Biochem/physiol Actions
BAY-598 is a potent, peptide-competitive chemical probe for SET and MYND domain-containing protein 2 (SMYD2), a lysine methyl transferase inhibitor that dimethylates histone H3K36 and methylates histone H3K4. SMYD2 also methylates Lys-370 of p53, leading to decreased DNA-binding activity. SMYD2 is over-expressed in several cancers with poor prognosis. BAY-598 inhibits in vitro methylation of p53K370 with an IC50 value of 27 nM and in cells with an IC50 value ﹤ 1 µM. BAY-598 is more than 100-fold selective over other histone methyltransferases and non-epigenetic targets. BAY-598 can be used with in vivo experiments.
