General description

A cell-permeable (bis-benzylidene)piperidinone compound that acts as a selective inhibitor against CARM1/PRMT4 arginine methyltransferase activity (IC50 = 7.1 µM with PABP1 as substrate). It inhibits PRMT3 only at much higher concentrations (by 70% and 62% with 100 µM inhibitor using NPL3 or rpS2 as substrate, respectively), exhibiting little activity against PRMT1, PRMT5, PRMT6 (IC50 >100 µM), or four HKMTs (<20% inhibition against DOTL1, G9a, SET7, or Suv39H1 with 100 µM inhibitor). Shown to inhibit PSA promoter-mediated reporter transcription in LNCaP cells in a dose-dependent manner (by 74% and 97%, respectively, with 4 and 6 µM inhibitor).

Protein arginine methylation has been recognized as one of key posttranslational modifications for refined protein functions, mediated by protein arginine methyltransferases (Prmts). Coactivator-associated arginine methyltransferase (Carm1, also known as Prmt4) participates in various cellular events, such as cell survival, proliferation
