Mechanism Of Action and Pharmacodynamic Effects ![]() |
BRD4770 is an analogue of the SAM (S-adenosyl methionine) mimetic, BIX-01338 [1-2]. SAM is a cofactor in the methylation reaction catalysed by histone lysine methyltransferases (HMTases or KMTs). BRD4770 reduces di- and tri- methylation levels of histone H3, most likely via inhibition of the KMT, EHMT2 (aka G9a or KMT1C), and induces cell senescence, but not apoptosis [2]. |
