EZH2
EZH2 (Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2). |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
NUCC-0226272 (0.01-10 μM; 5 days) has antiproliferative effects on LNCaP and 22Rv1 cells[1]. NUCC-0226272 (10 μM; 6 days) showed strong degradation of EZH2, reduction of the PRC2 component SUZ12, and decreased H3K27me3 levels in C4-2B cells[1].
In biochemical assays, NUCC-0226272 induces potent degradation of EZH2 protein. The compound exhibits significant anti‑proliferative effects in cancer cells that depend on EZH2 activity. The molecular formula is C₆₇H₉1N₉O₈S and the molecular weight is 1182.56. |
| ln Vivo |
Pharmacokinetic Parameters of NUCC-0226272 in C57Bl/6 mouse[1]. IP (4 mg/kg) Tmax (h) 0.83 Cmax (ng/mL) 3650 AUClast (min·ng/mL) 12777389 t1/2 (h) 3.46 CL (mL/min/kg) 3.11 Vss (L/kg) 3.11
This entry is not available. As an EZH2 degrader, NUCC-0226272 is expected to reduce the global levels of H3K27me3 (histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation), the repressive epigenetic mark deposited by EZH2. This leads to derepression of tumor suppressor genes and inhibition of cancer cell proliferation. The compound is a research agent for cancer studies, particularly in EZH2‑dependent cancers such as lymphomas and certain solid tumors. |
| Enzyme Assay |
General cell‑free assay for EZH2 PROTAC ternary complex formation: Use TR‑FRET or AlphaLISA to detect the interaction between EZH2 (as part of PRC2 complex) and the E3 ligase (e.g., CRBN or VHL) in the presence of NUCC-0226272. Purify PRC2 complex containing EZH2, EED, and SUZ12. Label EZH2 with a donor fluorophore and the E3 ligase ligand with an acceptor. Add varying concentrations of NUCC-0226272 (0.1 nM to 10 uM). Measure the FRET signal to determine the EC₅0 for ternary complex formation, indicating PROTAC‑mediated bridging.

| Cell Assay |
General cellular degradation protocol for EZH2: Seed EZH2‑dependent cancer cells (e.g., lymphoma cell lines SU‑DHL‑4 or KARPAS‑422) in 6‑well plates. Treat cells with NUCC-0226272 at concentrations ranging from 0.1 nM to 1 uM for 24‑72 hours. Harvest cells, lyse, and quantify protein. Perform SDS‑PAGE and Western blot with anti‑EZH2, anti‑H3K27me3, and anti‑GAPDH (loading control). Calculate DC₅0 and Dmax values. Assess cell viability using CellTiter‑Glo assay after 72 hours. For rescue experiments, co‑treat with the proteasome inhibitor MG132 (10 uM, 4‑6 hours) to confirm proteasome‑dependent degradation.
|
| Animal Protocol |
General animal protocol for EZH2 PROTACs: Establish subcutaneous xenografts of EZH2‑dependent cancer cells (e.g., SU‑DHL‑4 lymphoma or EZH2‑mutant cancer cells) in immunocompromised mice (NOD/SCID). When tumors reach ~150 mm3, randomize mice (n=8/group). Administer NUCC-0226272 via intraperitoneal injection at doses of 5‑30 mg/kg daily or every other day for 2‑3 weeks. Measure tumor volume twice weekly. At study end, harvest tumors for Western blot (EZH2, H3K27me3), qPCR (target gene expression), and immunohistochemistry (Ki‑67, cleaved caspase‑3).

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
General pharmacokinetic protocol for NUCC-0226272: Administer the PROTAC to male Sprague‑Dawley rats via intravenous (IV, 1 mg/kg) and intraperitoneal (IP, 10 mg/kg) routes. Formulate in appropriate vehicle (e.g., 10% DMSO, 50% PEG400, 40% saline). Collect blood samples at 0.083, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 hours. Analyze plasma concentrations by validated LC‑MS/MS method. Calculate PK parameters (Cmax, Tmax, AUC, t1/2, clearance, volume of distribution). PROTACs typically have high molecular weights (>1000 Da) and may exhibit low oral bioavailability.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
General toxicity studies for NUCC-0226272: Perform a 14‑day repeated dose toxicity study in mice or rats. Administer NUCC-0226272 intraperitoneally at doses of 10, 30, and 100 mg/kg/day. Monitor body weight, food consumption, and clinical signs daily. At termination, collect blood for hematology (complete blood count) and serum chemistry (ALT, AST, BUN, creatinine, ALP). Perform gross necropsy and collect major organs (liver, kidney, spleen, lung, heart, gastrointestinal tract) for histopathological examination. Assess potential off‑target degradation by proteomics analysis.

| Additional Infomation |
NUCC-0226272 is a potent PROTAC that targets EZH2 for degradation. The compound has a molecular weight of 1182.56 and is stored as a powder at ‑20degC. EZH2 is a well‑validated oncology target, and PROTAC‑mediated degradation offers an advantage over enzymatic inhibition by removing both catalytic and non‑catalytic functions of the protein. The compound has the potential for cancer research, particularly in hematological malignancies and solid tumors with EZH2 activating mutations or overexpression.
