• Beschreibung

  The methylation of lysine residues on histones plays a central role in determining euchromatin structure and gene expression. The histone methyltransferase (HMTase) G9a can mono- or dimethylate lysine 9 on histone 3 (H3), contributing to early embryogenesis, genomic imprinting, and lymphocyte development.^1,2,3 BIX01294 (hydrochloride hydrate) is a selective inhibitor of G9a HMTase (IC₅₀ = 1.7 μM).⁴ It less effectively inhibits the HMTase G9a-like protein (GLP; IC₅₀ = 38 μM) and has no effect on other known HMTases.⁴ BIX01294 has been used in combination with the calcium channel activator BayK8644 to facilitate the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells from somatic cells in vitro.⁵
