Bioactivity | UNC1215 is a potent and selective inhibitor for the methyllysine (Kme) reading domain function of L3MBTL3 with a Kd value of 120 nM and an IC50 of 40 nM. UNC1215 has the potential to treat malignant brain tumor. | ||||||||||||
Invitro | UNC1215 binds L3MBTL3 with a d of 120 nM, competitively displacing mono- or dimethyllysine-containing peptides, and is greater than 50-fold more potent toward L3MBTL3 than other members of the MBT family while also demonstrating selectivity against more than 200 other reader domains examined. X-ray crystallography identified a unique 2:2 polyvalent mode of interaction between UNC1215 and L3MBTL3. In cells, UNC1215 is nontoxic and directly binds L3MBTL3 via the Kme-binding pocket of the MBT domains. UNC1215 increases the cellular mobility of GFP-L3MBTL3 fusion proteins, and point mutants that disrupt the Kme-binding function of GFP-L3MBTL3 phenocopy the effects of UNC1215 on localization[1]. | ||||||||||||
