Histone Demethylase

There are two classes of enzymes involved in histone methylation: methyltransferases and demethylases. While methyltransferases are responsible for establishing methylation patterns, demethylases are capable of removing methyl groups not only from histones but other proteins as well. Histone demethylases not only target methylated sites on histone tails but also interact with methylated sites on non-histone proteins, such as p53.

Histone lysine demethylases (KDMs) are of interest as drug targets due to their regulatory roles in chromatin organization and their tight associations with diseases including cancer and mental disorders.

JMJD1A (also named KDM3A) is a demethylasethat removes methyl from histone lysine H3K9. It plays important roles in various cellular processes, including spermatogenesis, energy metabolism, regulation of stem cell and gender display.

Jumonji domain-containing 3 (Jmjd3) has been identified as a histone demethylase, which specifically catalyzes the removal of methylation from H3K27me3.

    XL177A
    Inhibitor 99.60%
    XL177A is a covalent USP7 inhibitor that blocks the deubiquitinase activity of USP7. XL177A destabilizes non-canonical PRC1 complexes or KDM6A and reduces chromatin deposition of H2AK119Ub, thereby relieving the repression of neuronal differentiation programs. Meanwhile, XL177A also regulates the ELOF1-UVSSA-USP7-nuclear β-catenin axis, decreasing the transcription levels of related proteins and the accumulation of nuclear β-catenin. XL177A exerts antiviral effects by reducing the expression levels of coronavirus receptors, and exhibits inhibitory activity against APC-mutated colorectal cancer cells, neuroblastoma, and coronaviruses including SARS-CoV-2 variants. XL177A is mainly used in studies related to colorectal cancer, neuroblastoma, and coronavirus infections.
