PRMT6
MS117 specifically targets Protein Arginine Methyltransferase 6 (PRMT6). It is a potent, irreversible covalent inhibitor that binds to the active site of the enzyme with an IC50 of 18 nM. It exhibits moderate selectivity, being 6-fold more selective for PRMT6 over PRMT1 (IC50 = 0.1 uM) and PRMT8 (IC50 = 0.11 uM). Its covalent nature ensures prolonged target engagement and sustained inhibition of PRMT6 methyltransferase activity. |

| ln Vitro |
In a time-dependent way, MS117 (Compound 4) suppresses the activity of PRMT6 methyltransferase[1]. When compared to PRMT1 (IC50 = 0.1 ± 0.025 µM) and PRMT8 (IC50 = 0.11 ± 0.01 µM), MS117 (Compound 4) exhibits moderate selectivity (6-fold) for PRMT6 [1].
In vitro, MS117 (Compound 4) inhibits PRMT6 methyltransferase activity in a time-dependent manner, as expected for an irreversible covalent inhibitor. It demonstrates an IC50 of 18 nM in a biochemical assay and shows moderate selectivity over other PRMT family members. This inhibition leads to changes in the methylation status of PRMT6 substrates, ultimately affecting gene expression and having a potential impact on cancer cell viability. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo efficacy data for MS117 is not explicitly detailed in the provided summaries. As a first-in-class covalent inhibitor, it is expected to be used in xenograft mouse models to evaluate its anti-tumor activity in PRMT6-dependent cancers. The ability to be formulated for in vivo use (as indicated by solubility data) suggests it has the potential to be an active tool for in vivo pharmacology.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
For a cell-free system, purified recombinant PRMT6 enzyme and a radiolabeled methyl donor, 3H-S-adenosyl-L-methionine (3H-SAM), are incubated with a suitable protein or peptide substrate (e.g., histone H4 peptide). The reaction is terminated, and the incorporation of radioactive methyl groups into the substrate is measured by scintillation counting. The compound is pre-incubated with the enzyme to assess its inhibitory activity and to confirm the time-dependent nature of the inhibition.
|
| Cell Assay |
In cellular assays, cancer cell lines (e.g., triple-negative breast cancer cells) are treated with various concentrations of MS117. Cell viability is measured after 48-72 hours using an MTT or CellTiter-Glo assay to determine an IC50. Target engagement and efficacy are assessed by Western blotting of cell lysates using a specific antibody that detects the methylation mark generated by PRMT6 (e.g., H3R2me2a). A decrease in the specific methylation mark indicates successful on-target activity in cells.

| Animal Protocol |
While a specific animal study protocol is not provided, the compound's solubility data (≥ 2.5 mg/mL in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline) indicates its suitability for intravenous (IV) or intraperitoneal (IP) injection. A typical protocol would involve administering MS117 by IP injection daily or every other day to mice bearing subcutaneous tumor xenografts. Tumor volume is measured with calipers to assess growth inhibition.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Detailed ADME (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, and Excretion) data for MS117 is not provided. The compound is soluble in DMSO (100 mg/mL), and formulations for in vivo injection have been developed, as detailed in the solubility data. Its chemical structure containing an acrylamide warhead indicates that it acts as a covalent inhibitor, potentially leading to a long residence time on its target in vivo.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Specific toxicology data for MS117 is not presented. The compound is a research tool for studying PRMT6 biology. As a first-in-class covalent inhibitor, its toxicity profile is not fully characterized. The primary focus of its use is to validate PRMT6 as a therapeutic target. While not formally in clinical trials, its use provides proof-of-concept for targeting PRMT6 with covalent inhibitors for therapeutic intervention.

| Additional Infomation |
PRMT6 is an arginine methyltransferase that catalyzes the asymmetric dimethylation of histone H3 at arginine 2 (H3R2me2a), which represses transcription. It is overexpressed in several cancers, including bladder, breast, and lung cancers, and is associated with poor patient prognosis. MS117 is the first irreversible covalent inhibitor developed for PRMT6. Its covalent mechanism provides a powerful tool for cellular and in vivo target validation studies in the field of cancer epigenetics.
