Product Description
BIX-01338 is a novel and potent histone lysine methyltransferase G9a inhibitor with an IC50 value of 4.7µM. BIX01338 was discovered by high-throughput screening along with BIX0129434. Further research reveals that BIX01338 is a SAM (S-adenosylmethionine) inhibitor rather than a substrate competitive inhibitor like BIX01294.


BIX-01338 is a 2-(N-acyl)-aminobenzimidazole derivative that acts as a broad inhibitor of histone lysine methyltransferases (HMTases). It was identified from a high-throughput screen of 125,000 compounds targeting G9a HMTase. Unlike the specific inhibitor BIX-01294, BIX-01338 non-selectively impairs multiple HMTases including G9a, SUV39H1, PRMT1, GLP, ESET, and SET7/9. It competes with the cofactor S-adenosyl-methionine (SAM), explaining its broad activity. [1]
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
G9a (IC50=4.7 μM), SUV39H1(H320R) (IC50=1.16 μM), PRMT1 , GLP, ESET, SET7/9 (inhibited at 15 μM). [1]
ln Vitro
In enzyme assays, BIX-01338 inhibited G9a with an IC50 of 4.7 μM and SUV39H1(H320R) with an IC50 of 1.16 μM. It started to affect methylation activity of all tested HMTases at around 5 μM and neutralized almost all enzymes at 15 μM, as determined by mass spectrometry. The compound displayed competitive inhibition with SAM in Eadie-Hofstee analysis. [1]
In cellular assays, treatment of mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells with 3.3 μM BIX-01338 for 2 days resulted in no detectable differences in methylation states at H3K9 and H3K27 compared to mock-treated cells, as measured by quantitative mass spectrometry. No alterations were observed for H3K36 and H3K79 methylation either. Although the compound is known to enter mammalian cells, it did not reduce H3K9me2 levels in vivo. [1]
Enzyme Assay
The high-throughput screen used a DELFIA (dissociation enhanced lanthanide fluoroimmunoassay) with recombinant GST-G9a (amino acids 685-1000) fusion protein, biotinylated histone H3 peptide, and 20 μM SAM. The H3K9me2 reaction product was bound to neutravidin-coated 384-well microtiter plates and detected with an H3K9me2 antibody followed by europium-labeled secondary antibody. Hits were scored as reduction of europium signal below 65% of control. [1]
For dose-response assays, BIX-01338 was tested on G9a, SUV39H1(H320R), and PRMT1 using DELFIA. IC50 values were calculated. [1]
To determine mode of action, reaction kinetics were measured at varying SAM concentrations. Eadie-Hofstee plot analysis showed that BIX-01338 acts as a competitive inhibitor with respect to SAM. [1]
For mass spectrometry-based validation, HMTase reactions were performed with nonbiotinylated H3(1-20)-cys peptide (for G9a, SUV39H1, GLP, SET7/9) or H4(1-20)-cys (for PRMT1). Reactions were stopped by dilution with 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid. Peptides were separated by C18 reverse-phase HPLC coupled to mass spectrometers, and peak areas of 3+ and 4+ peptide ions were quantified against synthetic peptide standards. [1]
Cell Assay
Mouse ES cells (wild-type and G9a-deficient), mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), and human HeLa cells were treated with BIX-01338 at 3.3 μM for 2 days. Nuclear extracts were prepared, and histone H3 was isolated. After propionylation of lysines and carbamidomethylation of cysteines, tryptic digestion was performed. Peptides were separated by reverse-phase HPLC coupled to mass spectrometry. Quantification was performed by comparison of peak areas to external synthetic peptide standards containing the same posttranslational modifications. No changes in H3K9me2, H3K9me3, H3K9me1, H3K27me, H3K36me, or H3K79me were detected in BIX-01338-treated cells compared to mock-treated controls. [1]

Additional Infomation
BIX-01338 belongs to a class of inhibitors containing a 2-(N-acyl)-aminobenzimidazole backbone, which is also found in a number of biologically active molecules. It is related to BIX-01294 but acts broadly. The compound was identified from the Boehringer Ingelheim chemical library. Unlike BIX-01294, which specifically inhibits G9a, BIX-01338 is non-selective and competes with SAM. [1]
