Biochem/physiol Actions

SGC0946 is a potent and selective inhibitor of Histone H3-lysine79 (H3K79) methyltransferase DOT1L with an IC50 of 0.3 nM in a radioactive enzyme assay, and over 100-fold selectivity for DOT1L over other histone methyltransferases. In cell studies, SGC0946 reduces H3K79 dimethylation with an IC₅₀ of 2.6 nM in A431 cells and 8.8 nM in MCF10A cells. SGC0946 was found to selectively kills cells transformed with the MLL-AF9 fusion oncogene in an in vitro model of leukemia.
