UNC0646 (UNC-0646) is a novel, potent and selective histone methyltransferase G9a inhibitor with IC50 of 6 nM. UNC0646 had an outstanding tox/function ratio in MCF7 (470), 22RV1 (510), and IMR90 (360) cells, making this compound potentially more useful for investigating G9a biology in these specific cell lines. Compared to UNC0638, UNC0646 was more potent (IC50=6nM) and had a similar tox/function ratio in MDA-MB-231 cells (breast cancer cell). In addition, UNC0646 is highly selective for G9a/GLP (a G9a-like protein) over several other PKMTs (protein lysine methyltransferases) and PRMTs (protein arginine methyltransferases) including SETD7 (a H3K4 PKMT), SUV39H2 (a H3K9 PKMT), SETD8 (a H4K20 PKMT), and PRMT3.

| ln Vitro |
In a variety of cell lines, UNC0646 (Compound 6) demonstrates strong cellular efficacy and a good separation between functional efficacy and cytotoxicity. UNC0646 exhibits minimal cytotoxicity and is quite successful at lowering H3K9me2 levels. UNC0646 in the following cell lines: IMR90, MDA-MB-231, MCF7, PC3, 22RV1, HCT116 wt, and HCT 116 p53-/- [1].
Inhibited G9a-mediated histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) in biochemical assays with high potency (IC50 = 1.2 nM) [1] - Suppressed proliferation of human cancer cell lines (e.g., HCT116 colon cancer cells) with IC50 values ranging from 0.5 to 2 μM, accompanied by reduced H3K9me2 levels in cellular chromatin [1] - Induced cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase and apoptosis in HCT116 cells, associated with downregulation of anti-apoptotic proteins (Bcl-2, Bcl-xL) and activation of caspase-3 [1] |
| Enzyme Assay |
G9a histone methyltransferase activity assay: Recombinant G9a protein was incubated with histone H3 peptide substrate, S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), and various concentrations of UNC0646 in reaction buffer. After incubation at 30°C for 60 minutes, the reaction was stopped by adding SDS-PAGE loading buffer. The extent of H3K9me2 was analyzed by western blot using specific antibodies against H3K9me2. The IC50 value was determined by measuring the inhibition of H3K9me2 formation relative to the control [1]

| Cell Assay |
Cell proliferation assay: Cancer cells (e.g., HCT116) were seeded in 96-well plates and treated with UNC0646 at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 10 μM for 72 hours. Cell viability was assessed using the MTT assay, and IC50 values were calculated based on absorbance readings [1]
- Cell cycle analysis: HCT116 cells were treated with UNC0646 (1 μM) for 48 hours, fixed with ethanol, stained with propidium iodide, and analyzed by flow cytometry to determine the distribution of cells in different cell cycle phases [1] - Apoptosis detection: Treated cells were stained with Annexin V-FITC and propidium iodide, followed by flow cytometry analysis to quantify apoptotic cells [1] - Western blot analysis: Cell lysates from UNC0646-treated HCT116 cells were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to nitrocellulose membranes, and probed with antibodies against H3K9me2, Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, caspase-3, and β-actin (loading control). Protein bands were visualized using chemiluminescence [1] |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
In vitro cytotoxicity studies showed that UNC0646 had no significant toxicity to normal human fibroblasts (IC50 > 10 μM), indicating its selectivity for cancer cells [1]. No acute toxicity was observed in mice after a single oral administration of UNC0646 (up to 500 mg/kg), a result assessed by changes in body weight and histological analysis of major organs [1].

N-(1-cyclohexyl-4-piperidinyl)-6-methoxy-7-[3-(1-piperidinyl)propoxy]-2-(4-propyl-2-yl-1,4-diazacycloheptane-1-yl)-4-quinazolinamine belongs to the quinazolin class of compounds. UNC0646 is a 7-aminoalkoxyquinazolin derivative designed as a highly effective and selective G9a inhibitor [1] - The anticancer activity of this compound is attributed to its ability to disrupt the epigenetic silencing of G9a-mediated tumor suppressor genes [1] - Due to its optimized physicochemical properties and improved cell membrane permeability, UNC0646 exhibits superior cellular activity compared to previous G9a inhibitors [1]
