Description: Histone KDM inhibitor; cell permeable
Chemical Name: N-[2-(2-Pyridinyl)-6-(1,2,4,5-tetrahydro-3H-3-benzazepin-3-yl)-4-pyrimidinyl]-β-alanine ethyl ester
Purity: ≥99% (HPLC)
Biological Activity for GSK J4
GSK J4 is a histone lysine demethylase (KDM) inhibitor; blocks demethylation of histone H3K27. Attenuates lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced proinflammatory cytokine production in primary human macrophages (IC50 = 9 μM for the inhibition of TNFα release). Cell permeable. Ethyl ester derivative of GSK J1.
Negative Control also available.
Licensing Information
This probe is supplied in conjunction with the Structural Genomics Consortium. For further characterization details of GSK J4, a cell permeable derivative of GSK J1, please visit the GSK J1 probe summary on the SGC website.
