Function

EHMT2_HUMAN Histone methyltransferase that specifically mono- and dimethylates 'Lys-9' of histone H3 (H3K9me1 and H3K9me2, respectively) in euchromatin. H3K9me represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional repression by recruiting HP1 proteins to methylated histones. Also mediates monomethylation of 'Lys-56' of histone H3 (H3K56me1) in G1 phase, leading to promote interaction between histone H3 and PCNA and regulating DNA replication. Also weakly methylates 'Lys-27' of histone H3 (H3K27me). Also required for DNA methylation, the histone methyltransferase activity is not required for DNA methylation, suggesting that these 2 activities function independently. Probably targeted to histone H3 by different DNA-binding proteins like E2F6, MGA, MAX and/or DP1. May also methylate histone H1. In addition to the histone methyltransferase activity, also methylates non-histone proteins: mediates dimethylation of 'Lys-373' of p53/TP53. Also methylates CDYL, WIZ, ACIN1, DNMT1, HDAC1, ERCC6, KLF12 and itself.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

The discovery and optimization of a novel series of G9a/GLP (EHMT2/1) inhibitors are described. Starting from known G9a/GLP inhibitor 5, efforts to explore the structure-activity relationship and optimize drug properties led to a novel compound 13, the side chain of which was converted to tetrahydroazepine. Compound 13 showed increased G9a/GLP inhibitory activity compared with compound 5. In addition, compound 13 exhibited improved human ether-a-go-go related gene (hERG) inhibitory activity over compound 5 and also improved pharmacokinetic profile in mice (oral bioavailability: 17 to 40%). Finally, the co-crystal structure of G9a in complex with compound 13 provides the basis for the further development of tetrahydroazepine-based G9a/GLP inhibitors.
