Synonyms: STM-2457
Compound class:
Synthetic organic
Comment: STM2457 is a small molecule inhibitor of the methyltransferase activity of METTL3 [1]. X-ray crystallography shows that STM2457 binds to the S-adenosyl methionine (SAM) binding site within the enzyme's catalytic domain. In vivo work provides evidence that METTL3 inhibition is a potential therapeutic strategy against cancers, including AML.
![]() Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |
