A-395N is a control probe for A-395, which is a chemical probe for polycomb protein EED. A-395 is a potent and selective chemical probe for the polycomb protein EED (embryonic ectoderm development), an essential component of Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2), involved in transcriptional repression through methylation of histone H3K27. A-395N is structurally similar, but exhibits no activity in the biochemical and cellular assays, so is an ideal control compound. For characterization details of the active probe, A-395, please visit the A-395 probe summary on the Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) website.A-395, the active enantiomer, is available from Sigma.
