| Targets |
ssK36 TFA targets the SET domain of protein lysine methyltransferase SETD2. This enzyme is responsible for the trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 36 (H3K36me3) in humans, a key epigenetic mark associated with active transcription elongation, mRNA splicing, and DNA damage repair. As a supersubstrate peptide, it acts as a highly sensitive biochemical probe for the catalytic mechanism of SETD2. It is designed to have a dramatically enhanced methylation rate, enabling detailed kinetic studies.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In non-cellular biochemical assays, ssK36 TFA can be methylated by SETD2 at a rate more than 100 times faster than the natural H3K36 substrate, making it an extremely sensitive and efficient tool for high-throughput screening and kinetic analyses. It is also used in peptide binding assays to characterize the interaction of SETD2 with its substrates. No activity in cellular or in vivo systems is reported.
|
| ln Vivo |
No in vivo activity data are available for ssK36 TFA. The peptide is specifically designed and utilized as an in vitro biochemical tool for enzyme characterization and high-throughput screening, not for use in living animals. As a peptide, it would be rapidly degraded in serum and is not suitable for in vivo pharmacokinetic or efficacy studies.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
For non-cellular assays, a standard SETD2 methyltransferase activity assay is used. The protocol involves: 50 uL reaction mixture in 96-well plates containing 25 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 5 mM DTT, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.1% Tween 20, 5 uM recombinant SETD2, 1 uM ssK36 TFA, and 5 uM [3H]-SAM (S-adenosyl methionine). After incubation at 30degC for 60 min, the reaction is stopped with 10 uL of 5% TCA. The mixture is spotted onto P81 filter paper, washed, and counted in a scintillation counter. For inhibitor studies, the compound is pre-incubated with the enzyme.

Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).
