Coactivator-associated arginine methyltransferase 1 with TP-064
Structural highlights
FunctionCARM1_HUMAN Methylates (mono- and asymmetric dimethylation) the guanidino nitrogens of arginyl residues in several proteins involved in DNA packaging, transcription regulation, pre-mRNA splicing, and mRNA stability. Recruited to promoters upon gene activation together with histone acetyltransferases from EP300/P300 and p160 families, methylates histone H3 at 'Arg-17' (H3R17me), forming mainly asymmetric dimethylarginine (H3R17me2a), leading to activate transcription via chromatin remodeling. During nuclear hormone receptor activation and TCF7L2/TCF4 activation, acts synergically with EP300/P300 and either one of the p160 histone acetyltransferases NCOA1/SRC1, NCOA2/GRIP1 and NCOA3/ACTR or CTNNB1/beta-catenin to activate transcription. During myogenic transcriptional activation, acts together with NCOA3/ACTR as a coactivator for MEF2C. During monocyte inflammatory stimulation, acts together with EP300/P300 as a coactivator for NF-kappa-B. Acts as coactivator for PPARG, promotes adipocyte differentiation and the accumulation of brown fat tissue. Plays a role in the regulation of pre-mRNA alternative splicing by methylation of splicing factors. Also seems to be involved in p53/TP53 transcriptional activation. Methylates EP300/P300, both at 'Arg-2142', which may loosen its interaction with NCOA2/GRIP1, and at 'Arg-580' and 'Arg-604' in the KIX domain, which impairs its interaction with CREB and inhibits CREB-dependent transcriptional activation. Also methylates arginine residues in RNA-binding proteins PABPC1, ELAVL1 and ELAV4, which may affect their mRNA-stabilizing properties and the half-life of their target mRNAs.[1] [2] Publication Abstract from PubMedProtein arginine methyltransferase (PRMT) 4 (also known as coactivator-associated arginine methyltransferase 1; CARM1) is involved in a variety of biological processes and is considered as a candidate oncogene owing to its overexpression in several types of cancer. Selective PRMT4 inhibitors are useful tools for clarifying the molecular events regulated by PRMT4 and for validating PRMT4 as a therapeutic target. Here, we report the discovery of TP-064, a potent, selective, and cell-active chemical probe of human PRMT4 and its co-crystal structure with PRMT4. TP-064 inhibited the methyltransferase activity of PRMT4 with high potency (half-maximal inhibitory concentration, IC50 < 10 nM) and selectivity over other PRMT family proteins, and reduced arginine dimethylation of the PRMT4 substrates BRG1-associated factor 155 (BAF155; IC50= 340 +/- 30 nM) and Mediator complex subunit 12 (MED12; IC50 = 43 +/- 10 nM). TP-064 treatment inhibited the proliferation of a subset of multiple myeloma cell lines, with affected cells arrested in G1 phase of the cell cycle. TP-064 and its negative control (TP-064N) will be valuable tools to further investigate the biology of PRMT4 and the therapeutic potential of PRMT4 inhibition.
