Application
RG108: A Non-Nucleoside DNA Methyltransferase (DNMT) Inhibitor
DNA methylation regulates epigenetic gene expression in normal and malignant cells. N-phthaloyl-L-tryptophan (RG108) is a non-nucleoside DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitor. RG108 significantly reduces the methylation of genomic DNA in cells without any detectable toxicity, distinguishing it from nucleoside-based DNA DNMT inhibitors like 5-azacytidine [A2033], 5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine [A2232] and zebularine [Z0022]. RG108 is useful for the experimental modulation of epigenetic gene regulation.
