    Description

    UNC0638 selectively inhibits G9a and GLP histone methyltransferase activity with IC50s of less than 15 nM and 19 nM, respectively. UNC0638 has anti-FMDV (foot-and-mouth disease virus) and anti-VSV (vesicular stomatitis virus) activities.

    In Vitro

    UNC0638, an inhibitor of G9a and GLP with excellent potency and selectivity over a wide range of epigenetic and non-epigenetic targets.The Ki of UNC0638 is determined to be 3.0±0.05 nM (n=2). Consistent with this, the Morrison Ki for UNC0638 is 3.7±0.2 nM (n=3). The selectivity of UNC0638 over a wide range of epigenetic targets is evaluated. Notably, UNC0638 is inactive against other H3K9 (SUV39H1 and SUV39H2), H3K27 (EZH2), H3K4 (SETD7, MLL and SMYD3), H3K79 (DOT1L) and H4K20 (SETD8) methyltransferases, as well as PRDM1, PRDM10 and PRDM12. In addition, UNC0638 is inactive against protein arginine methyltransferases PRMT1 and PRMT3, and HTATIP, a histone acetyltransferase. Of note, UNC0638 has weak but measurable activity against JMJD2E (IC50=4,500±1,100 nM), a Jumonji protein demethylase and DNA methyltransferase DNMT1 (IC50=107,000±6,000 nM). Nevertheless, the selectivity of UNC0638 for G9a and GLP over JMJD2E is >200-fold, and selectivity for G9a and GLP over DNMT1 is >5,000-fold[1]. UNC0638 is a type of small molecule that can specifically inhibit the enzyme activity of histone methyltransferase EHMT and reduce the H3K9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) levels in cells[2].

    In Vivo:

    Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

    For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
    To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
    The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

    • Protocol 1

      Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

      Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.90 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

      Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
    • Protocol 2

      Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

      Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.90 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

      Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

    Kinase Assay
    [1]

    The enzymatic reactions are conducted in duplicate at room temperature for 1 hour in a 50 μL mixture containing PKMT assay buffer, substrate coated plate, 10 M SAM, a HMT enzyme (EZH2 (800 ng/reaction), MLL (300 ng/reaction), PRMT1 (0.5 ng/reaction), SUV39H1 (75 ng/reaction) and UNC0638 (0-1.25 μM). After enzymatic reactions, 100 μL of first antibody is added to each well and the plate is incubated at room temperature for an additional 1 h. 100 μL of secondary antibody is added to each well and the plate is incubated at room temperature for an additional 30 min. 100 μL of developer reagents are added to wells and luminescence is measured using a BioTek SynergyTM 2 microplate reader. Enzyme activity assays are performed in duplicates at each concentration. The luminescence data are analyzed using the computer software, Graphpad Prism[1].

    Cell Assay
    [1]

    MDA-MB-231, PC3, HCT116 cells are cultured in RPMI with 10% FBS, 22RV1 cells in alphaMEM and 10% FBS, MCF7 and IMR90 cells in DMEM with 10% FBS. Cells are grown in the presence or absence of UNC0638 (10 nM, 100 nM, 1 μM, 10 μM, and 100 μM ) for stated amount of time. The media is removed and replaced with DMEM 10% FBS without phenol red supplemented with 1mg/mL of MTT and incubated for 1-2 h. Live cells reduce yellow MTT to purple formazan. The resulting formazan is solubilized in acidified isopropanol and 1% Triton and absorbance measured at 570 nm, corrected for 650 nm background[1].

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
