Description
EPZ5676 | 27625-1 | Gentaur US, UK & Europe Disrtribition
Category: Methyltransferase/Inhibitors / Activators
Application: N/A
Background: EPZ5676 is a potent inhibitor of DOT1L histone methyltransferase that, according to X-ray crystallographic analysis, occupies the S-adenosyl methionine (SAM) binding pocket of DOT1L and induces conformational changes in DOT1L resulting in the opening of a hydrophobic pocket beyond the amino acid portion of SAM. EPZ5676 has been investigated for the treatment of MLL-rearranged leukemia in multiple studies where results have shown that EPZ5676 inhibits H3K79 methylation and the expression of MLL-fusion target gene and potently kills acute leukemia cell lines bearing MLL translocation.
Description: EPZ-5676 is an S-adenosyl methionine (SAM) competitive inhibitor of protein methyltransferase DOT1L with Ki of 80 pM.
