p53-Binding protein 1 (53BP1) binds to dimethylated lysine 20 on histone 4 (H4K20me2) via tandem tudor domains on a 53BP1 homodimer.1 This interaction is an important part of the DNA damage response.1 UNC2170 is a micromolar ligand of 53BP1 that binds to a pocket formed by the tandem tudor domains.2 It displays at least 17-fold selectivity for 53BP1 over other methyl-lysine binding proteins.2 UNC2170 functions as a 53BP1 antagonist in cellular lysates and shows cellular activity by suppressing class switch recombination, a process which requires a functional 53BP1 tudor domain.2 | [Uses]
UNC-2170 maleate is the maleate salt form of UNC-2170 (HY-115531). UNC-2170 maleate is a selective inhibitor for the methyl-lysine binding protein 53BP1, with IC50 of 29 μM and Kd of 22 μM. UNC-2170 maleate shows at least 17-fold selectivity for 53BP1 as compared to nine other methyl-lysine (Kme) reader proteins. 53BP1 is a Kme binding protein that plays a central role in DNA Damage Repair (DDR) pathways and is recruited to sites of double-strand breaks (DSB)[1]. | [References]
