Function[SMYD3_HUMAN] Histone methyltransferase. Specifically methylates 'Lys-4' and 'Lys-5' of histone H3, inducing di- and tri-methylation, but not monomethylation. Plays an important role in transcriptional activation as a member of an RNA polymerase complex. Binds DNA containing 5'-CCCTCC-3' or 5'-GAGGGG-3' sequences.[1] [2] Publication Abstract from PubMedWe report herein the discovery of isoxazole amides as potent and selective SET and MYND Domain-Containing Protein 3 (SMYD3) inhibitors. Elucidation of the structure-activity relationship of the high-throughput screening (HTS) lead compound 1 provided potent and selective SMYD3 inhibitors. The SAR optimization, cocrystal structures of small molecules with SMYD3, and mode of inhibition (MOI) characterization of compounds are described. The synthesis and biological and pharmacokinetic profiles of compounds are also presented.
