5-Methyl-2'-deoxycytidine in single-stranded DNA can act in cis to signal de novo DNA methylation[1][2].
DNMT3A-IN-2 (compound 2) is a potent and allosteric inhibitor of DNMT3A. DNMT3A-IN-2 inhibits DNMT3A activity by disrupting protein-protein interactions. DNMT3A-IN-2 induces apoptosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell lines. DNMT3A-IN-2 induces differentiation of distinct AML cell lines including cells with mutated DNMT3A R882[1].
Lomeguatrib is a O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) inhibitor, with IC50s of 9 nM in cell-free assay and ∼6 nM in MCF-7 cells.
DNMT-IN-1 is a potent DNMT inhibitor with an EC50 value of 3.2 µM. DNMT-IN-1 shows antiproliferative active[1].
BamHI Methyltransferase is a DNA methyltransferase which modifies the underlined cytosine (GGATCC)[1].
Benzyl selenocyanate is a chemopreventive agent for various chemically induced tumors in animal models at both the initiation and postinitiation stages. Benzyl selenocyanate is an inhibitor of DNA (cytosine-5)-methyltransferase (Mtase), with an with an IC50 of 8.4 µM[1].
Nanaomycin A is the first selective DNMT3B inhibitor with an IC50 of 500 nM. Nanaomycin A, a quinone antibiotics, reactivates silenced tumor suppressor genes in human cancer cells[1]. Nanaomycin A inhibits in vitro growth of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum with an IC80 value of 33.1 nM[2].
Decitabine (NSC 127716) is a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor commonly used to treat myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
5-Fluoro-2'-deoxycytidine, a fluoropyrimidine nucleoside analogue, is a DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitor. 5-Fluoro-2'-deoxycytidine is a tumor-selective prodrug of the potent thymidylate synthase inhibitor 5-fluoro-2′-dUMP[1][2].
AluI Methyltransferase (AluI) is a methyltransferase used as the interference enzymes to investigate the selectivity[1].
Laccaic acid A is a orally active and DNA-competitive inhibitor of DNA methyltransferase 1 (Dnmt1) (Ki=310 nM; IC50=650 nM). Laccaic acid A has stronger Dnmt1 inhibitory effect than SG-1027 (HY-13962). Laccaic acid A combined with Phenethyl isothiocyanate has a strong synergistic effect on colorectal cancer[1][2].
(R)-GSK-3685032 is the R-enantiomer of GSK-3685032. GSK-3685032 is a non-time-dependent, noncovalently, first-in-class reversible DNMT1-selective inhibitor, with an IC50 of 0.036 μM. GSK-3685032 induces robust loss of DNA methylation, transcriptional activation, and cancer cell growth inhibition[1][2].
GSK-3685032 is a non-time-dependent, noncovalently, first-in-class reversible DNMT1-selective inhibitor, whit an IC50 of 0.036 μM. GSK-3685032 induces robust loss of DNA methylation, transcriptional activation and cancer cell growth inhibition[1].
CM-272 (CM272) is a novel potent, selective and reversible dual inhibitor of G9a/DNMTs with IC50 of 8 nM and 382 nM for G9a and DNMT1, respectively; also inhibits DNMT3A/3B/GLP with IC50 of 85/1,200/2 nM, respectively; inhibits cell proliferation and promotes apoptosis in different haematological neoplasias (AML, ALL and DLBCL); significantly prolongs survival of AML, ALL and DLBCL xenogeneic models.
5-Azacytidine is a nucleoside analogue of cytidine that specifically inhibits DNA methylation by trapping DNA methyltransferases.
RSC133 exhibits dual activity by inhibiting histone deacetylase and DNA methyltransferase. RSC133 effectively facilitates reprogramming of human somatic cells to pluripotent stem cells and supports the maintenance of an undifferentiated state of human pluripotent stem cells[1].
