H3 'Lys-4' methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation. Plays a central role in the transcriptional activation of genes such as collagenase or insulin. Recruited by IPF1/PDX-1 to the insulin promoter, leading to activate transcription. Has also methyltransferase activity toward non-histone proteins such as p53/TP53, TAF10, and possibly TAF7 by recognizing and binding the [KR]-[STA]-K in substrate proteins. Monomethylates 'Lys-189' of TAF10, leading to increase the affinity of TAF10 for RNA polymerase II. Monomethylates 'Lys-372' of p53/TP53, stabilizing p53/TP53 and increasing p53/TP53-mediated transcriptional activation. Publication Abstract from PubMed The histone methyltransferase SET7/9 methylates not only histone but also non-histone proteins as substrates, and therefore SET7/9 inhibitors are considered candidates for treatment of diseases. Previously, our group identified cyproheptadine, which is used clinically as a serotonin receptor antagonist or histamine receptor (H1) antagonist, as a novel scaffold of SET7/9 inhibitor. In this work, we focused on dibenzosuberene as a substructure of cyproheptadine, and synthesized derivatives with various functional groups. Among them, compound bearing a 2-hydroxy group showed the most potent activity. On the other hand, a 3-hydroxy group or other hydrophilic functional groups such as acetamide decreased the activity. Structural analysis clarified a rationale for the improved potency only by tightly restricted location and type of hydrophilic group. In addition, a SET7/9 loop, which was only partially visible in the complex with cyproheptadine, became more clearly visible in that with 2-hydroxycyproheptadine. These results are expected to be helpful for further structure-based development of SET7/9 inhibitors.
