PRMT5-IN-11 demonstrates potent structure-dependent inhibition against the protein methyltransferase PRMT5:MEP50 complex at submicromolar concentrations.
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].
MRTX9768 hydrochloride is a potent, orally active PRMT5 inhibitor. MRTX9768 hydrochloride is a synthetic lethal-based inhibitor binding the PRMT5-MTA complex[1]. MRTX9768 inhibits SDMA and cell proliferation in HCT116 MTAP-del cells (SDMA IC50 3 nM; prolif. IC50 11 nM) with marked selectivity over HCT116 MTAP-WT cells (SDMA IC50 544 nM; prolif. IC50 861 nM)[1].MRTX9768 selectively targets MTAP CDKN2A-deleted tumors[2][1]. In xenograft studies, oral administration of MRTX9768 demonstrates dose-dependent inhibition of SDMA in MTAP-del tumors, with less SDMA modulation observed in bone marrow[1]. [1]. Christopher R.
