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).
