methyl transfer active site, showing, in addition, that the EZH2 isolated crystal structure is capable of being used in molecular screening studies. Altogether, this work provides a successful molecular model that will help in the identification of new specific EZH2 inhibitors and identify a novel class of tambjamine-derived EZH2 inhibitors with promising activities for their use in cancer treatment
结合计算模型,从头化合物合成,以及体外和细胞实验,我们进行了对zeste同源2(EZH2)组蛋白赖氨酸N-甲基转移酶增强剂的抑制研究。该酶是PRC2复合物的重要催化组分,其改变与不同的癌症有关。我们在这里介绍几种在体外具有低微摩尔的tambjamine启发的衍生物导致癌细胞中组蛋白3三甲基化水平显着降低的活性。我们证明了在甲基转移活性位点的结合,此外,表明,EZH2分离的晶体结构能够用于分子筛选研究。总而言之,这项工作提供了一个成功的分子模型,将有助于鉴定新的特异性EZH2抑制剂,并鉴定出一类新的坦布胺衍生的EZH2抑制剂,它们在癌症治疗中具有广阔的应用前景。
