Biological Activity

Description C646 is an inhibitor for histone acetyltransferase, and inhibits p300 with a Ki of 400 nM in a cell-free assay. Preferentially selective for p300 versus other acetyltransferases. C646 induces cell cycle arrest, apoptosis and autophagy.
Features Extensively used as a pharmacologic probe in cancer cells. Potential use for prostate and lung cancers.
Targets
p300/CBP [1]
(Cell-free assay)
400 nM(Ki)
In vitro
In vitro C646 is an inhibitor for histone acetyltransferase, inhibits p300 with a Ki of 400 nM and is selective versus other acetyltransferases. C646 produces 86% inhibition of p300 in vitro at 10 μM. C646 is a classical reversible p300 inhibitor. C646 treatment (25μM) reduces histone H3 and H4 acetylation levels and abrogates TSA-induced acetylation in cells. [1] C646 (20μM) induces apoptosis in androgen-sensitive and castration-resistant prostate cancer cell lines by interfering with AR and NF-kB pathways. [2] C646 blocks dynamic acetylation of H3K4me3 globally in mouse and fly cells, and locally across the promoter and start-site of inducible genes in the mouse, thereby disrupting RNA polymerase II association and the activation of these genes. [3]
Kinase Assay Radioactive assay
IC50 values for the putative p300 HAT inhibitors are determined using the direct radioactive assay described above. Reactions are performed in 20 mM HEPES (pH 7.9), and contained 5 mM DTT, 80μM EDTA, 40μg/ml BSA, 100μM H4-15, and 5 nM p300. Putative inhibitors are added over a range of concentrations, with DMSO concentration kept constant (<5%). Reactions are incubated at 30°C for 10 min, then initiated with addition of a 1:1 mixture of 12C-acetyl-CoA and 14C-acetyl-CoA to 20 mM. After 10 min at 30°C, reactions are quenched with 14% SDS (w/v). All concentrations are screened in duplicate. Gels are run, washed, dried, and exposed to a PhosphorImager plate, and production of Ac-H4-15 quantified to obtain IC50s.
Cell Research Cell lines C3H10T1/2
Concentrations ~25 μM
Incubation Time 1 to 3 hr
Method Histone acetylation assays in mouse cells. C3H10T1/2 mouse fibroblasts are grown in DMEM with 10% FCS at 37°C with 6% CO2. Confluent cultures are rendered quiescent in DMEM with 0.5% FCS for 18-20 hr prior to treatment. Cells are treated with the following compounds: TSA (10 ng/ml [33 nM]), C646 (25 μM), C37 (25 μM). Antibodies are used at the following concentrations: total H3 (1:10000; ab7834; Abcam); H4K12ac (1:2500; 06-761; Upstate). Rabbit anti-H3K9ac (1:10000) antibodies are generated in-house. Histones are isolated from cells by acid extraction, separated by SDS and acid-urea polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and analyzed by western blotting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question 1:
I am planning to conduct IP studies in mice, any specific vehicle that you can recommend to me?

Answer:
We found it can be dissolved in 5% DMSO+30% PEG 300+ddH2O at 1 mg/ml as a clear solution. It should be ok for i.p. injection.
