SERP Comments:
GSK481 is a remarkably potent and selective inhibitor of RIPK1 that is suitable to interrogate this target in cells. On the other hand, it may not be suitable for in vivo use, as RIPK1 orthologs show significant divergence between primates and nonprimates that can lead to large binding differences for type I inhibitors like GSK481. Indeed, relative to the human and monkey RIPK1 orthologs, the affinity of GSK481 was at least 100x weaker in binding assays for rat, minipig, dog, rabbit and mouse orthologs of RIPK1.

SERP Comments:
Despite being highly selective and potent, GSK481 should only be used as chemical probe in cells.
