| Description | Purity ≥98%. MW: 399.44. BRD9539 is a specific inhibitor of euchromatin histone methyltransferase G9a (EHMT2). EHMT2 catalyzes the methylation of lysine 9 on histone H3. BRD9539 inhibits EHMT2 with an IC50 of 6.3 μM. It also inhibits methyl transferase PRC2 with a similar IC50. It is the methyl-ester analogue of BRD4770. It is more potent than BRD4770 in enzyme assays but does not show activity in cell-based assays, probably due to impaired cell permeability compared to that of BRD4770. |
