GSK3368715, a potent inhibitor of type I protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMT), could inhibit PRMT1, 3, 4, 6 and 8 with Kiapp vaules ranging from 1.5 to 81 nM.
GSK3368715 is an orally active, reversible, and S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) uncompetitive type I protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) inhibitor (IC50s: 3.1 nM (PRMT1), 48 nM (PRMT3), 1148 nM (PRMT4), 5.7 nM (PRMT6), 1.7 nM (PRMT8)). It has strong anti-cancer activity.
PRMT5-IN-19 (Compound 41) is a potent orally active PRMT5 inhibitor, exhibiting selectivity towards the SAM-binding pocket of PRMT5 with IC50 values of 23.9 nM (radioactive biochemical assay) and 47 nM (AlphaLISA assay). It effectively blocks methyltransferase activity and demonstrates high specificity against other PRMTs and PKMTs. PRMT5-IN-19 exerts anti-proliferative effects through the induction of apoptosis and holds potential in cancer-related research [1].
Furamidine is a cell-permeable, selective inhibitor of protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1). Furamidine binds to strings of AT base pair sequences in DNA′s minor groove. Furamidine targets the enzyme active site and is primarily competitive with t
Furamidine is also a selective and cell-permeable protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) inhibitor with an IC50 of 9.4 μM. Furamidine is selective for PRMT1 over PRMT5, PRMT6, and PRMT4 (CARM1) (IC50s of 166 μM, 283 μM, and >400 μM, respectively). Furamidine (DB75) is abisbenzamidine derivative and an antiparasite agent. Furamidine is a potent, reversible and competitive tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP-1) inhibitor. Inhibition of TDP-1 by Furamidine is effective both with single- and double-stranded DNA substrates but is slightly stronger with the duplex DNA.
