MY-1B is a covalent inhibitor of the RNA Methyltransferase NSUN2 (IC50: 1.3 μM). MY-1B stereoselectively ligands active-site cysteine residues (C271) of NSUN2. MY-1B can stereoselectively and covalently bind to PSME1, disrupting the proteasome regulatory complex and downregulating the presentation of specific MHC-I subtypes.

    Description

    MY-1B is a covalent inhibitor of the RNA Methyltransferase NSUN2 (IC50: 1.3 μM). MY-1B stereoselectively ligands active-site cysteine residues (C271) of NSUN2. MY-1B can stereoselectively and covalently bind to PSME1, disrupting the proteasome regulatory complex and downregulating the presentation of specific MHC-I subtypes[1][2][3].

    In Vitro

    MY-1B (5 or 20 µM, 3 h) stereoselectively and site-specifically engage C271 of NSUN2 in the human prostate cancer cell line[3].
    MY-1B (2.5-20 µM, 0-2000 s) inhibits NSUN2 methyltransferase activity with Kinact/Ki values of 67±15 M[1].
    MY-1B (6.25-100 μM, 2 h) serves as a stereo- and site-selective covalent ligand for C1113 of DCAF1 in HEK293T 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 (5.73 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 (5.73 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.

    • 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.
