovirus inhibitor of apoptosis protein repeat (XIAP BIR3) domain was examined by a fluorescence polarization assay, while their potential to induce autoubiquitination followed by proteasomal degradation of cellular IAP1 was examined using the MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line. This evidence concerns the gene BIRC3 and breast cancer.
