JQEZ5 is a potent and selective EZH2 lysine methyltransferase inhibitor. JQEZ5 SAM-competitively inhibits polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) with an IC50 of 80 nM. JQEZ5 has anti-tumor effects[1].
JQEZ5 inhibits enzymatic functionality of PRC2 with a biochemical IC50 of 80nM. JQEZ5 exhibits S-adenosyl methionine (SAM)-competitive inhibition of PRC2[1].
H661 cells treated with increasing concentrations of JQEZ5 demonstrate acutely reduced levels of H3K27me3 without affecting H3K27 mono- or di-methylation. JQEZ5 suppresses the proliferation of EZH2-overexpressing H661 and H522 cells after treatment for 4 days without affecting the proliferation of cell lines that were deemed insensitive to EZH2 knockdown[1].
JQEZ5 (75 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; daily; for 3 weeks) treatment exhibits rapid and pronounced tumor regression over the three week treatment course. And H3K27me3 levels are largely reduced with treatment further confirming the on-target effect of JQEZ5 in mice[1].
