Synonyms: MG 149 | MG-149
Compound class:
Synthetic organic
Comment: MG148 is a derivative of anacardic acid. This compound is an inhibitor of K(lysine) acetyltransferase 5 (KAT5 aka Tip60) and K(lysine) acetyltransferase 8 (KAT8 aka HMOF) [2-3]. However, a 2017 article by Dahlin et al. suggests that MG148 non-specifically perturbs biological assays, bringing in to question its HAT inhibitor activity [1].
![]() 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. ✖ |
