1. AMI-1

AMI-1 is a potent, cell-permeable and reversible inhibitor of protein arginine N-methyltransferases (PRMTs), with IC50s of 8.8 μM and 3.0 μM for human PRMT1 and yeast-Hmt1p, respectively. AMI-1 exerts PRMTs inhibitory effects by blocking peptide-substrate binding.

    Description

    AMI-1 is a potent, cell-permeable and reversible inhibitor of protein arginine N-methyltransferases (PRMTs), with IC50s of 8.8 μM and 3.0 μM for human PRMT1 and yeast-Hmt1p, respectively. AMI-1 exerts PRMTs inhibitory effects by blocking peptide-substrate binding[1].

    IC50 & Target

    IC50: 8.8 μM (PRMT1), 3.0 μM (yeast-Hmt1p)[1]

    In Vitro

    AMI-1 can inhibit the in vitro methylation reactions performed by all five recombinantly active PRMTs (PRMT1, -3, -4, and -6 and Hmt1p)[2].
    ? AMI-1 not only inhibits type I PRMTs (PRMT1, 3, 4 and 6) but also type II PRMT5[2].
    ? AMI-1 specifically inhibits arginine, but not lysine, methyltransferase activity in vitro and does not compete for the AdoMet binding site[3].
    ? AMI-1 inhibits methylation of GFP-Npl3 and cellular proteins[3].
    ? AMI-1 (0.6-2.4 mM; 48-96 hours) inhibits the cell viability of sarcoma in S180 and U2OS cells in a time-dependent and dose-dependent manner in vitro[4].
    ? AMI-1 (1.2-2.4 mM; 48-72 hours) reduces S180 cell viability through the induction of cell apoptosis[4].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    Cell Viability Assay[4]

    Cell Line: S180 cells, U2OS cells
    Concentration: 0.6 mM, 1.2 mM, 2.4 mM
    Incubation Time: 48 hours, 72 hours, 96 hours
    Result: Inhibited the cell viability.

    Apoptosis Analysis[4]

    Cell Line: S180 cells
    Concentration: 1.2 mM, 2.4 mM
    Incubation Time: 48 hours, 72 hours

    In Vivo

    AMI-1 (0.5 mg; intratumorally; daily; for 7 days) inhibits S180 viability in vivo[4].
    ? AMI-1 (0.5 mg; intratumorally; daily; for 7 days) downregulates PRMT5 but does not regulate the expression of PRMT7 in a tumor xenograft model[4].
    ? AMI-1 (0.5 mg; intratumorally; daily; for 7 days) decreases the levels of H4R3me2s and H3R8me2s in a tumor xenograft model[4].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    Animal Model: 6-7 weeks old male Kunming mice (18-22 g), with S180 cells xenograft[4]

    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 (4.56 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 (4.56 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.

    For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
    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.

    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.
